The inn keepers were very welcoming, attentive and informative. The lodge and surrounding trails were beautiful. The room was impeccably clean. Loved sitting out back on the deck watching the many birds and squirrels. The breakfasts were awesome. The location couldn't be better as it was close enough to the interstate that everything was easily accessible. Biltmore Park and the... More

My boyfriend and I absolutely loved this place. Unfortunately, we could only stop here on a road trip, arriving late at night and leaving the next morning after breakfast. In the morning, Doug and Jodee showed us a hike route leaving directly from the lodge and let us take our coffee mugs with us. Then they prepared a delicious, wholesome... More

My wife and I stayed here for our 13th Anniversary and had a fabulous trip. The lodge was lovely, with peaceful quiet all around. We enjoyed the breakfasts immensely and love the slightly out-of-the-way location from downtown, while close enough to enjoy everything Asheville has to offer. We'll definitely go again! More

We stay in B & B's often. The website for Bent Creek is very good, but it should let you know not to make any noise. The common area is very nice...but only should be used to read a book or have a small conversation. There were 3 couples playing cards on New Years Eve at 10:30, and we got... More

Thanks for the review and especially for the three 5 star ratings. I wish Trip Advisor could average those correctly. You are correct, the lodge, like most BnB's and hotels, is not perfectly sound proofed which is why I reminded you to be aware that there were others in the lodge. I know that is difficult on New Year's and... More

Beautiful property. The room was very comfortable with private bath. The common area was a great place to lounge, read, watch tv or play pool. The breakfast was excellent each day and the owners were helpful and friendly. More

Bent Creek Lodge is a not your traditional B&B, but a 'lodge'. It is fairly new, built for the B&B business, and has spacious living areas on both the main and lower floors. These common areas are nice and comfortable to hang out in. The lodge is located in a wooded area, up the hill in a secluded development. Our... More

The promotional photo does not belie Bent Creek Lodge’s setting nor appearance. It is just as beautiful, and the setting as serene as it appears to be. The inn is fairly new, built for the B&B business, with spacious living areas on both the main and lower floors. The fireplace is inviting, and the decks along the back of the... More

This is our only poor review ever on any directory and it is not factual! Although the reviewer described the overall appearance, setting, atmosphere and breakfast fairly and generously the description of the bed is just not honest. The bed is as described on our website, Queen size. It is a fairly new, Kingsdown, medium firm mattress that has had... More

My husband I stayed at the lodge while visiting family in Asheville. We stayed in an upstairs room with lovely views and outdoor seating. The room was pleasant and very clean, screens on the door and windows if you love fresh air. The breakfasts were excellent. If you are looking for a large room filled with Victorian antiques and brocade,... More

Bent Creek Lodge is a very traditional B&B in that the rooms are sparse (no comfortable sitting chairs for reading, etc), but the common areas are very nice/comfortable -- pushing folks out of their rooms into social situations. The downstairs deck is especially nice and all of the downstairs rooms have entrances from this deck...the upstairs deck is narrow with... More

This free standing house next to the Bent Creek Lodge is like visiting your friend's mountain home, which they call a "cabin". The high ceilings and windows with stone fireplace and large open spaces are spectacular. The house is in meticulous condition and decorated like a craft gallery. There are 2 outdoor decks, an outdoor grill and hottub. It sleeps... More
