The rooms are clean, comfortable, convenient, and quiet with a definite southern hospitality vibe. Owners are professional and polite. They enjoy their job and they're good at it. River is a few steps away and is beautiful. Highly recommend this establishment!

Staff were excellent. Room was clean. Bed could be more comfortable. The seal was missing on the bottom of the door so we had to put a towel to keep the cold wind out.

Great clean room. Had an older room feeling but it’s nice to see what rooms were like in older days. This place was built in the traditional cookie cutter style of the old days. Everything was fully functional and was clean as could be. If you want modern and industrial it’s not for you but for a romantic weekend it’s great. Beds were very comfortable and staff was extremely helpful when asked questions. Very quiet place that anyone would appreciate with a short walk to a beautiful River spot to enjoy.

The bathroom, refrigerator and sink were spotless. It has vintage charm like you are spending the night at grandmas. A lot of the place looks original. The owners are very personable and so down to earth. The grounds have a beautiful river in the back and seasonal pool and fire pit. We will definitely be back when we go up there.

Don't let the outside fool you. This location was safe, very clean inside the room, and extremely comfortable. The two office personnel with whom I dealt, were very kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend if you want a place to stay while hiking in the area are visiting local attractions.

Gentleman at the front desk was extremely accommodating. Beautiful plants outside of the motel was inviting & reminded me of a cozy front porch. My motel room was reminiscent of an older home but in a great way! If you were to visit your grandma's house. Very nostalgic. Room was clean. Beds were clean. Quiet area close to Cherokee Casino(10 minute straight, short drive) Room was priced great! Easily accessible to main road. Felt safe & sercure during our 2 night trip. I would definitely recommend staying.

Loved the location! Beautiful area at the river, with old fashioned gliders and a swing. People were grilling out and there was a fire pit. Don’t expect luxury it’s pretty rustic and could use some sprucing up outside (doors were all weathered and peeling paint) but inside was pretty good. The bathroom looked like it had been redone recently. No hairdryer. Small coffee maker makes about 2 cups. Bed was pretty comfortable pillows were kinda flat and there were only two. Parking right outside the door so that was convenient. Had to ring doorbell about three times waited about 5 minute for owners to come and let us in to check in but after that it was ok. Might stay again. Loved the view enough to visit again.
