We stay here at least once per month as we travel to Lake Lure (where we’re building a vacation home). The staff is always friendly, the rooms clean, the atmosphere safe and peaceful, and the food nice & warm. We highly recommend it.

Overall good stay. Rooms were clean. The walls are thin though. We heard everything in the halls and other rooms televisions/music. When flushing our toilet, every other time, the pipes would scream. Not fun when someone went to the bathroom at 5 am!

No shampoo in the shower. Body wash and two conditioners. I’m guessing one was shampoo, but should be labeled appropriately.

I wasn't sure what to expect but this was good for the area. Restaurants nearby, Sonic in the next parking lot even. It was a little pricey but everything else was motel. If I ever come back, I'll stay here again
