Located in a nineteenth-century building, this 4-star Highlands hotel features 18 rooms blending Appalachian and English country house styles. The Highlander Mountain House offers accommodations across two distinct areas: the Main House with Deluxe and Standard rooms, and the pet-friendly Bunkhouse. Each room includes Bellino linens, Wright mattresses, air conditioning, and flat-screen TVs with cable. The Ruffed Grouse Tavern serves regionally-influenced meals using seasonal Blue Ridge ingredients, accompanied by craft beers and organic wines. Common areas feature wood-burning fireplaces, marble-topped pub tables, and a curated collection of art and literature. The property provides complimentary bicycles, fly-rods, and Wellington boots for guest use. Situated 2132.5 ft from The Bascom Center for Visual Arts, the hotel stands near Nantahala National Forest and Chattahoochee National Forest, with Asheville Regional Airport 59 miles away.
