Getting around

Because Saluda is a mountain town, guests should expect some hills and may prefer to drive when carrying bags, traveling with young children, or heading out after dark. A car is recommended for exploring the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains, Green River Gorge, hiking areas, waterfalls, Lake Lure, Hendersonville, and Asheville. The property also offers convenient access to the main roads leading in and out of Saluda, making day trips simple while still giving you a peaceful place to return to after a full day of exploring.
