"We chose this location for the proximity to Bryson City. Stayed 3 nights to ride both trains in Bryson City. The room size met our needs and although somewhat outdated it was clean and comfortable at a reasonable rate. There is an outdoor pavilion located in the back right on the river. The only downside is the outside could use some attention with painting of doors, and outdoor furniture. There is a kennel located next door and sometimes bothered early morning with dogs barking. Overall, it met our needs."
