Everything was great, I had a wonderful King bed with a view of a pasture that brought in deer at sunset and Monica the Manager, was so warm and welcoming. I was traveling alone, and she make a big difference in my trip to Hendersonville. Their location was fabulous too. I'm so glad I made such a great choice staying here!
Great staff, and very interested in my comfort while staying.

Great place near walking trail and lake. Staff is phenomenal. Mrs Monica Morgan is a very pleasant and friendly hostess that is there to assist you and tell about what there is do do around the area.
This motel is a hidden gem! The rooms are clean and recently remodeled. The manager makes the stay, though. She is friendly and knowledgeable. We spent the night on Christmas, and she had called around to find out what local restaurants were open. The building sits of the road, so it is quiet but also a bit tricky to find. But it is worth the trouble!
Monica at the front desk was incredibly helpful both with accommodating my requests and recommending local restaurants and ideas for outings. A good value as well.
Housekeeping came in everyday and made the bed, left clean linens and cleaned the bathroom. We recently stayed in a “high end” hotel in Hendersonville that did NOT provide that level of service. If looking for a place to spend the night I highly recommend.
Nice location close to Nashville without all the craziness of staying in Nashville. Very quite rooms. Bed and pillows were hard. Breakfast was grab and go items. Nice hot shower. Housekeeping did great.
I was visiting friends in the Nashville / Hendersonville area and this property provided the ideal location given what I needed for a last minute visit
Enjoyed meeting the staff.
Rooms were very clean, and comfortable.
Location was great. Enjoyed the privacy of the area.
Looking forward to seeing the final upgrades on this little gem.
We will definitely stay here on all our trips to area.
Perfect inn for a boat / jet ski trip with friends
Nicely renovated motel, very clean, & great location, at a very reasonable cost. Perfect place to stay for a jet ski / boat launch for local trips on the lake or river with friends. Launch is ~10 minutes away. The manager was very accommodating to 3 trucks and trailers and a pleasure to deal with. Within walking distance of a DG & grocery store, gas on corner, decent restaurant and pizza pub across street. Excellent seafood joint a short drive down road. Would definitely stay here again!
