Innkeeper Note

More than a bed and breakfast — with inn guest rooms, private getaway cottages, fine dining and great wines, organic gardens and unique gifts all at the inn — and, of course, breakfast. The Mast Farm Inn is a NC mountain inn, bed and breakfast plus dinner, in historic Valle Crucis, which has been welcoming guests since the 1800s. While there have been improvements — like tubs-for-two, air conditioning, contemporary cuisine and fine wines at the inn — the hospitality remains the same, attentive and sincere. Come make yourself at home at the inn in your choice of bed and breakfast rooms or cabins. The inn is near Boone and Blowing Rock.

We cannot say enough good stuff about the Mast Farm Inn. Awesome food. Helpful, friendly, hospitable staff. The uniqueness of the cabins and the rooms at the inn are wonderful. We've stayed here 2 years in a row and loved it each time.
