I had a pretty enjoyable stay at Rivergate Mountain Lodge. The cleanliness of the rooms was excellent, making my time there quite comfortable. However, the location next to the go-kart tracks meant that I occasionally heard noise from the nearby attractions, especially late at night. Still, the warm hospitality from owners Pat and Fred Maples and the beautiful balcony views overlooking the river added to my experience.
