Stay was good. 3 nights with family. Frankie, the front staff person, was very accommodating and nice. Rooms are being updated but are very small. Enough room for the beds and furniture but not much else. The bathroom is very very small. Best to keep in mind if you are a larger person. Also beds are VERY firm. I struggled with sleeping because of my back. I have lower back issues and the mattress irritated them. I woke up numerous times due to lower back pain. My spouse also had issues but slept through the night. The kids had no problems haha. Self check in is not currently available but it wasn’t an issue, Frankie helped with everything and we didn’t miss it. The pool is not currently open. Another thing to keep in mind if you are looking to book for that reason. This did not bother us because we planned to swim in the local swimming holes and do some tubing if possible but it ended up being rainy and chilly anyways so swimming was out either way. Also there is no breakfast available. I’m not sure if they offer it but just saying. Overall we would stay again for another short trip if we were in Maggie Valley.
PS, do yourself a favor and drive down a mile or so left of the motel and stop at Gates Flea Market and see Joy at the Snack Shack. The food is affordable and amazing! Don’t judge a book on this place, for real it is so good. "
