Little Switzerland is the quintessential 'sleepy little mountain town'. There's a quaint downtown with a great cafe, bookstore, and general store. While it seems remote, you're with 20 minutes of 'civilization' for groceries, gas and shopping. The Blue Parkway is minutes away providing access to an array of activities.

Get Away From It All

eddiebrinkman South Carolina
Review Submitted: September 22, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
Pictures cannot capture the coziness of this lodge. The week prior to arriving I saw it was to rain my weekend there. No matter, my intent was not to explore the many hiking trails available, nor peruse the nostalgic book store in "downtown" Little Switzerland, or any of the other many cool things to "do".

I needed rest.

The lodge is beautifully constructed so one does not hear the Trivial Pursuit game being played in the game room. Don't bother bringing any games, they're all here. Everything is here, in this house. All you need is fresh food.

Built onto the side of a mountain, you are one with the trees.

Cudos to the owners, you can feel the love put into the construction abd decor of this home.

Traveled back down the mountain feeling rested.

All I forgot to bring was my typewriter.

Good Value, Great Location

Dman Columbia, SC
Review Submitted: December 29, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2008
We arrived on Friday evening in early December after a leisurely trip from Columbia via Black Mountain, where we ate at a wonderful cafe in Cheshire Village called the Morning Glory Cafe. The directions were perfect and we had no trouble finding the property. The owners had let us know that a futon frame had gotten broken recently and that they were aware of it. We arrived in time to unpack, relax, visit Spruce Pine and stock up on breakfast supplies.

We had a wonderful dinner at the Mountain View Restaurant (NC 226 & NC 226A, where the Blue Ridge Parkway crosses - about 7-10 miles from the lodge - shorter when the Parkway is open). They make a great house apple walnut vinagrette and all the food was excellent, from Pasta Primavera w/shrimp to Chicken Parmigiana (a full chicken breast, not a cutlet) to a French cut pork chop to steak, service was attentive and helpful and just right. Prices are very good.

We went back to the lodge to plan our next day - studio hopping as part of the Toe River Arts Council (TRAC) studio tours. We visited Burnsville, loved the Yummy Mud Puddle (its owners have a band called Hot Duck Soup), the Amish store, and had a great time visiting the Energy Exchange which houses several studios (ceramics and glass) and a gallery on a former landfill. They use the methane from the landfill for power and have done so for about 10 years. We topped the day off with a visit to Nielander glass where we spent time with Joe and got to see his 12 year old son Duncan, who has been blowing glass since age 5. They are both great folks and very hospitable. Duncan is a charmer and has his work being sold at The Home of the Perfect Christmas Tree in Spruce Pine.

Our trip ended much too soon on Sunday as we had commitments at home. We went to St. Matthias Episcopal Church in Asheville, once a black church, but now a wonderfully welcoming melting pot for all.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the lodge. The owners communicated clearly and frequently and everything was as described. If you love peace & quiet, this location is ideal, especially in winter. We would highly recommend this property to anyone who wants peace, quiet, and an out of the way location that is still close enough to a myriad of wonderful activities and beautiful scenery.

A Great Time Had By All

PastorGlenn Salisbury, Maryland
Review Submitted: August 18, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
From the moment we arrived, the eight adults in our weekend gathering felt right at home. Everything was as described and more: clean, well-equiped, and very comfortable. The fresh mountain air greeted us each morning on the deck overlooking a wooded paradise. A hummingbird would join us for coffee as we prepared to leave to explore the area of Little Switzerland.

Our weekend, which celebrated my birthday with friends, included visits to Grandfather Mountain (excellent), the Moses Cone Center on the Blue Ridge Parkway (elegant), and the town of Blowing Rock, where we could simply sit at the park and people watch to our hearts' content.

But Little Switzerland Downtown is not to be missed and my birthday celebration at the Little Switzerland Cafe offered us excellent food and service in an atmosphere where community could be experienced even among strangers. We laughed and ate and enjoyed the live music that made the trout and bar-b-que taste even better.

Don't miss the bookstore with multiple levels and rooms where everyone seemed satisfied to browse and buy that new or old favorite that could be read back at the cottage on the deck. Where else could you buy a used book for $2.00 and get a free ice cream bar as a thank you from the owner?

Our four couples each had a bedroom with one more left unused just in case it was needed to get away from excessive snoring. The kitchen was very functional and the gas fireplace was used even though it was the middle of August. Games and entertainment made this home away from home a delight as we explored the mountains of North Carolina. If you need room for 10-12, this may be just the place for you. For the eight of us, it was the perfect place.
