Excellent, personable young lady checked us in. She was quick, and informative. She provided dining suggestion that was one of the best we’ve had recently. She visited with me throughout the check-in process, I felt right at home. Room was clean, well stocked and comfortable. Not one complaint.

8.6/10 Excellent! (1,703 reviews)

The rooms were very outdated. Bathroom door look deteriorated, curtains and room carpets were dirty. Heating/cooling wasn’t able to keep up and very loud. Not enough electrical available for multiple c-pap machines. We were charged too high for garage parking which we weren’t made aware that we would pay extra to park and valet took forever to get our vehicles to the point we had to get our own.

![On the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail in the Great Smoky Mountains NP. Follow the Motor Nature trail to a small lot just before the Alex Cole cabin. This is where the road passes over Baskins Creek. This trail is known as both the Baskins Creek Trail and the Graveyard Ridge Trail. The graveyard is only a few hundred yards from the parking area. The falls on the other hand is about 1.6 miles on a moderate trail. Be careful!! The last time I hiked it there was NO sign marking where to turn left and cross the stream to get to the falls. You can also continue on the Baskins Creek Trail past the turnoff to the falls and wind up back at the Motor Nature trail, near the Rainbow Falls parking area. This entire route is about 2 1/2 miles, but note that the portion past the falls turnoff going to Rainbow Falls is more strenuous than the first part. ALSO: note that this is a one-way road and you will need someone to drive your car back around the Nature Trail to meet you back at the Rainbow Falls parking area.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6326330/185c69c7-5b58-4054-a236-af96750b7628.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh)
