Very close to all the restaurants/shops. Was able to park right in front of our room for easy loading/unloading. This place has a charming mountain cabin feel to it. The King Suite was great including a small kitchen and an "L" shaped couch area.

LIKES: Cute exterior. Nice king bed. Quiet, safe. DISLIKES: Musty odor and damp air in room the entire 3 days there. A/C did not cool room well. Large bulky furniture in small room. No chair, just a small hard couch with low back (and we are small in size).

The only negative was the condition of the bed mattress. It was very soft, lumpy and worn-out. I did not sleep well because of it.

This was our second stay at The Hemlock Inn. The rooms have a small refrigerator, a microwave, a full-size drip coffee maker, pottery coffee mugs, and real wine glasses. The location is perfect, as the Hemlock is just one building away from Main Street Blowing Rock, so it’s an easy walk to all the charming shops and many great restaurants in downtown, and very near the city park. We could hear the live music from nearby Town Tavern if outside in the evenings. The decor is rustic, and some might find it a little dated, but we don’t mind it. They have a big gazebo outside with a gas fire pit that feels nice on chilly evenings. It is a locally owned business with super friendly staff who will get you anything you need right away. Landscaping is lovely. My only suggestions would be that a little extra shelf space in bathroom would be useful, and a place to stash all the throw pillows on the bed at night would be helpful. There was not a closet, but there was a hanging rod which was plenty long enough for all our clothes for a three-night stay, and I brought lots of extra clothes because we hiked in the mornings, and mountain weather is always unpredictable. They provide shampoo, conditioner, soaps, paper towels, hair dryer. They provide coffee, too, but we brought our own. I think it’s a great value for the price for such good service and a prime location. Not having to find a parking space is Blowing Rock is a major plus! Would definitely stay here again.
