New owner, new name: Green River Lodge

The room looked like the photo. This is an old style motel with a wonderful view. Not all rooms get the view but all rooms get access to the view. Our room had a back door that led to the common back yard with the view, a fire pit, and a sauna. If we stayed a second night we would have tried both but tonight it was storming. There were some problems with the room but in the morning we spoke with the new owner, a local. She is getting repairs done and has plans to restore Appalachian character. It is close enough to the highway that you can hear some trucks. The driveway is a one way loop and the GPS tried to take us past the entrance. Look for the sign with the new name.
The view over the green river.

Stayed here the night before dropping our kids at a nearby sleepaway camp and it was great! We were in one of the original rooms - no frills, but was clean, fresh and had comfortable beds. The backyard overlook area has breathtaking views and lots of great outdoor furniture and games to enjoy. Loved the little town of Saluda just down the road for dinner and shopping!

We stayed for only 1 night but everything went very well, nice quate location, beautiful view from hotel porch, room was clean, A/C a bit noisy and not cooling well, but for us it was OK. Overall it's a good place place to stay for a couple nights.

Early Blue is a gem!!! Stunning views of the mountains. Crazy convenient to Saluda, Tryon and Hendersonville. Staff are friendly, and helpful answering any questions we had. We will definitely be going back soon! Can't wait to see the leaves change in the fall. Make sure to get a view of the mountains with access to the courtyard. You'll love it!

My wife and I stayed at the Early Blue Motel this past weekend, and we had a great experience. The check-in process was simple and straightforward, which got our stay off to a smooth start. The motel’s location is very convenient, being close to the town of Saluda, NC, and easy access to Interstate 26 made traveling easy. The room was spotless, which we appreciated, but the highlight of our stay was the breathtaking view. It's absolutely stunning and undoubtedly the best reason to stay here. We’re already planning to return so we can enjoy the scenery in different seasons. Check-out was just as smooth as check-in, making the entire process hassle-free. We highly recommend Early Blue Motel for anyone looking for a clean, convenient, and scenic getaway!

10/10 Exceptional

I found the stay to be quite peaceful. Standing on the top of the mountain early in the morning, taking in the air & view was unparalleled to any place I’ve stayed before. Going down the mountains to the river and seeing how crystal clear it was & listening to the flowing water. The small town restaurants down the road had great food. Will definitely recommend and return to this stay

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful mountain view, but didn't get what is the difference between with view or not as all the rooms standing in the raw and you can see actually beautiful view only went out of the room.
