About

Laughing Heart Lodge B&B offers accommodations in its 7 lovingly renovated rooms (all with private baths) with exceptional mountain or lovely forest views.

Story

Laughing Heart Lodge in Hot Springs, NC, opened in August of 2012 after extensive renovation. It is a wonderful facility for retreats, family gatherings, weddings, and events as well as being available to individual guests as a bed and breakfast. The lodge is a great place for relaxing, a romantic getaway, and to enjoy the beauty of our surrounding sacred mountains in our small, quaint mountain town. Our vision includes hosting a variety of retreats in addition to providing peaceful lodging to travelers. We are excited about our endeavors.

The lodge was built in 1892 and, for over 50 years, was a Jesuit Retreat Center. Today, Laughing Heart Lodge offers accommodations in its 7 lovingly renovated rooms (all with private baths) with exceptional mountain views or lovely forest views. At the edge of our 8 acres, Laughing Heart Hostel (located at the trailhead of the Appalachian Trail) includes very affordable lodging for hikers and other visitors to Hot Springs. Next to the Hostel is our cabin with a loft bedroom, available to individual guests August through February.
Adjacent to the Lodge is the chapel which is a great space for retreat sessions, yoga, group meetings, receptions, mountain weddings, family reunions, and other functions.

Reviews
I stayed at the hostel, not the main lodge. The hostel itself is nothing fancy but great for backpackers who are looking for a shower, bunk, and laundry room. There are large bunk rooms as well as more private double occupancy rooms. The manager was very friendly and allowed me to pay some cash as well as do some work around the grounds in exchange for my stay.

As a rookie section hiker, this was the perfect place to stay. Everone was so friendly and helpful!

This hostel was clean and well run, while being more on the no frills end of things. They have private/single rooms at a good price, and that includes morning coffee and access to a hiker kitchen. Very conveniently located right on the AT.

Very peaceful and comfortable surroundings - stayed in the Cardinal Room with a wonderful view overlooking the front lawn and the mountains. Every inch of the lodge is unique and inviting. Guests have access to a shelf in the kitchen refrigerator and the ice maker which is very handy. It was unseasonably hot and the common areas were not air conditioned. There was a window unit in the dining room where breakfast was served but it was not turned on. Breakfast was adequate and self-serve.
