We stayed for 4 nights and had the most amazing time. We loved the 'Southern hospitality' shown throughout, with Mary being so welcoming and keen to help. Donna put so much thought into making our breakfasts right for us, she is the loveliest lady ever! The building is beautiful and historic, and the huge lounge area that we were able to access made it extra special. Thank you for making our stay so special. x

I fell in love with the Firehouse Inn. We had the suite and there would be plenty of room for 6 people ( except 1 bathroom). Mary and Donna are such wonderful people and made us feel like we were at home. You can use the upstairs room to hang out and play games. Donna prepares a full breakfast at 8:30 that you don’t want to miss! I can’t wait to go back . 😄

I hosted a weekend here with friends to celebrate a birthday (8 of us). It was a lovely stay! We enjoyed walking around downtown Rutherfordton, the shops and restaurants. Everything is so beautiful for Christmas too! Rooms were lovely and Donna’s breakfasts were fabulous!!! Lots of space for us to hang out. The breakfast room was gorgeous for Christmas! Appreciated that we were stocked with water bottles and coffee/tea. Everything was clean and the rooms so nice. All of my friends thought it was a great place and we had an amazing few days! Highly recommend!

We had a luxurious stay at The Firehouse Inn. My mom wanted to come up and see the fall leaves and we chose this inn due to it having a ground floor room available. The only caveat was that Mom still had to climb the stairs to access the main common area and breakfast room, but she did so just fine taking her time and holding the rail. Room 6 on the ground floor with its own entry door is a veritable apartment! We spread out in 600 sq feet of living space and could have slept 4 more people in our room [two queen beds and two single beds]. We had a table and chairs, a living area with a TV, a giant closet, dressing area, and a fridge and microwave. I cannot say enough about Donna and the breakfasts. She is a delight who not only cooks gourmet breakfasts, she tells you all about the inn and the recipes and is so kind and personable. Each morning, breakfast was delicious and hearty and kept us full until supper time. The inn is decorated in tasteful furnishings, lighting, and wall coverings. The linens are comfy and high end. There is a lovely patio with tables and strings of lights where we sat one evening to have a glass of wine. The common area has a large fireplace with gas logs, access to ice, wine glasses, snacks, and water. We will be back!

What an amazing spot! The Firehouse Inn exudes charm and character! It’s a great spot if you want to stay outside of the larger nearby cities. Great restaurant across the street that you can walk to. Mary was phenomenal at check-in. Will definitely be back!

Very friendly, gracious and helpful staff. Great location within walking distance of restaurants and a coffee shop. Easy, free parking near the entrance. Historic Inn with comfortable rooms and a wonderful living room, breakfast room with refreshments. We'd happily stay there again.

My husband and I needed a getaway and booked a night at the inn. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The pancakes with fresh fruit and breakfast bowl were delicious. Mary , the Innkeeper and Donna, the breakfast chef were extremely friendly and accommodating. It was a great experience.

The Firehouse Inn is absolutely gorgeous and Kitty has paid attention to the details. We rented the entire inn for the weekend for grandparents, other family members, and groomsmen for a wedding in Forest City. We had the best time gathering together for breakfast at the 9 person round table sharing about the evening before and having a welcoming place to rest throughout the day. Donna made 2 fabulous breakfasts making sure everyone’s needs and wishes were met. We stayed in room 1. The bed was super comfortable and it was the perfect room to get ready for the parents of groom with an extra large closet and full length mirror. The location is great to walk shops, restaurants and hair salon(if needed for wedding). Staying at the inn made our wedding weekend even more memorable!
