ABOUT THE LOVILL HOUSE INN
Welcome to the Lovill House Inn, a historic treasure in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, near the Parkway, Appalachian State University, and downtown Boone. Built in 1875, this storied home was where the state charter for Appalachian State University was drafted in 1903, and it provided housing to some of the university’s first students.
Now a luxury bed and breakfast, the inn has been beautifully renovated, offering six elegant suites, a two-bedroom cabin, a historic barn and meticulously maintained gardens for unique events and intimate weddings.
Enjoy our organic breakfast and modern amenities, including covered parking under a solar canopy that powers the entire property—even during outages. Situated on 11 private acres, complete with hiking trails, a waterfall, and a mountain stream, the Lovill House Inn offers the perfect blend of mountain tranquility and in-town convenience. Discover the perfect mix of history, luxury, and sustainability at the Lovill House Inn—your home in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
