Mountains, Beauty and Butterflies

It's more than a getaway, it' a destination - with lots of natural beauty! Blue Ridge Parkway, NC

We all enjoyed nature around us.

The North Carolina mountains are truly splendid. We've had an amazing trip liveblogging @RiverHouseInn where you are treated as royalty. Whether you're planning a family getaway or a retreat away, River House Inn is accommodating. The amenities there are unmatched in most B & Bs even.

There there is the sheer locale. River House is just off of the Blue Ridge Parkway. We had a blast hiking there one day and even playing with these beautiful butterflies.


Now we're settling into reality and missing our whole European Getaway right here in the North Carolina mountains. And school has begun!

Warmly,

Best North Carolina Mountains Bed & Breakfast

We're still shouting it from the Mountain Top, River House Inn is the Best North Carolina Mountains Bed and Breakfast!

Let's talk about the best restaurant on the western slope. River House Inn's Restaurant is first-class on any account. Check out our first evening. Here's the family waiting to be seated for dinner. Awesome way to wait your table wouldn't you think!

Tiger B about to try Chilled Potato Leek Soup. And he loved it! :)


Are you ready? Here is Tiger A with his FIlet Mignon! You'd think he grew up with it in his baby cereal.... he called it marvelous! Loved it.


This is Carolina Mama's amazing polenta and I'm reaching for my menu to give you the full details because it was that good. The South of France has nothing on the River House Inn.

Then morning came and the Tigers got to explore, in their robes and then drink their room delivered Hot Chocolate which began another splendid day in the North Carolina mountains including the Cascades Falls.

Enter for the Greeting Cards Giveaway below. Hurry they're customized! See you tomorrow. There's more.

Proud of North Carolina's River House Inn

Places like River House Inn make North Carolina proud. This weekend we're are bringing you the "Best of Carolina" LiveBlogging the River House Inn. We're proud of North Carolina's Western Mountains. Take a look here and we'll keep you up to date all along the way.



Enjoy the beauty and the local charm of times gone by. We're looking forward to being unplugged minus the LiveBlogging and Tweets. No MP3s, no television, no video games, no iPod Touch, ... we're so ready to take in a deep breath of fresh mountain air while listening to the sound of silence.

I am thankful for a gorgeous state like North Carolina and the amazing River House Inn! and they are the host of our LiveBlogging the NC Mountains! For more vlogs go to Fort Thompson and join the fun!

Warmly,
