Stay
Find the right accommodations for your next adventure in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina. Wake up to a stunning view of the surrounding mountains or the tranquil beauty of Lake James. Enjoy the iconic Swiss atmosphere of an escape to Little Switzerland. Book a room in one of the area’s charming small towns, or get away from it all at a remote retreat in Pisgah National Forest.
Vacation rentals, guest houses and cabins range from rustic hideaways to waterfront homes or luxury rentals in gated communities. Choose from intimate one-bedroom homes for a romantic weekend away, or book a house big enough for your family reunion, girlfriend getaway or celebration. Log homes, B&B inns and historic lodges conjure nostalgia for the hospitality of a time gone by.
Campgrounds offer visitors unique lodging experiences for both tent camping and RVing. Some sites offer only the essentials, while others feature amenities like full RV hookups, fishing ponds and playgrounds — even a putt-putt golf course or gold and gem mine!
Locally owned motels and popular national brand hotels welcome visitors near Interstate 40, and iconic inns near the Blue Ridge Parkway invite you to pull up a rocking chair and enjoy the Blue Ridge Mountain sunset.
