    Beautiful property. Great Bar and great food. Robert is as professional and friendly a bartender as you can hope for and Melissa, our server for dinner, was exceptional as well.

    So while this amazing Retreat is cited as $$$$ one must look deeper. First, the rate is all inclusive except for alcohol. Rate includes 3 meals per day , one of which is an AMAZING packed lunch for excursion stuff. Just sayin'. Zach, the new ownership leader is on it like a cheap suit. Accommodations are top shelf, sanitation trade is 100, staff is pleasant and on their game. If you want to relax there is no location in W Carolina mountains that will exceed. Oh, how could I forget...... I didn't. Dawnie is the bomb-a-licious. She will bust her hump to make your decompression stay nothing but chill. Carlos rocks the dining room with smiles. If ya wanna chill, enjoy nature, hike, kayak, paddle board, fly fish or just get down in chill town.....this is a hot spot for it. Can't wait to return and try more of Indigo Group's props.

    There are no words to describe how wonderful our stay was at Snowbird was. We heard about the Lodge thru friends who knew of our love for hiking and good food and wine and told us we had to visit. (They we're so right) From our arrival we were so impressed, we arrived and were taken right away to our room in the Chestnut Lodge. Our room was beautiful and the private porch and hot tub were amazing. We were fortunate to arrive on the night of a wine dinner, which was nothing short of phenomenal. We were greeted with champagne and a meet and greet and then an amazing 5 course meal with wine pairings. The next morning we hiked to the Lodges sunrise point and watched a beautiful sunrise then had the most amazing breakfast and then headed off to hike. (Snowbird packs a lunch for you each day, which you choose at dinner the night before.) The hot tub was welcome after a long day of hiking and dinner every night was amazing. The Inn Keepers Robert and Mandy and the entire staff were so attentive. Every single person who we came in contact with who worked at the Lodge was amazing. Did I mention the amazing selection of wines???!!! I could go on and on. Before we left we booked for the same time next year!!!! If that doesn't say it all I don't know what does. Thanks for a much much needed restful weekend! This busy Mom and Dad don't get much time away but this was so so good for the soul. Counting down the days until our next visit.

    Dinner after hiking the mountains...

    The best meals we've had at any lodge. From Eggs Benedict in the morning to Ravioli in a mushroom remoulade for dinner. We hiked 12 miles a day and gained 5 pounds... Everyone was great and all is covered under one price. Would recommend the Lodge to anyone...

    We booked a long weekend at Snowbird Mountain Lodge after seeing a story about it on WUNC's, "NC Weekend." Located near Nantahala National Forest, the Cherokee National Forest, and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park it is a perfect long weekend getaway. Be warned tho, it is a six hour ride from Raleigh. Your daily rate includes three meals a day (one being a picnic lunch in a backpack or paper sack) and use of a wide variety of sporting, fishing and boating equipment. Hiking, kayaking, and biking are all close by. The lodge is a beautiful building of post and beam constructed in the early 1940s. Rooms are spotless, wood paneled, fairly small, and offer great views of the mountains. It is definitely a place to relax as there are no TVs or telephones... The dining experience is described as rustic and elegant and it is exactly that. The cooked to order breakfasts were excellent. We had eggs benedict one morning, pancakes the next and a veggie omelet the third. The sack lunches were very good. You had a choice of four or five different sandwiches each day (including home made pimento cheese spread) along with chips, a pickle and a home made cookie. The four course dinners were very nice. Each evening you get the choice of a beef, chicken, fish and pork entree. I think the highlight was the local trout. Excellent! They have an excellent wine list, local beer on tap and a great selection of single malt scotch. The bartender is excellent! He free pours a mean drink. Be sure to pay him a visit. We visited over the 4th of July weekend and never felt crowded. The large main room and many porches/decks all offered great mountain views and inviting spots to relax. It was definitely a nice getaway.

    Grab a cold drink from the bar and head out to the porch swing to enjoy this view!

