Echo Mountain Inn
Hendersonville, NC
Echo Mountain Inn is one of our larger venue partners. Conveniently located in beautiful Laurel Park, NC, this location is perfect for all of our NC, SC, TN, VA, and even WV guests!
The owners of this inn are special to us, and take great personal joy in providing space for other special needs and adoptive parents like themselves. Echo Mountain Inn is a Premier Level Porch Partner.
Enjoy B&B type luxurious rooms, and more casual motel-style rooms in their "Little Echo" addition!
ALSO OPEN FOR PRIVATE GROUPS, please inquire if you'd be interested!
The main Manor House rooms are NOT ADA accessible. There are several main level rooms which are easily accessible, but still require one or two steps. The "Little Echo" rooms, which are part of a motel-style extension, do have fully ground level access. The Pool is also accessible.
