A clean and quiet hotel close to the Great Smoky Mountains entrance and the Tuckaleechee Caverns. Staff was very helpful and respectful. If you are looking for a peaceful place to stay and to be close to nature, you would enjoy it as much as we did.

This was one of only a couple rooms left in the area the night we came through town due to some sort of event down the street. I was a bit concerned due to the age of the property and pictures were not super great. But it was available and we took it. So glad we did! Yes, the property is older but in well maintained condition. Easy parking directly in front of our room. The desk clerk, Christy, was stellar! Friendly, gave a great dinner suggestion, and offered her assistance with anything we might need. She was friendly, efficient and just a lovely individual! The room was clean and no frills but very comfortable. The bed was very comfortable and the water pressure in the bathroom I wish I could take home with me! Seriously. It’s amazing. I would stay here again any time and you should to. Family owned place beats hotel chains hands down. Breakfast is included but we did not have any as we had food to use up ourselves. At checkout, Christy asked if we liked the dinner (she remembered!) and thanked us for coming. Don’t overlook this little gem!

Liked: Amenities
The hotel room itself was nice. However, the shower curtain was missing. I brought it to the attention of the lady at the front desk. She was rude about it. She was also replacing food on the breakfast bar without using any gloves or utensils as to not directly touch the food that the guests were eating.