    Spent the weekend at Snowbird Mountain Lodge over July 4th and had a wonderful visit. Snowbird is located about as far West as you can get in North Carolina near Robbinsville. Accommodations range from rooms in the main lodge to creek-side cabins and cottages. Prices include all meals and the meals are good. During our stay breakfasts consisted of one main course such as an omelet or pancakes and then several sides such as bacon and grits. There were cereals, fruits, and yogurts also available in a buffet style. Sitting out on the porch was a great way to enjoy breakfast. Lunches are packed and ready for pickup each morning for you to take out on your daily adventure. The lunch includes a sammie, and you can add pickles, chips, fruit and cookies if you desire. The sandwich choices included a cucumber creamcheese on wheatberry that was excellent and an old fashion PB&J that was enjoyable after our hike. The amount of food and size of the sandwiches is sure to quell any post morning hiking activities and induce a blissful early afternoon nap. Dinner menu had a choice of beef, pork, chicken, fish or vegetarian that changed up daily. Each day the menu changes but includes these main meats. We enjoyed homemade lobster ravioli, steaks, mountain trout, and pork schnitzel - everything was delicious. You do not have to stay at Snowbird to eat in the restaurant, I believe the price fixed menu was about $35 per person. The food was good and the digs relaxing and beautiful - I would come back for another visit!

    My husband and I came here for dinner and enjoyed the idyllic, peaceful grounds before our reservation. We ordered the ginger and carrot soup which was delicious and the trout over jasmine rice. The trout was caught locally and was the freshest I have ever eaten. Absolutely delicious! Next time we will come and stay at the lodge overnight and enjoy all that it has to offer.

The room I was given is much smaller, there was only one bed, it was more expensive than the room I booked, it is noisy and the air conditioning was malfunctioning.

Got ready to check out, the clerk went to check our room, gave deposit back only to have me return it plus $50 fee for paying cash, and they had already charged my debit card another $50. So 1 room for 2 nights that should have cost me $249.97 (no problem) cost me $400! This hotel was not a $200 a night hotel by any stretch of the imagination! Giving a 2 star because staff was friendly and as helpful as they could be. I will not be back and not recommend this hotel to anyone.

I booked a room in the Lodge and check in was super far where the Lodge was. You have to drive all the way down to the front. Follow the signs!! It was alittle confusing at first. The Lodge room is like a hotel so that's why I picked it. I did not want a cabin or mini house in the area as they offer other kinds of rooms. The room was nice. It's a tiny outdated with the a/c but that's okay. There were ton of small tiny bugs in the room and also the lounge area on the first floor. There are no microwaves inside the room but there is a refrigerator. There is a tiny microwave on the first floor lounge area. Room service is alittle lacking as they don't make the bedsheets. This place can work on their house keeping and cleanliness of the lobby area. They keep their front doors and all doors open so it doesn't not have the best security. So definitely keep your room doors locked. There is a restaurant called Hazel's which I did not try but will next time I stay here. I can't wait to come back again!

It had a full kitchen with stove, oven microwave refrigerator, and sink. The AC was fantastic! The furniture was extremely comfortable, including the bed. Great shower and warm/hot water. There are hills and curves throughout the entire property. We were able to see Lightning bugs every night and it was a calm and relaxing stay. There is parking for trailers near the general store. We brought our motorcycle on a trailer. We parked the car and motorcycle at the cabin and the trailer at the parking next to the general store. We went to Quill's Cantina and enjoyed their food. They have souvenirs, coffee, and a Christmas store next to Quill's Cantina. We never made it to Hazel's restaurant. The pool was closed during our stay, unfortunately but there was a playground area available. You could also rent golf carts if you wanted to. We were minutes away from the Fontana Dam and the Marina. They have a gas station near the General Store too! This is a good place to stay and relax. There are motorcycle enthusiasts and car enthusiasts due to the roads in the area. 30 minutes to Robbinsville (nearest town) and 40 minutes to Bryson City.

Check in was easy and the person who checked me in was super friendly. Our room was clean and spacious. There was a mini fridge and microwave in the room. The bathroom had Dove body wash, shampoo, and conditioner dispensers in the shower which I liked better than the tiny bottles since my hair is long and I need a lot of product! The bed was pretty comfy and I liked they had pillows labeled as firm and soft on the pillow cases so you could easily find your preference. If you opt out of daily cleanings/towel changes/sheet changes, you get a point bonus which we opted to do since we were only there a couple nights. The only downfall was noise carried a bit through the door and walls. I could hear kids running around in the hall and TVs on a couple of times, but it was never enough to prevent me from falling asleep or wake me too early so not a big deal. They have complimentary breakfast, but I'm a late sleeper and not a big breakfast eater so I never checked out the offerings. Coffee was available in the room. Overall, we had a good stay here at a good price and I'd book this hotel again when visiting the area.
