Super location with Mountain views that are breath taking.... However, The over-all first impression of the B&B was not very inviting....upon our arrival, we were not greeted in the lodge, there appeared to be no one around. We did call out for a response, and finally a man came out of his office. He did not introduce himself, and our... More

The location is very nice, and it was scenic. The man (I think he was the owner) that showed us our room was not very friendly. That is OK, we could deal with that. However, when we arrived in our room we were overwhelmed with the odor of what I suspect was an extreme overuse of a cleaning product, perhaps... More

If you like B&B's that have paper thin walls, dogs barking through the night, a do-it-yourself breakfast, and a curmudgeon for a host -- all for the exalted price of $137 a night -- welcome to your dream lodge. When my wife and I entered the (alleged) B&B it appeared empty save for an elderly guest lying on the sofa... More

The Property and views are beautiful. Bonnie is warm and hospitable but Jesse does, however, truly seem bothered by having guests at the property. We had rented rooms for the past 7+ years - same weekend/ same rooms for a family reunion. Last year, our parents (80's) cancelled their room 2 weeks in advance due to illness. The room was... More

Great view and comfortable physical plant, but Jesse almost seemed bothered by having guests and seldom had any inclination to communicate unless he was echoing Fox news which he seemed to watch all day, monopolizing the "lounge" area. Breakfast was a joke. Paper plates with kid sized individual cereal boxes and frozen bagels. Great location and view, but I wouldn't... More

We stayed at Bent Mountain Lodge whilst cruising the Blue Ridge Parkway. It is way off the beaten track at the top of a mountain, but if you follow the directions supplied it is easy to find. The lodge itself is most luxurious and our room was spacious, clean and had every amenity we wished for. The hosts were helpful... More

Jesse & Bonnie Lawrence have done a wonderful job "renewing" this great B&B. Views of the parkway and surrounding mountains are exceptional. The lodge and surrounding acres just seem to go on and on. Rooms are well done and common areas very spacious. We look forward to visiting again when the Fall colors are out. Mary & Mike, Williamsburg, VA

I was looking at these reviews and I am very shocked at the responses that bent mountain has gotten. I'm having my wedding at the lodge this coming August. I have met and spoke with Jesse several times and has always been very kind to us and always very willing to help anyway he can. Very time the lodge has... More

My wife has allergies. After arrival (and payment for 3 nights), the odors from strong cleaning products used combined with dampness of the basement suite made it impossible for us to stay. We expected to forfeit our $50 deposit, but the owner demanded payment for an additional night. He returned our credit card payment less $200 in the form of... More
