Beautiful property. Very friendly and accommodating. So quiet and comfortable. The seasons restaurant was delicious. One of the best we have been to. We went both nights. A little pricey but worth it. Service and food was the best. I had pork chop, next night salmon. The pool was very nice too. Felt great on a hot afternoon. Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing!!! Peaceful

Wonderful place for rest and relaxation. Went for our wedding anniversary and loved every minute. We stayed in the Woodard House room 7 Exceptionally clean. So cozy, just like home. From the kitchen, to the living room area, to our room, every single detail was outstanding. (Only thing to mention, when heat kicked on in our room it was kind of noisy and woke us up during night) The breakfast at Season's was amazing. Cooked fresh and staff was so nice. The grounds well kept and clean. Enjoyed canoeing on the lake amd the swings. Walked the trails and enjoyed the peace and quiet. The goats and sheep were a nice cute added bonus. Exceptional place to stay. We've already discussed maybe staying next years anniversary as well. I highly recommend.

The place to stay if your ever in Flat Rock, NC

Stayed in the Woodward House, the room was charming and comfortable. Breakfast was very good. Went in the off season so many amenities were not available. The grounds were well kept. We were able to enjoy the peaceful surroundings and had a great experience staying there.

Charming Resort

This was a calming and peaceful stay, everyone was so gracious. The room was country charming and very clean. The grounds are beautiful, and restaurants and store is close by. The restaurant on site was fantastic, the buffet for New Year’s Eve was wonderful and so is the complimentary buffet breakfast. We will definitely be back

It was in a beautiful setting. The breakfast hot brunch was good and plentiful. The room was quiet and clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The location was close to Brevard, Hendersonville, and Lake Lure. Flat Rock had a very good restaurant (huba huba ) with great brisket. There was also a bakery that had good food and two cute shops all in a town square. We liked the jump off rock park for a great view, the St Johns in the wilderness historical church and cemetary and Carl Sandburg house. Al in all a great stay.
