Lamplight Inn  

Step back from the fast pace of today, and join us by the fire in the Parlor. Located 45 minutes from the Raleigh-Durham airport and less than 2 miles from interstate 85, The Lamplight Inn resides on a 150 year old, 5 acre tobacco farm. Let us beckon you with the soft glow of the many chimney lamps used to light this restored farm. Relax on the wraparound porch or stroll the grounds. Outbuildings abound for your exploration including cabins, the stable, the gazebo, and the open air fitness center located in the barn. A short drive will bring you to the Kerr Lake State Recreation Area to enjoy sailing, fishing, water skiing and hiking. This 50,000-acre, man-made lake is a haven for water sports enthusiasts and landlubbers alike. More than 800 miles of wooded shoreline provide access to a variety of fun-filled activities on the lake.

Or explore the nearby communities as you hunt for antiques and quality hand made crafts. Enjoy historical restaurants or a round of golf at Kerr Lake Country Club.

Every Saturday night you'll find good ole toe tappin country music at the RIDGEWAY OPRY HOUSE and it's just around the bend and a country mile from here.
