We had a relaxing evening at the spa enjoying the Dead Sea treatment with massages and a soak in the wood-fired tub. It was amazing. We would recommend it to everyone and will definitely come back and stay at the resort! We even asked about dinner options in the area, and the on-site chef went out of her way to make us dinner even though we were past the cut off time for orders. It was absolutely amazing! Best service you could ever ask for!

This resort truly focuses on customizing and elevating the guest experience—and it shows in every detail. There is so much to mention, and honestly, nothing negative at all. First, the views are absolutely breathtaking. The entire property is spotless, and the accommodations are incredibly comfortable and relaxing. The food was delicious, and the concierge service was completely on point. The staff is always welcoming, smiling & always asking if everything is ok. The spa experience was unforgettable. We did the magnesium bath under the stars with champagne , which was so peaceful and unique. We also enjoyed massages—wow, we were beyond relaxed afterward. The sauna was clean, warm, and very well maintained. Our stay was exactly what we needed. We relaxed, read books, and even had the chance to chat with the owner about the history of the resort, which made the experience even more special. It was so amazing that we’re already planning to return to celebrate my birthday because the atmosphere is incredibly tranquil. If you’re looking to relax, disconnect, and unwind—but still want excellent concierge service—this is the perfect place. Plus, it’s only 10 minutes from downtown Bryson City. Highly recommend!

My wife decided to do something for our anniversary, and my birthday. When we arrived at the resort, there was an immediate peace that surrounded this place. We stayed in the lost cove and it was quaint and had everything we needed to satisfy our relaxation. The breakfast and dinner were amazing. You get great portions and it’s cooked and ready almost as soon as you walk in. We did the soak at night under the stars and that was awesome! The couples massage was amazing! The staff at the resort are one hundred percent committed to you. They are friendly, courteous, and professional. The staff offered options of things to do in Bryson City. (We went to High Test to grab a homemade ice cream sandwich but they were closed.) Overall. It’s a ten for us. Thank you for the hospitality and next time, we will come during the summer so we may take part in the excursions that you can book while there.

Freaking amazing! Only bad thing is, now I’m spoiled and have a higher standard for our romantic weekend getaways. We felt so welcomed and loved the community vibe. But also felt like we had the entire place to ourselves. It’s magical. The food is amazing. We absolutely loved Mel-she’s the coolest. We did a couples massage with the warm air blowing through the whole time. Took a scenic drive along the river, about 45mins to a good hike. Met a lot of Appalachian trail hikers and stopped in NOC for lunch (rivers end).

Longview lived up to the great reviews! Accommodations (we stayed in Mollies Ridge) are cosy, beautifully decorated and stocked with everything you need to make a simple meal. Take advantage of Chef Haley's cooking. We had a spectacular dinner for a very reasonable price and the included breakfast is delicious. All home made, fresh and lots of options. We enjoyed the sauna and cold plunge at the spa and loved that we had the space to ourselves. An excellent stay for our small family!

My husband and I absolutely loved our stay at the Longview Resort. The property is stunning, with beautiful grounds and incredible views. Jaclyn, Hailey, and Ellie were amazing and made us feel so welcomed. And the food…truly exceptional. Breakfast was the perfect start to each day, and I highly recommend dining at the resort; everything we had was delicious. We also enjoyed massages and time in the sauna, which made the weekend feel extra relaxing and special. It was truly the perfect getaway. Highly recommend.

This place is spectacular!! WOW FACTOR from start to finish of our stay. It was so good that we booked a whole week stay for our next trip before we left!! We stayed at the lodge for a weekend getaway and had the best time ever. The staff are all incredible and so helpful. They are also very knowledgeable about the area. We were looking for ideas and they offered to set up an itinerary for us based on our likes. The breakfast was amazing and had a lot of great options. It was different each morning. The view was breathtaking! Sitting outside and overlooking the mountains while you eat your breakfast was fantastic. We will be staying in the cabins on our next trip. They took us up and showed us one before we booked our week to make sure it was what we were looking for too! If you’re looking for a phenomenal place to stay in the mountains, you have found it here.

We stayed there for our 30th wedding anniversary. We even took our beloved dog with us. The place was amazing, the views unforgettable. We got snowed in due to the weather and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we were as comfortable as humanly possible. Even our elder dog had a blast. She sadly passed away a couple of weeks later due to a preexisting heart condition. And we'll be forever grateful we got to spend the most magical weekend with her at the resort.
