| Introduction |
|
As a landmark from the days when horse-drawn wagons traveled the roads of Ashe County, North Carolina, there still stands in the Buffalo Community 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 one-of-a-kind. The Buffalo Tavern Bed & Breakfast is located in beautiful Ashe County, in Northwestern North Carolina, and offers gracious accommodations for your visit to the High Country. With its 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 was a popular tavern (and some say brothel) in days gone by. Among its patrons were two early North Carolina Governors. It thrived during prohibition in the 1920's, and was THE PLACE to be. (Click here for more history) | ||
|
The Buffalo Tavern features 3 large guest rooms and a beautiful three room suite. The Madam's Room, and Flapper's Room are on the second floor along with the President's Suite. The Governor's Room is downstairs. All rooms feature a private bath with shower, queen size bed dressed with egyptian cotton sheets, a cozy down comforter, and four wonderfully-inviting pillows, a fireplace with gas logs (electric in the suite), and a compact disc player. Satellite television and wireless internet is 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 is carpeted. Each room has its own unique feeling from the era of days gone by. |
| A delicious full breakfast is served in the Americana Dining Room each morning. During cold mornings, the fireplace is lit. During warm weather, breakfast may be served on the front porch. Guests are asking what Doc serves for breakfast in the Americana Dining Room.... Well, how about Amanda's (Doc's daughter) Raspberry-Filled French Toast with Vanilla Custard, or High Country Breakfast Casserole with Lotsa Cheese and Sausage, or Doc's Sweet Potato Pancakes with Country Ham, or Three Top Tarts with Fruit Garnish and Bacon? You might find a Banana Bread waiting for you or chocolate chip cookies for a quick snack, or warm homemade French Bread with Jam. Doc always has water and soft drinks, candy, popcorn, and cracker snacks available. Doc promises that his guests won't go hungry! |
