This Inn was an amazing place to stay. Not your typical B&B. Breakfast were full meuns of your choice, no just cold (stale) cereal. The Inn keeper and his staff were very attentive and helpful. Hightly recommend. We plan to stay there again in the future.

My wife and I enjoyed another great visit to Hendersonville and the Waverly Inn. The downtown location is fantastic to take advantage of the main street attractions. The breakfast is amazing. The front porch is the place to be for a relaxing evening. We look forward to our next visit.

We only stayed for one night but enjoyed the hospitality and the evening Happy Hour. Rooms were excellent. We didn’t get a chance to have breakfast because we were leaving early, but the staff prepared a parfait for us in the morning. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and upstairs balcony.
