There was no hot water for the two days we stayed. They offered no concession. The mattresses were soft, worn and uncomfortable. The sheets were thin and pilled. I would never stay there again or recommend this property.

We love visiting Blowing Rock. Our first weekend stay in this little town. Hillwinds Inn is a quaint and retro place. My husband and I felt like we stepping back in time when we walked in. Was within walking distance to all of shopping and dining. There were some plumbing issues that we did let management know of. Mattresses could be replaced. Overall would recommend!
