Wedding weekend

Our group of 5 stayed here so that we could attend a wedding in Saluda. This home is walking distance to the Main Street of the town, where there is shopping and restaurants. The house was perfectly laid out to accommodate our group and provide privacy when needed, but adequate space to gather and sit when we wanted to hang out together. Kitchen was well equipped, beds were comfortable, and the screen porch is fabulous. I would highly recommend this property.

Tree Blew Inn

It has a nice, open layout and is very clean. We were given the wrong entry code, but that was fixed with a phone call. There also seemed to be some confusion about the address in Google Maps.
