“Jason and

I had a wonderful stay at your inn last night...

We enjoyed a glass of wine before heading over for massages at Mike's (who was wonderful, and I highly recommend him).   We had a 90 minute special for two--worth double the price.   After that we enjoyed the whirlpool before indulging in a feast at Suba's.

This morning was another gourmet meal served in style. We loved the Rose Romance suite!!! 

We definitely will be back. Thank you for all your help and suggestions.  Our  anniversary will be one of great memories.”   ~Martie

History & Technology   
    The architect-designed house was built in 1889 by local labor in a Shingle style (American) Victorian style. Everything is hand-and custom-made the  innkeepers will tell you how they renovated it. Behind the historic plaster walls is modern technology.   This means modern bathrooms and individually-controlled central heat/air, wireless, phone lines, central vacuum system and cable TV. You will have the best of the past and the convenience of today (from wifi to cable) for your getaway or business stay in Mountain City, TN.

Location
    Prospect Hill Inn is minutes from Boone NC, Bristol, TN, Abingdon - Damascus, VA.--an easy drive from almost everywhere in the Southeast.
    
  Located on the edge of small-town Mountain City the inn is just minutes from awesome golf, biking, fly fishing, tours for scenery, shopping, rafting, horseback riding and hiking.


Get married here

  In addition to five guest rooms, the inn has a complete event facility, called The Pavilion, and garden with mountain views for weddings, family reunions, business getaways (great value compared to resorts) and private parties. Pavilion.

Access
    Room 1/Mountain Sunrise Room is on the first floor; all other rooms are on the second floor, reached by stairs. Entry into the inn via the Gallery/meeting room door has one step up; front porch has 7-8 steps. Parking is right outside the door. Once you are checked in we will guide you to the close-to-parking Gallery entry and use the dumb waiter to carry your luggage to the second floor. The dining room is also on the first floor along with two public restrooms.

    Prospect Hill Bed and Breakfast Inn is located in the Appalachian Mountains just north of Boone/Blowing Rock, NC--a unique rural mountain and valley area easily reachable from most parts of the Southeast.

Affordable Luxury:

  • Inside, every room was designed for enjoyment, function and privacy--many with whirlpool tubs. All have a fireplace (use in season).
  • Comfortable mattresses and decor artfully combine the eclectic and contemporary, leaning toward traditional styles. Second floor rooms have a queen bed.; Room 1 (first floor)  has a king.
  • Free bubbles ( bubble bath), candles and quiet time. Choice of rooms with whirlpool tubs, antique tub/modern shower or shower with pulsing shower head.
  • Enjoy a meal--or two or three--you didn't have to cook or plan. We make "killer" breakfasts  and we'll suggest great places to dine out for dinner.
  • How about uninterrupted movies, TV shows; time to read a book or snuggle. (TVs, many with VCR/DVD players, in every room.)
  • Sleep in for a change or take early coffee on the porch.
  • Nearby: our neighbors provide massages, horseback riding. and golf (regular and frisbee).
  • Breathe in lots of fresh mountain air and views. Hike in the woods, bike, horseback ride nearby. Enjoy creeks and mountain tops where it is cool and restful. We are near the Appalachian Trail and the Virginia Creeper (biking) Trail.

Go jump in the lake Watauga Lake or a mountain creek. Fishing available, too.

Sometimes a night or two away is all you need. Business travelers, too, enjoy the special care they receive at our inn.

  Sunrise Room 1 (king bed/2 fireplaces, private entrance)

     The area's natural beauty is the inn's best amenity. Mountain City is a small mid-century Tennessee town surrounded by mountain ranges, thousands of acres of Cherokee National Forest and scenic overlooks connected by barely traveled rural lanes. The inn is a short drive from pristine Watauga Lake, a wide variety of hiking trails, bicycling trails, horseback riding and auto touring. In winter go skiing, snow boarding or tubing. Shopping, museums, wineries and more restaurants are a short drive.


Start your day with a hearty breakfast (included).

relaxation and a delicious breakfast.”

Welcome old-house lovers

  Antique houses are our passion! We enjoy making them work like new ones with the "patina" of an old one. We're experienced old-house renovators who enjoyed the challenge of bringing the 1889 mansion into the 21st Century.
     You'll enjoy the best of an historic house but none of the old-house inconveniences!  Our decorating is eclectic—not fussy. You'll find clean lines and refined themes.

Family time / Pet Friendly Cottage in the Woods —Freestanding house rental located 9 miles from the inn, off hwy. 91, between Mountain city and Damascus, VA (virginia Creeper Trail and Appalachian Trail). See it.

Weather

  We have great weather! We have brisk days and crisp nights. Sometimes we'll have snow.  Hikes, biking, horseback riding and sightseeing are all more fun when the air refreshes you.

    The fall leaves in the region are some of the best in the Southeast. We anticipate a little snow this winter, making for beautiful drives, great tubing and skiing and lots of snuggling time.

    The Cottage in the Woods is at a higher elevation and has more snows than the inn.

Check current conditions

       Spring comes here gently, slowly and with subtle changes in the
roadside flowers and blooming trees. Summer means great weather IF you like it UNDER 90 degrees. We do not break the 90-degree barrier EVER..... our altitude and tree cover help. The inn is at 2500+ ft. elevation above sea level. The cottage is at 2950 ft. Feel the difference elevation makes.
