Top Fontana Dam Hotel Reviews

Tremont Lodge & Resort

8/10 Good

"Rooms were dated but clean. If you get second floor be ready to carry your belongings up stairs. Parking is the real problem here. If you go at busy times you may be parking completely on the other side of the campus from where your room is. Not a good feeling."

SureStay by Best Western Cherokee on the River

8/10 Good

"Location was good."

Two Rivers Lodge

8/10 Good

"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 The room size met our needs and although somewhat outdated it was clean and comfortable at a reasonable rate.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."
