We stopped in town on our way to Cherokee to rest for the night. Our remote was confusing to us so the gentleman who works there helped my husband figure it out and he was soooo nice and so patient. The room was perfect, cozy and clean. All we needed. My son and I even walked through town and there was a band playing by the riverside. Apparently they do it every Friday night. Really great stay. Will definitely stay again

This was the first time I spent some quality time in downtown Sylva and we really enjoyed it. Lulu's on Main has amazing food, Jenna at the wine bar was awesome, the breweries were good and we enjoyed the variety of the shops. We also enjoyed the Jackson County River Walk, I kayaked on nearby Bear Lake and we hiked off the Blue Ridge Parkway. All in all its a great spot that we will come back to again.

Great small town with a fun, historic Main Street Downtown.

Great small town with a fun, historic Main Street Downtown. We enjoyed looking through the antique shops, music store and Berlin Wall Museum. Got several recommendations to check out the City Lights Bookstore with Cedric the cat. We ran out of time, but will stop in next time. Great little Eateries here too! Check out the Lazy Hiker Brewing company and Mad Batter restaurant!

Sylva is a small scenic town in southwestern North Carolina.

Sylva is a small scenic town in southwestern North Carolina. You can walk the sidewalks and visit the shops without having to drive. There are a couple of places that make their own beer if you're into that. A lot of places are closed on Monday, so keep that in mind.

Sylva is a beautiful town nestled in a valley, the folks are friendly and welcoming, and the mountains all around are stunning. We were there during peak leaf season and just loved it. There are restaurants and shops and exhibits in the downtown area that make exploring and dining there fun. The old courthouse-turned-library is a must see, and you have to visit Baxley's if you like chocolate. We drove up to Pinnacle Park and walked a little way up the trail (it needs hiking shoes, which we didn't have) and were able to see pretty cascading streams and a lot of beautiful leaves. The City Lights Cafe (we got the Crepedilla and the Spinach chicken wrap) and the Balsam Falls Brewing Company (we got the Veggiepalooza wrap with shredded chicken) were so tasty and friendly that we went to both of them twice. The Blue Ridge Inn was situated perfectly for convenient parking and walking throughout the town. The town is very walk friendly, with crossing lights everywhere, and motorists who were polite and careful. We also visited the nearby Museum of the Housecat, and just loved that too. Sylva is a great central spot for exploring the area.

We enjoyed our stay at the Florio. The host was extremely responsive and got back to us quickly with any questions we had prior to our stay. The tiny house was easy to find, reasonably priced, and provided us a restful night on our way to the Smoky Mountain National Park. The kitchen was nicely stocked so I was able to prepare a meal when we arrived and enjoy our morning coffee. During our road trip, our stay here was the best nights sleep we got. So much nicer than any of the hotels we stayed at.

Everything. It was amazing. I only wish we had more time to enjoy it. We were busy with college orientation, so we did not get to enjoy all of the wonderful things that the apartment offered. The host was absolutely wonderful and helped us with information about the area. Could not have dreamed of a better place.
