Very nice stay
It was so cute and cozy. Will definitely be coming back. I loved that they provided a small box fan since i always sleep with white noise. Everything was clean, and working, and best of all-you felt safe. The only thing i must say is the beds are on the firm side, but thats a preference thing so still 5 stars from me👍 OH YEAH, there boone dinner has really nice workers and fast service. Loved it all!!

Watch out for unauthorized credit charges
When I got to the hotel to check in I was handed a key. I asked about when I pay and they said we charged your credit card 2 hours ago. I did not authorize this charge. The reservation said pay at hotel. I was not giving a receipt and there was no internet service anywhere in the area and no Wi-Fi at the hotel so I could not even see what they charged me. When we got into the room overall it was clean, but there was used towels and washcloth left hanging on the hook in the bathroom. The bed and the pillows were quite uncomfortable.

4/10 Fair

Whereas it is a cute motel, there were a couple of disappointing things. The floor of the room was dirty. My wife wore a brand new pair of white socks and they were black within a few minutes. Second, the foam insulation along the door cheapened the otherwise cute ambiance. Third, the smoke detector was missing.. Finally, there was no internet and zero phone service with our carrier—obviously my issue is not the phone service, but since there was no internet then we were unable to communicate with anyone.

We were looking for a place to stay for 1 night on our way to another destination. This was one of the cheaper places to stay, and I'd stay there again. The rooms were small, but clean and quiet. They had a fridge, microwave and coffee machine.

8/10 Very Good

We liked the room, the staff at the Daniel boon gift shop were very friendly and pleasant. One thing that was an eye soar was an old camper and an old ford explorer with flat tires, both took up parking space and not a lot of room to park our motorcycles and trailers. Their were 4 other couples who trailered motorcycles at the sametime. We all we're told someone would be their to let us know where to park, and no one was their. So the next day Monday we were told by the lady that lives their our trailer needed to be move by 7 am Tuesday because the garbage truck will be their at that time. If the camper and the ford explorer were moved,it would have provided better looking/views and parking.

Great weekend getaway
We loved this cabin style motel. We walked across the street to food and a bar and general store. The room has a fridge and microwave and some people were fishing the river right outside the door for bass. The bed was a bit uncomfortable, but we would still stay there again. It does have tv with cable, HOT water, and great water pressure. AC worked well. We did not have any cell service at all and there is no wifi, which was great for us for the weekend but may be something to plan for. Definitely go to Walden Lodge and hike Red River Gorge and the Crystal Kayaking at the Gorge Underground was super fun.
