This is the besr place to stay in town. Its extremely clean and friendly as would recommendations to anyone. It's family owned and the kind hearted lady will try to accommodate you to the best of her abilities
We stayed one night on our trip to Florida and it was perfect! I booked thru Monica on the phone, she was absolutely pleasant and even gave us tips on places to eat in the area, and places to check out in Florida. We arrived late, later than expected (I’m so sorry again Monica)…she was waiting up for us and even upgraded our room. The rooms were cozy and extremely clean, and the area was quiet and safe. Perfect stop over just off 65. Thank you!
During the recent Ice Storm my family needed a place to stay due to no electricity and this place was amazing!! They even gave my family home-made chili upon check-in, as well as waived the early check-in fee, so they could get there as soon as possible to warm up and get a shower. My father who usually likes nothing, actually said this place was "great", and that is indeed saying something!! Lol. This motel is fabulous!!!
This motel is a hidden gem! The rooms are clean and recently remodeled. The manager makes the stay, though. She is friendly and knowledgeable. We spent the night on Christmas, and she had called around to find out what local restaurants were open. The building sits of the road, so it is quiet but also a bit tricky to find. But it is worth the trouble!
A hidden gem! Love this little motel, and we travel A LOT! Clean updated rooms, comfortable beds and big screen TVs with premium channels! Nice breakfast and good coffee. Friendly staff and good restaurants within walking distance. Get a first floor room and skip the stairs. 5 stars out of 5 and we would definitely stay here again!!
Highly recommend staying here. Rooms were clean and nice. Monica was extra amazing, friendly and had great personality. I would assume she’s the owner the way she treats the operation. Can’t beat it for the price!
Great stay at Drakes Creek Inn in Hendersonville! The hotel was very clean and felt safe and comfortable for our family. The staff was excellent—very friendly and welcoming. We were traveling as a family of four and had a great night. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting the area.
I stayed two nights, my room was nice very and clean, newly renovated. Mattresses were excellent and the service was friendly and good. Breakfast was good for traveling, they don’t have room to have a fancy breakfast.
This budget motel is a 2-minute walk from Old Hickory Lake, and less than a mile from both Drakes Creek Park and the Hendersonville Expo Center.
