Great place to stay in a great location. Rooms are dated but it's okay, it's an older lodge. They were very clean. Everyone was super friendly. The outside of the building needs a little love, but don't let that fool you. Would absolutely stay here again!

I usually stay at the Smoketree Lodge when Im visiting the High Country. It is conviently located on Hwy 105 near Boone and the Avery county ski slopes. The staff are courteous and the rates are affordable. It also boasts an indoor pool and jacuzzi which is primo for after ski relaxing.
