As a landmark from the days when horse-drawn wagons traveled the roads of Ashe County, North Carolina, there still stands a special place called the Buffalo Tavern, circa 1872. People in the area know of it as the "large white house on Buffalo Road" and many of them know of the rich and fascinating history surrounding the home. Today, it's an inviting Bed and Breakfast for guests to call "home" while they enjoy the many activities of North Carolina's High Country. It's also a place where guests can choose to do nothing at all. The Buffalo Tavern is truely one-of-a-kind. With gracious accommodations for your visit to the High Country and close proximity to Jefferson, Boone, Blowing Rock, Banner Elk, Sugar and Beech Mountains, and Todd, Buffalo Tavern is just the right place to be.

The Buffalo Tavern features 3 large guest rooms and a beautiful three room suite each with their own unique feeling from the era of days gone by. All rooms feature a private bath with shower, queen size bed, an electric fireplace, and a compact disc player. Satellite television and wireless Internet is also available. All rooms have a two-person antique claw foot soaking tub and beautiful wooden floors from the days when the tavern was built. The suite has carpet.

For the perfect escape come relax on the front porch and enjoy the beautiful mountains. Please take a closer look on www.BuffaloTavern.com.
