What does lodging look like at the Waynesville Inn & Golf Club?
The Waynesville Inn & Golf Club offers three beautiful on-site lodges:
The Historic Inn (main lodge),
Golf View Lodge, and the
Brookside Lodge.
Larger families will find the Golf View Lodge ideal, as it offers connecting rooms. The Brookside Lodge offers a third option for guests looking for a more private, quieter stay with a motel-chic atmosphere.
