About

Imagine the smell of summer's flowers fills the air, as you stand beneath a beautiful Victorian gazebo on your wedding day surrounded by gardens and magnificent magnolia trees. If you looking for magical North Carolina wedding venue, our Durham Bed and Breakfast can help make your dreams come to true!

We offer 2 different packages. For your smaller ceremony, you can select the "Just the Two of Us" for up to 10 people. Or if you need something slightly larger, we offer the "Intimate Family" option for up to 30 people. Both packages include a two night stay in one of our premium suites.

Another great option to fully enjoy our Inn and surrounding gardens is to add a full Inn and Estate Rental to your wedding package. It will require advanced planning but it is a great way to celebrate your wedding with family and friends.

Our happy place!

Honestly, I don’t know where to begin with how PERFECT our wedding was at Arrowhead Inn.
It all started last year when my (now) husband and I took our first getaway trip to stay for a night, we were so in love with the inn, the owners Stephanie & Ron, the food, the location, the romantic rooms and grounds, that we kept going back every other month. Not once did it ever disappoint.
Then Jack proposed, we knew immediately we wanted to get married there with all our closest friends & family under the same roof!
Ron, Steph, and their daughter Hannah, did EVERYTHING to make our day perfect! Helped us with finding a reverend, who to call for the most beautiful flowers, and the most mouth watering food! They went and picked up my favorite Prosecco and set up rooms and our dining space exactly how I’d dreamed! They even made my FAVORITE breakfasts so I was nothing but smiles from the moment I arrived to when we left!
I’ve been in 29 weddings, and this was the most fun, least stressful wedding I’ve ever been to-and it was MINE!!
There are no words that can truly describe how grateful I am to this place & their owners & ALL their staff for treating us like family! They’ll always have a special pace in our hearts, and we WILL ALWAYS go back!

Ps- we tried not to have phones out bc our photographer, Joanna Sue, was also amazing and everyone was so in the moment and happy! So apologize photos currently lacking!

Beautiful Venue, Wonderful Owners, Perfect Day

We were looking for a small wedding venue that was romantic, beautiful, had a relaxed atmosphere for our family, and wouldn't break our budget. We found all of that and more with the Arrowhead Inn.
The Arrowhead is a gorgeous property, both inside the Inn (and the cottage and cabin rooms) and the grounds outside. We had our ceremony at the gazebo, and stayed in the cabin 2 nights, which was perfect for newlyweds. We rented the whole Inn (all the rooms) for our family, who stayed there after our dinner/reception. All of the rooms have been recently remodeled. Our families and friends couldn't stop commenting on how beautiful the Inn was, and how impressed they were. Breakfast both days was delicious, as well!
Ron, Stephanie, and their daughter Hannah were wonderful to work with throughout the whole process. Thanks to Covid, they helped us reschedule the wedding to a new date, and were so accommodating and understanding. They were helpful and friendly throughout the weekend, our families loved talking with them. Stephanie even helped hold and take care of our 5 month old son so that our families could take pictures and have some time to celebrate!
Ron, Stephanie, and Hannah helped make our wedding weekend so special. We believe we found such a special place, and a great value for the money we spent. We are planning to come back and stay in the cabin for our 1 year anniversary!

Elopement Wedding

We eloped to Arrowhead Inn on May 31 2019 Ron & Stephanie made sure our day was nothing short of perfection. They truly dedicated their time & went out of their way for us. We stayed in the Garage Cottage. It is so beautiful & room service was GREAT. The grounds are phenomenal! They take such great care of lawn, landscaping, & flowers (everywhere)! My husband & I enjoyed a few drinks by the fire pit. However, the hammock was by far my favorite. Honestly it’s so gorgeous we didn’t leave the place. We ate their the whole time. Ron is a awesome cook. Stephanie makes the best breakfasts. The food was out of this world. Our wedding was truly perfect. It was everything we wanted & more. This place makes for great photos. We decided to have our whole wedding under the gazebo. (Ceremony, removal of garder, cake cut, toast, & 1st dance.) I will say it was a bit hot that day, which is the ONLY downfall. Good thing I went with a simple A-line dress. Our package included the cake (oh so tasty) and a massage! Arrowhead Inn will always hold a special place in our hearts. We will return for our anniversaries.
Thanks again friends

Elopement Package Wedding

My fiancé and I did the elopement package at the Arrowhead. It was the perfect choice. Stephanie and Ron are so welcoming and making you feel as comfortable as you would be in your own home. The grounds are immaculate and there are plenty of nice places to sit and enjoy the outdoors. We stayed in the Garden Cottage and it was beautifully decorated and the amenities are lovely. The whirlpool bathtub and steam function on the shower really made us feel like we were at a spa. Stephanie’s cooking is delicious! I would absolutely recommend anyone who’s looking to have any size wedding or someone who just wants a few nights away to stay here. Thanks Ron and Stephanie for such an lovely stay!

The Arrowhead Inn is as close to perfection! Phil and Gloria (Innkeepers) were amazing at anticipating our needs - which ensured our stay was relaxing, enjoyable, and romantic beyond expectations. The in-room personal chef dinner is not to be missed. Already decided we'll be back year-after-year - simply was that great. Looking for a venue in the Raleigh Durham Chapel Hill area? Can't go wrong at Arrowhead. Go there now!

The Arrowhead Inn is casually elegant, relaxed, refreshing and completely dedicated to service and satisfaction of their guests. Our wedding was casual, but the staff made sure it went off without a hitch, guided the timing and coordination of everything from the prewedding gathering on Friday, through the end of the reception on Saturday evening and the Sunday brunch. It was a complete family member only wedding weekend and reserving the entire inn for the weekend made for some magical family moments.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
