It’s a nice and charming family owned inn, really close to Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Cherokee. The room and linen were clean. There’s a river on the backyard of the hotel, a nice place to spend some moments just watching nature. Even though it could use some renovations, nothing that negatively impacted my stay.

Very clean room, great view of the river. Parking is right in front of your room. It’s very old but for one night you can’t beat the price. Bed and pillows were very comfy.

This is a solid budget option if you just need a place to sleep. The rooms are clean but definetly outdated, and there are not many extras. A nice bonus is that some rooms have a riverside view, which adds a bit of charm. You can even fish by the banks or sit by the firepit to relax. Overall its a good pick if you care more about price and cleaniness than modern amenities.

Our room was very clean and well maintained, the bed was very comfortable. The owners are on site and very friendly. The pool was not open for the season yet but looked clean and maintained with plenty of chairs and tables. It is a short, 10 minute drive, to shopping and dining. They usually have a bon fire every night under the vented pavillion but there is a burn ban currently in place due to the dry weather so we were not able to experience this but did enjoy relaxing by the riverside. We are looking forward to staying here again.
