This place is absolutely amazing. If you want a true mountain get away… we absolutely loved it here. TJ was so hospitable. It is very close to the charming town. 5 minutes from Sylva.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Dillsboro Inn. TJ was welcoming and his Inn was spectacular! We enjoyed the river, and enjoyed some great restaurants like Beach Mountain for breakfast and Haywood’s Smokehouse for dinner. We will definitely be back to this peaceful little hideaway.
