From the minute we walked in and met Mary the Inn keeper then we saw the room with the fireplace huge Jacuzzi tub. The next morning woke up and chef Donna was preparing our breakfast, then sitting down with other guests for great conversation and the last day we had million dollar bacon….fantastic. The biggest  room I’ve ever stayed in the place is an absolute 10!!   I would stay again.

Million Dollar Bacon

We spent 3 delightful days at the Inn in Room #1 in late November 2023.  The space in this suite is amazing, the bed was comfy, and the bathroom was super.  Mary the Innkeeper greeted us enthusiastically, welcoming us into her Inn, and conducted a personal tour of the place.  (The Christmas decorations were outstanding!)  Donna (our awesome cook) treated us very well, had the coffee ready by 6:30 am, and was always ready to accommodate our wishes.  She is also a wealth of historical information.  Be sure to check out the courtyard. This is a place we will visit again, and we have added it to our Special Hotels list.  Our only regret is that we didn't have time to use the fireplace or the soaking Jacuzzi tub!  Sincere thanks to Mary and Donna for a memorable experience.  

We Will Be Back!

We are a family of two adults, a teenager and a golden retriever.  I was more than pleased with our stay. We enjoyed our room, the environment, the courtyard and breakfasts immensely. 

The only staff we came in contact was our chef extraordinaire, Donna. She was so accommodating, she probably would’ve done a cartwheel if we asked her to!  We noticed her extra efforts to all guests, inclining vegans and vegetarians.  She was kind enough to allow us to bring an extra guest to breakfast on our last day.  She personally escorted us to make sure we knew how to access the courtyard that all of us, especially our young dog, enjoyed. 

The room, bathroom, cozy robes, fireplace were oh-so-nice. I would note that if your older or have knee issues, you may not be comfortable with the loft ladder. The decor in all areas is top-notch.  I typically choose the most modern places to stay, but was intrigued by the old firehouse and am so glad we made this choice. I will definitely be back!

Don’t miss an opportunity to experience The Firehouse Inn

We had a luxurious stay at The Firehouse Inn.  My mom wanted to come up and see the fall leaves and we chose this inn due to it having a ground floor room available.  The only caveat was that Mom still had to climb the stairs to access the main common area and breakfast room, but she did so just fine taking her time and holding the rail.  Room 6 on the ground floor with its own entry door is a veritable apartment!  We spread out in 600 sq feet of living space and could have slept 4 more people in our room [two queen beds and two single beds].  We had a table and chairs, a living area with a TV, a giant closet, dressing area, and a fridge and microwave.  I cannot say enough about Donna and the breakfasts.  She is a delight who not only cooks gourmet breakfasts, she tells you all about the inn and the recipes and is so kind and personable.  Each morning, breakfast was delicious and hearty and kept us full until supper time.  The inn is decorated in tasteful furnishings, lighting, and wall coverings.  The linens are comfy and high end.  There is a lovely patio with tables and strings of lights where we sat one evening to have a glass of wine.  The common area has a large fireplace with gas logs, access to ice, wine glasses, snacks, and water.  We will be back!

Donna and her breakfasts and the inn decor are the stars of this Inn!

We had such an enjoyable stay at the Firehouse Inn. Accommodations were comfortable and cozy. Much care was taken with cleanliness and decor.  To top it off breakfast both days was amazing. Donna, our chef, was fabulous and made us all feel like we were family.  We would highly recommend a stay here.

Firehouse to Inn

I have never stayed in a bed and breakfast where you never met the owner. No one lives on site so I find that odd. With a B and B you expect to have a more personable stay to find out about the area and the history of the Inn. The only people we met was someone who gave us the key. Its a good thing she was there because the key was not in the mail box like expected. Also the person cooking breakfast was very nice and friendly. 

The place is clean and had most things you would expect. 

Lets talk breakfast since it is half of what you pay for. They did accommodate one persons food allergies. But to say the least they were underwhelming. 
The first day was scrambled eggs, toast and bacon. The next day was egg puffs, sausage and toast. You expect things you would not prepare yourself at home. Just an FYI for the owner. 

Also there is a beautiful courtyard that NO ONE tells you about and we went looking for. Had to go through 2 closed doors with all the lights off. Not very welcoming. This should be a highlight of the grounds.

Not your normal B and B

The room was spacious and comfortable, and perfect for traveling with a dog.  The breakfast space was similarly beautiful and the food delicious and well presented.  The chef was really nice and helpful about what to see in the area. The locations is great for walking in town to coffee shops and Kidsenses.

Gorgeous, comfortable and pet-friendly

We went to the Firehouse Inn for the first time to celebrate a belated anniversary getaway.  What a great place!  Our room was #1 and the king bed was extra comfortable.  There was a nice sitting couch in front if you wanted to watch tv, plus an area with a desk and chair..  A huge walk in closet that used to be a vault.  Plus the bathroom was huge!  Giant soaking tub and a shower plus separate areas to get ready.  The chef Donna was a fantastic cook and super friendly too!  Her blueberry French toast, spinach frittata, fresh fruit, and maple cayenne bacon was a big hit.  The place is so beautiful and very clean.  You can walk down the road to grab a bite to eat whether it is some pizza or some ice cream near by  and there are some cute shops in town.  We will definitely return again!  It was a great location to drive out to other areas like Chimney Rock, Hendersonville, and Saluda.  

Wonderful Place for a Get Away in the Mountains!

Room 1 with extra space. Donna and Tahlia alway make you feel at home. I often don’t need lunch Donna makes such a delicious filling breakfast. Location is convenient to town, bike paths, walking trails and Lake Lure.

Home away from home

Juat completed my first stay at the firehouse inn. Family had stayed there before but this was my first personal visit. I thoroughly enjoyed the property and proximity to the Tryon International Equestrian Center. We stayed in Room 6 which had lots of character and plenty of room. The private entrance was a nice bonus. A special thanks to Donna for serving up some great breakfasts. Not sure when we will be down in the area again but you all will be at the top of our list for places to stay - hopefully the blueberry French toast will be back on the menu!!!
