"Staff was very nice, room was VERY clean, we didn’t get to use any amenities or visit the restaurant at the motel. The rooms are a little dated but they are working on updating but the room was comfy, clean and quiet. We would have loved to have been able to see the river from a window instead we got a building with tall grass. We had a great time and slept well and it’s very convenient to the shops. We will definitely stay again"

"Great opportunity to step back in time at this rustic 1920s lodge in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mtns. Tons of character, lots of areas to hang out and play games, peruse their library, and settle in with a book on their fabulous front porch. Quiet location, 20 minutes away from the charming towns of Sylva and Waynesville, NC. Lodging includes free breakfast, a satisfying southern buffet—waffles, cheesy grits, scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, etc. Staff is friendly. Service is “relaxed.”"
