Renovated in 2016, the Marshall House Inn is a unique mansion built as a private residence in 1903 and listed on the national register of historic places. Designed by the supervising architect of the Biltmore Estate, Richard Sharp Smith, the house is built in the English vernacular style. The house was converted into a ‘Tourist Home’ in the 1920s and has been welcoming guests to Marshall ever since.

This was the perfect place for a quick stop in Marshall. Every detail was so thoughtfully considered and it made it feel like a home away from home. The common areas had plenty of entertainment for couples or families but it was also perfect as a solo traveller. It's also super central to everything so you can just ditch the car and enjoy the town. I look forward to coming back as often as I'm able.

This Inn has it all The Innkeepers at Marshall House Inn have thought of everything anyone could possibly need for an intimate and luxurious stay. Beautiful linen sheets and thick sweet smelling towels. My room had everything I needed down to qtips and a hair dryer.

The view of the lovely, slow paced town of Marshall is just the cherry... read more read less

We decided to stay... read more read less

It doesn't get better than this. The Inn is full of thoughtful detail, generous amenities, and exquisite taste. Stepping out onto the grandiose victorian front deck you can see the town from above in it's entirety, and they've preserved the home such that there's pure continuity on your very short walk into town from your room. You won't regret a trip to Marshall House Inn!

We stayed for 1 night at the Marshall house Inn. It was awesome! Lovely home and really nice couple that run the Inn. Our family of 4 really enjoyed our stay very much. We loved the town too - cute and quaint with a few nice restaurants and shops.
