My family of four stayed in one of the two bedroom suites for four days during a rock climbing trip to the Red River Gorge. As others have said, it's impeccably clean, and the suites turned out to be just what we needed in terms of size and amenities. There's a back bedroom with a queen bed, and then a... More

Very nice basic motel but noisy Jeep crowd in front of rooms (with their noisy dogs) made us upgrade to the cabin up the hill. The rooms (we checked them out) were basic. The housekeeping cabin was much nicer. Hard to check out since the desk clerk acts as the maid. A steal at $66 including tax for the basic... More

If you are looking for the best kept little secret, the best in cleanliness, the best at a reasonable price, and the best in advice for the area...then "Li'l Abner" is the best ever! Not only was Faith, the office manager, the most helpful person with answering all of our questions, she went out of her way to come to... More

Nice find on our spur of the moment trip to place I went as a child in the early 1970's. Nothing fancy. Clean and comfy beds. Nice area close to park. Great helpful people, staff helped us find family contacts in that area and family cemetery. Beautiful area. Would go back!!

After looking for a place to stay in the Red River Gorge area we lucked onto this place. We stayed there late in October.This motel is probably one of the nicest ''mom and pop'' motels you will find. No,its not luxury.But it is very clean and the staff is top notch.If you go to the Gorge area check them out.

What a lucky find. Motel at first looked questionable from the outside but don't let it fool you. Room was so clean and cute. Very close to the Natural Bridge Park. No need to pay double and stay at a park lodge. Bonus: Coffee was excellent too.

After reading the good reviews on Trip Advisor, I made a reservation for my husband and I at the Li'l Abner Motel for our recent getaway to the Natural Bridge/Red River Gorge area. It's an older motel, but it's extremely clean and well-maintained. The staff was very friendly, recommending local eating spots, attractions, etc. Our room had a mini-fridge, which... More

The Li'l Abner Motel is a great value! Located near Natural Bridge Park in Kentucky, the Li'l Abner Motel is a clean and neat motel. The lady at the front desk was very helpful to us. Also, the motel does allow dogs. I only wish the restaurant at the motel was open. The lady at the front desk recommended Miguels'... More

A group of friends on motorcycles stayed Friday and Saturday night (Sept.28-29). We booked over the internet... sight unseen. The only conversations I had was with the owner "Bill". We had 8 rooms. As most of the group had traveled and stayed in various motels in the past we anticipated negative comments. Not A One. The place was spotless. Fresh.... More

Great place to stay. Grounds, pool and rooms very clean and neat. Owner was always out cleaning grounds and attending to details. Owner was friendly and went well out of the way in helping with local roads, families etc. The motel is quiet with a pleasant atmosphere and the evenings are quiet. Just a great place to stay.
