I recently stayed at this delightful inn on my journey down the parkway and really enjoyed it. The manager, Stephen, was extremely helpful. The room was quaint, clean, and comfortable. And the view of the pond was unobstructed. This place is aptly named - it really is on the side of a cliff, so all the rooms have a great view with a balcony. I understand the current ownership is fairly new, so older reviews should be read with that in mind. I only stayed one night, but if I travel in that area again, I'll make this place my base of operations.

Stephen and the Cliff Dwellers team provided us with a SUPERIOR experience in Blowing Rock! It definitely seems as though they have turned the Inn around, for the better. Our room was clean and had a fresh coat of paint, new linens, was spacious and had a great private deck with a beautiful view of the mountains. The Cliff Dwellers Inn team was very friendly and helpful, and made wonderful suggestions for sites to see and restaurants. The Inn's location was perfect too! It's only about 1 mile from downtown Blowing Rock, one mile from the outlet mall, and just minutes to Boone, Banner Elk, and Grandfather Mountain. We had an amazing time and will definitely be revisiting Cliff Dwellers Inn in the near future!

It had been over 4 years since I last stayed here at the Cliff Dwellers Inn and after reading a few negative reviews, I had no idea what I was going to be getting into. Hands down to the Inn Keeper and all whom care for this cozy place because I enjoyed every minute. The Inn keeper was very pleasant, helpful and very polite. The room itself was cozy, clean and had a homey feel and the HEAVY continental breakfast was unbelievable! There was not a negative aspect at all....I can not wait to go back. Thank you Cliff Dwellers!

We prepaid for an expensive jacuzzi suite, and after a long day of traveling arrived to find a ghost hotel. Not a guest in sight (all windows open, so you could see the rooms were empty), no one in the office, and no one answering the phone. When we tried to leave a message the voicemail box was full. It was empty, unkept, and very creepy.

There are many other nice hotels in Blowing Rock (we are now staying at Chetola; they saved the day, and were cheaper!), and are trying to get our money back. Save yourself the trouble and go somewhere else!
