10/10
This was a combo work/ play visit for me--3 days of work interspersed with hikes and enjoying the mountains. All my work was video calls and the internet was NO problem at all, if that is important to you.It was awesome to be able to take my lunch breaks on the deck overlooking the creek, and I definitely took advantage of the hot tub. Also amazing to be a quick drive into the Pisgah Forest for a hike after work.If you like to cook, you'll be happy with the kitchen. I found everything I needed.The bedroom loft was great and the bed itself really comfy. I kept the windows open every night and it was so nice to fall asleep and wake up to the sound of the creek.Hot Springs is trying hard to come back, though not everything is up and running just yet. I managed to grab a spot at the Hot Springs resort, and I stopped by Sara Jo's store almost every day (imagine finding hand made tamales and some locally made salsa!). A bit farther away is the Trust General Store and Cafe--I've eaten at the Cafe in the past and it's great (I missed their opening for the season by one day!). It's the perfect stop if you decide to hike Max Patch, as I did.Overall I loved my stay and I appreciate how easy it was to communicate with the owners.
