Grandfather Mountain 2012

[chemist93]

For motels in the area, the Pixie is at the foot of the mountain in Linville. If you want fancy, the hotel Esseola Inn has a few rooms $300/night. There are a couple motels in Foscoe, Hidden Valley and Smoketree. Linville Falls has some cabins, motels, houses for rent. A few motels on NC 181 in Pineola round it out. The nearest chain hotels are in Boone & Blowing Rock. If you're going to commute between Blowing Rock and Macrae Meadows, drive the BRP. And for some, there's the BRP campground at Linville Falls. For some new visitors, US 221 between Blowing Rock and Linville can be a problem if you have a large RV or camper. Lots of sharp curves.
