What people say

"Feel like royalty staying in America's only 5 star castle hotel, surrounded by the Pisgah and Cherokee National Forests. Book a private room at Smithmore Castle, or book the entire space for your special event. The castle also offers activities ranging from formal etiquette lessons to cave exploration and archery. NOTE: Smithmore Castle was among the many businesses impacted by the devastating Hurricane Helene that swept across Southern Appalachia on September 27, 2024. They have reopened and are receiving guests as of October 28, 2024. Please check their Facebook page for upcoming events and current updates prior to planning your stay. "
