Great stay!
Jess, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great location for visiting Red River Gorge and Natural Bridge State Park. Very quiet. The lodge room needs a table or shelf for more counter space.

8/10 Good

What a fun vibe to this hotel. Away fromnthe road, quiet, and it feels like a cabin!
Meredith, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It was a clean quiet motel. Waking distance to local places and a 2 minute drive to others. Close to hiking areas and very beautiful area
dena lee, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Being a rustic lodge motel, it was pretty much what we expected…clean, comfortable, but very dark rooms.
Selina, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The room was spacious and clean. Air conditioning worked great on hot days. Slept well. Was off the road just enough to be quiet but still close to everything.
Kristie, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

They now have Wifii. The place is simple, but they have everything you need. Feels like a cabin. We arrived late, but the receptionist texted me the instructions. The stores around close early.

8/10 Good

Comfortable beds, clean rooms. Close to Natural Bridge. Only problem was the TV in one room was a smart TV that we could not get anything to work on
Shelia, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

The room smelled very musty, the bed was very uncomfortable. No wifi made limited phone access which is unsafe
Stacie, 2-night trip

Everything was great
Vaghinak, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

This is an older property, but well maintained. The only negatives were a musty smell when we first entered our room and a finicky "smart" TV. We either got used to the smell or it disappeared when we turned the air on. The TV wouldn't let me sign into my Netflix account. It did however let me sign into Prime. Overall a great stay for the price.
