“Beautiful setting, very peaceful”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 April 2013 via mobile

The River Lodge was perfectly located for attending a wedding at Castle Ladyhawke. The views are beautiful and the peaceful setting made for a great night's sleep. Cathy and Anthony are very gracious, unobtrusive hosts - they are there if you need them but leave you to enjoy the property if that's your preference. The breakfast was delicious. If you... More

What a special place! The view, the river, the birds...all within 5 minutes of Western Carolina University. Like closing the door to all of your cares and worries as soon as you drive in the driveway of this meticulously maintained landscape. Attention to detail is obviously Kathy and Anthony's strong suit as every inch of this spectacular home is decorated... More

“Nice Accomodations and Great Breakfast”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 August 2011

There are very few decent places to stay in the Cullowhee area. This is a nice exception. The communal spaces and the rooms are very comfortable and well maintained. The breakfasts are terrific and incredibly filling. It's a good choice if you are in the area, but it is not a destination. Cashiers, NC is 20 miles away and has... More
