Hemlock Inn is an old style traditional inn located on the top of a mountain near Bryson City, NC. The inn keeper, Mort, keeps things simple and easygoing; his guests' comfort and satisfaction are his top priority. The rooms are clean, well outfitted, and all have direct access to the nature that surrounds the inn. Birds, wildlife and wild flowers... More

The Hemlock Inn is the first lodging I have ever given a five star rating and it is deserved. The Inn is owned and operated by Lainey and Mort White, Lainey grew up on the property and is the daughter of the previous owners who bought the Inn in 1968. Mort and Lainey treat every guest like family and many... More

If you are looking for a motel style place to stay with a TV and lots of noise....stop right now, this is not the place for you. This family style inn has a beautiful view of the mountains without the distractions of city life around you. There are small trails about the inn and no TV to distract you. The... More

My husband and I used to come stay at the Hemlock Inn to get away from the busy, stressful life we led in the Atlanta area. We not only came back as often as possible but began long-lasting friendships which still enrich us. We were comfortable, charmed, well-fed, and treated so courteously. The place attracts folks whose company we enjoy.

Hemlock Inn represents the best of Smoky Mountain culture -- friendly family familiarity, stunning views, saliva-inspiring food and comfortable quarters. The White family has managed Hemlock for ages, and their compassionate supervision provides a personal touch for every guest. You'll meet owner Mort at breakfast or dinner -- which, by the way, is a la carte, classic Southern dining. When... More

I have not personally stayed the night here, but I have family that stays here when they come to visit me. Why am I writing a review? To tell you about the food! We have had the good fortune to be a part of several meals served at the Hemlock Inn. Meals are family style and the food gets blessed!... More

The property has its flaws but we still loved it. It is quaint, has lots of atmosphere and is an interesting place to stay. In fact, we were delighted that we still had two unplanned nights in our itinerary and were able to book an additional night. Our room was clean and comfortable and situated at the end of the...

This was my second visit. I love this quaint mix of motel and b&b. We took our boys for the Polar Express package. This is the kind of place you build memories at. There are no tvs phones or wifi in the rooms. The rooms are your basic grandmothers home. The ONLY reason I couldn't do 5 star was the... More
