I had an incredible stay at the Meadowlark Motel in Maggie Valley. The location by the pretty creek was peaceful, and the views of the mountains were stunning. The staff, especially Kate, went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. The rooms were spotless and very cozy. However, I wish I could have tried more of the amenities, as I didn't have the time. Overall, it was a great value for money, and I can't wait to return.

The location was a definite highlight, right by the river and close to local attractions. I appreciated the dog-friendly atmosphere and some outdoor amenities like fire pits. Unfortunately, the room itself was quite disappointing, with cleanliness and maintenance issues. Also, the dining options were very limited, and we struggled to find food nearby.

I had high hopes for this place, especially with the beautiful setting by the creek, but it turned out to be quite disappointing. While the outdoor areas had potential, the lack of amenities like a functional pool and a restaurant really made my stay less enjoyable. The staff seemed unfriendly, and it was not as clean as I expected. Overall, it might be worth considering other places in the area which offer better experiences.
