1 Eseeola Lodge

4.7 Superb 65 Reviews

175 Linville Avenue, Linville

“It was absolutely amazing and peaceful. Best message I have ever had at the Spa. Rooms: Clean and accommodating. Colonial charm. Walkability: Everything was within walking distance of 5 to 7 minutes. Food & drinks: The food was amazing. We tried several items and enjoyed everything. I do not typically order steak as I always seemed to get disappointed. I had the Prime NY Strip, and it was perfectly cooked and as tender and juicy as it should be. Absolutely fantastic!”

“They have a extensive menu with many choices. On a busy Sunday morning, we were seated quickly, but had to wait a while for a waitress to come and take our order. Oddly, they offered coffee immediately, but not water. When the server brought our food, we asked for water, and it took a while. We were half way through our meal before water arrived. My wife had a mushroom based omelet which was disappointing because it was not very substantial, mushrooms barely noticeable, mostly red pepper and egg, fried on both sides. I had better luck with the waffle which was tasty with chopped fresh strawberries sprinkled on top. We asked for coffee refill, which was delayed by the need to brew a new pot. As compensation, the restaurant gave us 2 large coffees to go.”
