Wonderful quiet getaway.
The property has a rich history and charm to spare, however, it is now for sale and is a shadow of what it once was. Having been there before, we were disappointed in how few amenities it now offers. The pre check-in emails did disclose there was no longer a restaurant on property but we were disappointed to find Folgers k-cups and box cereal as the only on-site breakfast options. There was no staff for check-in and the key was taped to the front door when we arrived. The spa was fully booked, with limited staff, but still worth the trip. We would recommend staying there, because of the location and charm, but book it knowing it feels more like staying in a vacant house rather than the resort spa it once was.
Had a wonderful weekend staying at the Westglow Mansion! The mansion was beautifully decorated and immaculate. All the comforts of home were provided. Just a short drive to downtown Blowing Rock. Enjoyed both days relaxing at the Westglow Spa and finished the weekend with amazing massages. We will definitely be back!
The property is beautiful and the spa is fabulous. Any issue, question or concern we had was addressed promptly. We will be back.
