Surprise! That's how I felt when I got to my room and looked right out on the trout stream running through Cherokee. The room had a comfortable king size bed and was clean and neat. The really cool thing was a high table with two stool chairs sitting right in front of big window over looking the stream. I was... More

We arrived at Riverside Motel, it wasn't the best looking but we figured hey it's the mountains and alot of places aren't fancy. As we proceeded on to our room we noticed the door was kicked in, the room smelled, there was no fridge(we were told there was), it was just a complete dump. My husband went to the office... More

A so-called website got my attention with the picture of a beautiful riverfront deck made of stone with the rippling water of the river. You could even hear the splashing of the water on the short video clip. In- room coffee, right. The only thing that even made the two day weekend getaway survivable, is that my 3 boys had... More

I was told I could pay half and not stay, but I could not get out of the reservation. I was forced to stay. When I... More

At the visitor's center in Franklin, NC I picked up a pamphlet for the Riverside Motel. The picture of the motel right on the river was very appealing. So we stopped and I fell for the location. We even looked through the window of a room to get an idea of whether we wanted to stay. We stayed one night... More

This place is very beautiful and quiet. I would recommend it. It is locatated about 2 minutes from town. It is located near... More
