Welcome to Reynolds Mansion

Nearly 180 years of history.
A classically trained chef every morning.

Built in 1847, The Reynolds Mansion is one of fewer than ten pre-Civil War brick homes surviving in western North Carolina. Perched in a private mountain setting with panoramic Blue Ridge views, this is not a neighborhood inn — it is a retreat. Your innkeepers Paul and Mirlin Manshon bring over three decades of luxury hospitality experience to every detail of your stay.

✦

The Chef's Table

A classically trained chef-innkeeper serves a new four-course gourmet breakfast every morning. No eggs and toast. No buffet. A genuine culinary experience, included with every room.

❧

Warm & Personal

From the moment you arrive, Paul and Mirlin bring the warmth of genuine hospitality — not scripted service. Guests become returning friends. That is the Reynolds Mansion difference.

The Breakfast Experience

Not Eggs on Toast. A Four-Course Culinary Event.

Every morning, Chef Paul crafts a four-course gourmet breakfast that transforms a meal into a memory. Each dish is composed with the technique and creativity of someone who spent decades in world-class kitchens — and who chose to pour that expertise into a table for twenty instead of two hundred.

Stunning table settings, fresh seasonal ingredients, and a new menu daily. Guests don't just eat breakfast at The Reynolds Mansion — they anticipate it.

National Register of Historic Places

"Colonel" Daniel Reynolds built this imposing brick home on a knoll of Reynolds Mountain in 1847. One of fewer than ten pre-Civil War brick homes surviving in western North Carolina, it has endured nearly two centuries of storms, restorations, and the passage of time — and today it stands proud, in the hands of people who trained at the highest levels of global hospitality.

Guests aren't just sleeping in an old house. They're being personally hosted in a home that has witnessed nearly two centuries of American history.
