Springmaid Mountain Retreat & Stables recensioner

This resort has a beautiful view and is very spacious. Fishing, horse riding, swimming, rafting... We would probably go back.

We had a fantastic girls’ weekend! The two trail rides were amazing - so beautiful! The horses were steady and sweet enough for beginner riders on a moderate trail through water and on steep hills and also interesting enough for intermediate riders. Lacey and Kaitlyn are fantastic guides - professional, responsive, and friendly. Our cabin was clean and comfortable. The covered porch and view was perfect for hanging out any time of day. We are headed back in a couple months and it will definitely br a regular weekend getaway location for us.

Adorable cabin, beautiful well kept grounds, friendly staff. We really enjoyed our horseback ride with Catlin as our guide. Shecwas fun to be with. And a great sport as it was raining. We all got soaked, but still had a great time

A very beautiful place. Exceptional maintained. The grounds and facilities very clean. We stayed 2 nights in a 24 foot RV. Went for a trail ride with Lacey. She was a joy to be with and made the ride safe and enjoyable. I highly recommend this place and we will return.

Whispering Pines Cabins are no longer surrounded by pines or trees of any sort. It was a real disappointment to arrive at the resort and see our cabins baking in the hot July sun, when we were looking forward to some cool shade among the trees. The back porch was unusable because it was in the sun just about all day. Thank goodness the cabin was air conditioned. The manager explained that the trees were diseased and had to come down and they were going to plant more. It would have been nice to know that before we checked in, along with the fact that the internet cable had been ripped up by the construction equipment which affected the wifi and TV. The manager did take off a day's lodging amount for the problems.

We've been here before and knew we'd have fun again. The teens always enjoy the horseback riding! The fishing was non existent, so we didn't bother with our poles. While we ended up not doing the tubing, we saw MANY other people enjoying the river. We love our little cabin getaway in NC! Everyone who works here is AMAZING, a shout out to KateLynn our horseback guide (and her helper, Christy I believe?) We stay here as our basecamp for our NC gem hunting. It's beautiful! The hiking is one of our favorite things to do as well. We hope to go back again!

We enjoyed a cool getaway in the mountains. A wonderful, and large piece of property, with lots of hiking/horse trails, a river running through and waterfalls. The mountain views are beautiful, and it is peaceful to watch the horses in the pastures, or take a trail ride. There is constant upkeep going on to the many trails, roads and cabins. The cabin we stayed in was fine- it was a cabin and not much more. It was clean and we were able to cook and get wifi. The campground is nicely wooded and has a great bathhouse. Cute downtown Spruce Pine is about 15 twisty minutes driving away, and has a nice restaurant or two. It is close to many great other hiking spots, but we found no need to leave the property.

Great property great value! With the gurgle of the river, scenery, privacy & herd of beautiful horses in the field below we didn't want to leave the rocking chairs on the porch of our beautiful cabin. It was soo relaxing. A variety of great food options are close by in Spruce Pine. The stocked ponds guarantee anyone a trout diner & for more challenging fishing the whole valley of private riverfront is an anglers dream. We loved to take a walk on the really neat dirt road that follows the river to the tubing launch each evening. The cabins are very nice and the staff is super helpful & attentive. We had great little nearby side trips to the NC Mining Museum, gem mine tours, BRP scenic overlooks, Linville falls & a day trip to tour the Biltmore/Asheville an hour away. We didn't get to the horse rides or tubing this time but will be back too for sure.

The cabin was set up perfectly with all the amenities thought through. Very clean and comfortable and in a perfect spot. Staff are so friendly and welcoming. Back porch looking over the pond was very peaceful.

Very convenient to everything. The place we stayed at was in need of fixes and felt run down especially for the price. Bathroom was dirty and was need of repairs. The cabin was very roomy and spacious.

This is a lovely piece of property and campground. The bathhouse was very clean, lots of hot water in showers, and they have washer/dryer. The people in the office could not be friendlier or more helpful. We had a great stay there during the peak of Fall color! We stayed in the campground and can't comment on the lodge or cabins they have. That's why I rated the hotel amenities as "Not sure"

After a super hot summer we were looking for a cool getaway without a long drive. We found it at Springmaid Mt. Our cabin was great and updated with a/c and a tankless hot water heater. The outdoor seating was beautiful polywood furniture. The grounds were well maintained and everyone was so friendly. We walked miles everyday around the property. The Blue Ridge Parkway access was nearby and Spruce Pine is a cute little town with some good restaurants. And our cabin was pet friendly so our dog got to join us! He didn't want to leave when it was time to go! We will be back!

I booked a cabin for a family vacation with my daughters and grandson and it was pure perfection. Way beyond our expectations, the property and cabins offer a very peaceful getaway and we spent some of our time there planning our return. Great central location to many must see places along the Blue Ridge Parkway as well and our next stay will definitely be much longer!

Very professionally procedure to get on the trail on time. Wavers signed and helmets were given. After the group was gathered with the horses, instructions were given. I have been to another horseback riding excursion in the Smokey Mtns and was given basic instructions. I felt these were more detailed, easily understood,and I learned a lot! I'm a beginner Absolutely recommended!
