McKinley Edwards Inn

McKinley Edwards Inn

8/10 Good
"McKinley Edward's Inn is slightly rustic sitting in a beautiful mountain setting. It is clean, well kept, and the staff provided excellent service. The breakfast was delicious. It was a brief visit, but I would definitely consider another trip to Bryson City and the McKinley Edward's Inn."
