Nice spot. A little bit of an older motel that could probably use some freshening up on the inside (longer or better black out drapes, windows that open more easily, upgraded towels, but the outside is very cute and seems to have been recently repainted. Bowling Rock is a charming town and this lodging makes walking everywhere a breeze. Recommend and it is perfectly fine.

Great stay! Room was very clean, bed was so comfortable! Easy walk to shops and restaurants. We were very impressed with the accomodations. We had an end unit so the extra window was very nice. I rated 4/5 for condition only because the rug seems to have suffered water damage at some point. Management seems very attentive and I'm sure it will be taken care of. We would definitely stay here again!

Nice little motel

The Blowing Rock Motel was very cute and in a good location. We enjoyed being able to walk to nearby businesses. We also enjoyed the gas fire pit that was available.
