The Hummingbird Lounge at Old Edwards Inn & Spa

Whether you unwind indoors by a stone hearth or explore the natural wonders all around, it doesn’t take long to realize a trip to Old Edwards Inn & Spa can be almost anything you want it to be. Located on the southern plateau of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this Old-World refuge sits in the heart of lively Highlands, North Carolina.

Although built in 1878, the original red brick structure has been enhanced with modern amenities that create an opulent feel in an idyllic mountain setting. Owners Art and Angela Williams have added a spa, wellness center, and heated mineral pools.
