The unit (#19) was so cute and was just as pictured online. The windows were able to be open and the door had a screen door so we could leave the hard door open to enjoy the mountain air. It was the cleanest motel I've ever stayed in. Our unit was right by the creek and we were able to sleep with the windows open and listen to the water, it was amazing. The staff was very friendly.

Beautiful motel run by a friendly and helpful local family, providing all of the necessary essentials. Rooms were clean, bed and pillows very comfortable and breakfast was excellent. Located about a mile out of town so quiet but easy access with a trolley stop right across the road.

This is old style motor lodge right beside the river. Staff is easy to deal with and the room was very comfortable. Don't expect resort sytle accomidations but it's great little place to rest your head for the night.

Good value. Clean, within walking distance to the conference center and plenty of places to eat. Love that the Pancake house was right beside the motel. It’s not the newest but all I needed.

Quiet and beautiful location. That a conventional, old-style, family-run motel can still provide a good service!

Typical motel on the road near all Cherokee attractions and shops. The balcony overlooking the Oconaluftee River is very relaxing and we were able to sleep with the balcony door open without AC, which we really enjoyed. We went to the open air theater and the Cherokee village, the Qualla shop has authentic handicrafts, the others sell Chinese stuff.

The location of the motel is very close to all the sites in Gatlinburg. The motel was very clean and the family that owns it, was kind and helpful. They really have done a wonderful job with this motel and I highly recommend staying here!

I loved this motel. It was so quaint and well looked after. Our room was spotlessly clean. The lady at reception (sorry I've forgotten your name!)was really friendly, welcoming and answered all our questions about the area. Great location away from the busier parts of the Great Smokys. Only a short drive from the spectacular Waterrock knob trail and overlook. Beautiful sunsets. Also near the spectacular Soco Falls. There was a really lovely creek at the back of the motel with somewhere to sit and relax. We also met the dogs!
