Great, quiet location
My wife and I had a great stay at The Post House, easy access to Main Street where most all the shops and restaurants are located, just one block away. There were a couple of small things that would have made our stay even better. Better lighting in the kitchen and room darkening shades for the bedroom windows, but very minor issues our stay was great and we have already booked for the fall next year.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. The Post House was absolutely perfect. It was clean and had everything we needed. We were able to walk everywhere in beautiful downtown Blowing Rock. We enjoyed visiting all the shops and dining in several restaurants. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch with a glass of wine. The Post House will certainly be our place to stay whenever we return to Blowing Rock. Judy and Glenn

Blowing Rock Stay
This was the perfect place for my husband and I to stay for our Blowing Rock getaway. the location was Perfect - we walked to dinner every night and all around town during the day. Also was close to Blue Ridge Parkway when we decided to venture out further. Bed was comfy, loved that there was an ice maker and the place was so clean.

Cozy Cottage
The Post House is in a fabulous location in Blowing Rock. The home has a cozy, homey feel. The kitchen had all the basics but if you really want to cook, listen to the host's advice and bring your favorite appliances/tools. Host pre-stay communication was very good.
