Hendersonville NC Lodging: B&B’s that are beautiful
Hendersonville has always been a popular tourist destination, boasting elegant B&B’s like the Claddagh Inn (listed in the National Register of Historic Places) the Melange Inn and Gardens, and the Copper Crest Resort and Spa on Osceola Lake. And in a recent poll, Hendersonville was voted one of the best places in America to retire. Although it looks like any other quaint little town on the surface, it is actually a rare melting pot of people and cultures. To its credit, Hendersonville managed to enter the 21st Century without sacrificing the charm and authentic personality of a 1950s Appalachian town.
The Callddagh Inn is an elegantly appointed house, built in the late 1800s, and it was the very first bed and breakfast inn in Hendersonville. The current owners have restored it to an immaculate condition, and it is close to all the local attractions of historic Hendersonville. The Malange Inn has great gardens, and guests can be found strolling in them from early morning to late in the evening, especially on lovely summer nights when the magnolia blossoms scent the air. The Copper Crest, on the outskirts of town, is a magnificent place resembling a castle, with a 40 acre lake next to it. And Hendersonville also has campgrounds, cabins for rent, summer homes that rent by the week, and several chain style hotels and motels, to accommodate visitors all year around, especially during the peak tourist season of autumn when apples are harvested here.
