"Lovely property right in the center of town so easy access to the restaurants and shops. The town was seasonal decorated & Blowing Rock Memorial Park was full of blooming flowers! We did drive to the local attractions like the Moses Cone Manor which was wonderful! Lots of trails for walking; did the very interesting ranger led tour of the Manor house. The Embers Inn itself was very clean & attractive, room was nice size with comfortable bed & usual amenities. The staff was very helpful and again the location was amazing! The Embers Restaurant for dinner was expensive but staff was very attentive. Only complaint, the Continental Breakfast is served only Mon - Fri and the Sat-Sun brunch is not included and pricey! This was not specified on the Expedia site which said it included breakfast & it did not say only weekdays!!"
