Great Hotel!! Super duper clean. The cleanest I ever seen Only recommendation is to add a gift shop that has snacks and toiletries. Also need to put a microwave somewhere that’s accessible. Great stay

We just stayed one night. We wanted to play the adjacent 9 hole golf course (excellent as well). Was not expecting this at all. No exaggeration but we’ve stayed in hotels/rooms that cost 10 times as much and were no nicer. Will absolutely stay here again.

This hotel is nice! It was nice that the rooms are on one side and the restaurant is on the other. Beautiful lobby and entryway. There was a fire going in the lobby when we arrived which made it feel cozy. The beds were soft which made for a great nights sleep! We definitely would stay here again! We stayed here to go to The Caverns for an event so it was ideal location.

We had an absolutely fabulous stay here. We came just one night from Chattanooga for an anniversary dinner at High Point Restaurant (which is just about a 10 minute drive). The Inn is super clean and so comfortable. They do a turn down service and have bathrobes, the room even has an umbrella. We got a golf course view room, and had fun just watching them play by our window. The best part is the comfortable bed and bedding!
