Nice, quaint place in a good location. The street noise can be a bit loud but it wasn't awful. The walls in the room are very thin so you can hear the other people in the adjacent rooms a bit too much.

A lovely property made up of 3-4 buildings each with a few accommodations. We had a 2 bedroom family unit that was very comfortable, clean and perfect for 4. The lodge is very nice and accessible at all times to guest with a fire, games, books and tea/coffe

Nice overnight stay
The Inn is a quaint comfortable hotel. The 2 staff I met were lovely…..welcoming and kind. But the inside and out needed a good cleaning. Floors, windows, porch, blinds, steps….bathroom needed to be cleaned.

The property and staff are great. The room was nice and very clean. The only thing that was a negative is the walls are not very sound proof. We could hear everything next door and very glad that we had ear plugs. However, we would definitely stay here again.

Cozy Mountain Getaway
I travel for work 270 days out of a year, and this is hands down one of our absolute favorite places to stay when traveling. The place is such a cozy little getaway, rooms are rustic and spotless. It is super quiet, and I conveniently located right off of Highway 64. Julia is so welcoming, friendly and our most recent stay she cooked us breakfast to order. She keeps the commons area beside the office well stocked with goodies for breakfast! How many other places do you get breakfast cooked FOR YOU? I surely can’t think of one. Thank you for such exceptional customer service. As always, I will look forward to the next time. Highly highly recommend.

Just what a mountain getaway stay should be like. Cozy mountain-look and feel. Clean! Amazing bed, linens and towels. We loved the “lodge” like breakfast setting. Lots of room, cozy atmosphere. Keurig coffee butler, stocked fridge with fresh milk and chilled fruits. You can cook your own eggs on a griddle just the way you like. We met wonderful and interesting people from all over. Lori and Heather (staff) were accommodating and available. The Sapphire Valley is stunning with lots of great hiking, good food and shopping. We say book it and save the “hiltons” for other trips.

Decent if you don't get Room 302
Overall, this was a decent place to stay. The staff was very friendly, and the breakfast area was nicely decorated. However, I think we got the worst room on the property. Room 302 is downstairs, behind the building, next to the laundry and dumpster. This room is dark and very musty smelling. The beds were not comfortable. That particular room felt like an afterthought and a place to simply book one more guest. We couldn't help but feel we got the worst room on the property. I think other rooms would be a much better experience, though we did not get to see inside any. Breakfast was...okay. The location was nice and right off Hwy 64, so that was helpful. We would go back if we could guarantee never to stay in that room again.

Response from Julie on 12 Jun,2023
Hi Bradley, I’m sorry your experience in that room wasn’t the best… you’re right, that room does have more of a “basement feel” which is different from our other rooms, but that is why it has a lower price point from our other family suites also. It does have a kitchenette and a covered porch which people enjoy. Definitely pros and cons. We will try to get you in a different family suite next time you come.

This is a great choice! Very clean, the staff is amazing, and we had a great time at the fire pit! I would also recommend making a reservation at Osteria del Monte next door and walk to an amazing Italian meal!

Highly recommend!
I have stayed at Brook Trout Inn numerous times with my wife and often as a family. The owners and staff of this hotel are amazing! Super friendly and they really want to do what they can to make your stay as comfortable and relaxing as possible. One unique thing about this place is the community kitchen that is stocked with all things breakfast that you prepare yourself. Though some may not want to have to cook their own breakfast, it is a way to talk with others about things they have done in the area to get to know about places you may not have otherwise. They have a Keurig for coffee in the kitchen and did in our room as well. We stay here whenever we can when going to the Cashiers-Highlands-Sapphire area!
