Refined utility in North Carolina.

What it's like

Inside Rhode's, a hearth warms the chalet-style lobby while pool games and friendly banter fill the cozy den. On the expansive front porch, rocking chairs and communal tables set the stage for long conversations under mountain skies. From drive-up convenience to upper-level balconies, every guestroom faces the rolling Blue Ridge Mountains. The result? A social hub that feels both timelessly familiar and refreshingly current.

Independent spirit

Because mountain views deserve modern rooms.

Small touches

Handcrafted headboards anchor plush king- and queen-sized beds, while North Carolina artwork brings local spirit to each room. Well-planned storage and modern amenities—from Bluetooth speakers and Smart TVs to in-room safes and mini-fridges—make every space functional. Choose between guestrooms designed for lounging or equipped for productivity, each thoughtfully configured for your mountain stay.

Eat and drink

Coming in late spring 2025, Over Yonder Boone will anchor the dining experience at Rhode's Motor Lodge. Led by celebrated local restaurateur Chef Andy Long, this new outpost of his beloved restaurant will serve inspired Appalachian cuisine for lunch and dinner daily. While the restaurant is getting ready to open, guests can browse the onsite market, stocked with local craft beers and regional wines, or explore Boone's vibrant dining scene just minutes away.
