Amazing B&B in Ashville, NC Beautiful and comfortable room with a balcony featuring a terrific view. Breakfast was one of the best ever in our extensive B&B experience. Hoping to return with a group of friends as Bent Creek Lodge is a perfect location for a gathering. Don’t miss the NC Arborium just a couple of mikes away in addition to all the other charms of the mountains and the Blue Ridge Parkway.
