I really enjoyed my stay at Ridgeway Inn in Blowing Rock. The location is fantastic, with easy access to the charming shops and restaurants in town. The accommodations are comfortable and have a rustic feel, although there were a few maintenance issues. The complimentary breakfast was sufficient for one morning, but I would recommend exploring local options if staying longer. Overall, it was a relaxing getaway with a warm atmosphere. 😊🏞️

I had high hopes for my stay, especially with the beautiful location just steps from Main Street. The room I was in was spacious and had a lovely wood ceiling, but it felt like some updates were long overdue. Overall, the ambiance lacked the charm I remembered, and the service left much to be desired. I'll be considering other options next time I visit Blowing Rock.

However, the service left much to be desired, with inconsistent attention to details like room supplies. I appreciated the evening wine and cheese, but it was quite basic and not as inviting as it could have been.
