Brook Trout Inn

"I stayed at The Brook Trout Inn twice this month (January) because it was reasonably priced and super convenient for my work at nearby Bad Creek. Both rooms were very clean, cozy and quiet...perfect for crashing after long work days. The beds were comfortable with great linens and good pillows. The bathrooms are compact, but clean with good water pressure for hot showers. Parking was easy and right outside the building. Check-in and check-out were contactless, but not impersonal with owner, Julie, texting me with perfect instructions, letting me know where the keys were and which building I was in. The Inn is close to restaurants in nearby Cashiers & Toxaway. This will be my go-to for future stays in the area."

"Very peaceful and relaxing place to stay, super clean as well. Will definitely visit again. Julie does a super job and is very helpful in planning your visit!"

"High fives and big thanks to Julie, Heather and Lori at Brook Trout Inn. Great property, super clean room and the customer service was excellent. Lori cooked us eggs for breakfast and bacon for my husband. She took the time to share maps to all the falls in the area. Best 3 star hotel/Inn by far. We will be back next year!"

"Rooms are super cool. Staff was above and beyond with hospitality. This area is packed so don't assume you'll just find a spot if you go towards the end of August beginning of September. We only got lucky and someone canceled and they called and offered us a room. If you can find a room. Here during your travels I don't think you can do any better for the price."

"Trip from Sapphire -> Cashiers -> Highlands over a long weekend ... the Brook Trout Inn was our first accommodation along the way, and we couldn't have asked for more. (We'd never been to this area of NC so didn't quite know what to expect.) This place is directly off the main drag, and is run by a husband and wife with a small team to assist. Julie (the owner) was as sweet as pie, and each morning greeted us in the dining area, offering to prepare our bacon and eggs in any style. This was probably the best aspect of our stay. She was happy to talk with us endlessly, and quick to make an outline of all thing things we could do during our stay. The continental breakfast area was always available for guest use, we really loved that; we played hours of Uno there of an evening. The property is close enough to the main road that you can hear traffic, but the noise was tolerable, and it was not constant. This did not bother us, and would not deter us from another stay here, ever. I fail to understand any review which is four stars or less, people will complain about everything. The accommodations were priced just right ... we stayed in high-season (July) and were quite pleased by what we paid. The Brook Trout Inn exceeded our expectations in every way."
