What's nearby

  • The pride of the Appalachian region is Appalachian State University, originally built as a teaching college for the members of this region. When I think of Appalachian I think of football and enjoying the games, with the chilly weather reminding you that you are in the mountains. The Rock is a well-known location for any Mountaineer football fan located at one of the highest points on campus. The football games bring in a variety of fans young and old. These games bring students, future students, and alumni all together to cheer on a classic American sport. #appalachianechoes

The bedroom is nice. The bathroom is smaller but clean. The living area is fine and the fireplace is a cool touch. The balcony view is not much. The loft had a bed and a futon that was suited just fine for kids. Staff was very nice. Cool little cabin feel that we will come back to.

Great place!

It was a great place overall. It was spacious and had a balcony with a nice view. The location was great for where I was going. The only thing I would say is that it was a little overpriced and should have been no more than $100.

Cabin #45

The cabin was very cozy and comfortable. The fireplace is great! Mirrors on the top of the bed was very odd. The bathroom floor oozes water up through the floor due to missing or cracked grout. A major future issue if not repaired. Reported it to tge front desk.

Awesome stay

We really enjoyed our stay. The people are very nice. Our hotel room felt like a cabin. Refrigerator, microwave, television, whirlpool bath, hot water, everything worked. The towels and wash rags were a little flimsy, and the floor might have been vacuumed a teeny bit better, but for the rustic feel, everything was very nice. We would definitely come back. 4-wheel drive is a very good idea!

Could use updates and a deep cleaning but the staff and views make up for it. I’m physically disabled and was given a first floor room. However, the restroom was not handicapped equipped: raised toilet, shower etc. But next time I will let them know my needs more clearly.

Old place, not filthy just needs repairs. Wood burning fireplace would be nice in winter. Whirlpool tub was useless, no water pressure, just a trickle of water, ran out of hot water before water level was up to jets. Neighbors in other rooms either drunk or drugged up, up all night screaming about fighting the Illuminati. I asked for refund agreed to $299 waiting for refund. Not a Master Host Resort. Possible section 8 housing??

The cabins are definitely by themselves. Our cabin had an old waterbed frame with mirrors above the bed. Made for interesting conversation with 2 just out of college kids. Haha. Would for sure stay again staff was very friendly and check in was quick and easy.

*The bed slept great! *The location for parking was very tight. *The TV was too small, but the cable service (ie., the channel guide and number of available channels) was excellent. *Coffee pot and cups were good; however, there were no coffee packets in the room upon our arrival. When we called about it, we had to go get it ourselves…..possibly no room service available? *There was no ice machine at our lodge and the ice maker in the main office generated ice very slowly. *The room in general was rather old and dark and in need of major updates. *The price seemed high for the quality of the accommodation.

A Blast From The Past!!!

This place was straight out of the 1970's, you even fill out a Guest Registration CARD, yes, that's right, an actual card that you write on with a pen. I haven't done that in tbe US for over 30 years. :) This place is super retro, a blast from the past, the staff was super friendly and the bed was comfy, the place could have been cleaner but it was okay. If you want to experience an old school motel, this is the place. :)

The property overbooked, so we did not receive the two queen beds as booked - instead there was a rollout cot. An $11 discount was applied, but we definitely wanted the second bed over the discount. The walls are very thin, and we heard the neighbors throughout the night. The property is more rundown than the pictures indicate. The staff is very friendly at least.

Nice, but needs work.

While a nice place in the area, it is very old and in need of major overhauls. The bathroom sink leaked and the floor was buckled, the shower head was jet powered and when you bumped it, it sprayed water out of the fittings. The overall decor was dated well into last century . The smell of marijuana was strong coming down from other guests. Staff was awesome - wish the facility could meet their attitude.

Staff was very helpful and friendly but the room had a bad oder in it. The bathroom had a disgustingly stained toilet and tub. I refused to use either. Almost every tile in bathroom was cracked.
