This is BS . This is the only hotel in my life gave this review without booking or seeing this hotel. You trid to call them either they dont answer or they dont care . I think they dont want foreigners or any people with accent .. Check twice before booking!
Hello If your looking for a clean, family friendly, Dog friendly, piece of relaxation you found it! :) It maybe a little outdateded with its style, but don't let that push you awayits like being at your grandma, minus the old lady perfume and China cabinets with nicnaks.. lol ;)
We came up from Florida because of Irma. It was amazing The Lake and Fema worked together so people like us had a wonderful place to stay NOT only did we get to stay, they welcomed our whole family with open arms including our cat.
Y'all were such a blessing you turned a very stressful situation, into a wonderful vacation. We didn't know where we would go, after 14hrs with a packed car with a 1yr old, 6year old autistic child, a dog, a cat, a husband that came straight up from work and a mother that has chronic pain, with no sleep in a day in a half, you guy's were a little piece of heaven.
The rooms were very clean, staff was friendly just like family very helpful with bright smiles, always made sure we had clean towels, toilet paper, soap etc. Our apt had two rooms which i loved because we had kids. They were able to play and we could relax.
Lake Junaluska had beautiful views and such a loving feel. We had great neighbors, and the kids playgrounds we 're so fun. It meant so much for us to all be together. From the bottom of my heart I want to thank y'all. Now when we come up my family knows where we will stay and feel right at home!! I wish I could give more stars :) Godbless and Have a beautiful day! Too bad we didn't get to do everything y'all had to offer, there is so much more than meets the eye. The welcome center is fascinating with such a diversity of cultures filling the lobby, it's like taking a trip around the world.
If your on the fence about where to stay give Lake Junaluska apts a chance, you'll love it :)
The grounds themselves are beautiful, but not all of the lodges have scenic views. We stayed in the Lakeside Lodge, the rooms were okay? They weren't horrible, but certainly not nice. We had no fridge which was a bummer.. Kayaking was worth it, probably one of the best parts. All in all it was decent, and for a very cheap price.
The walking trail (3.7km or 6.1km, depending on path) is an excellent way to enjoy the lake. A sturdy wooden bridge spanning the main lake's inlet, the Francis Asbury botanical trail, the Rose Walk near the conference center, and a walkway over the Lake Junaluska dam are all part of the package. It's dog friendly, too!
Pros: clean, comfortable bed, beautiful location
Cons: VERY thin walls. We heard everything!!! No dining options. We woke up at 9 and there was nowhere to get any food until 11:30, but check out is at 11. Makes no sense.
Great location for a conference. Beautiful area. Relaxing for adults and the Lake provides a great place for kids to be entertained with all activities. The whole campus is quiet and relaxed. A great place to go and unwind.
We stayed last night in an apartment. Compared to a hotel room it wasn't as nice but compared to other conference centers the rooms have been fairly well taken care of. The scenery is beautiful. We especially liked the native garden.
me and my wife went there and it was great but there was like a HUGE amount of teenagers there and ughh i could not go to sleep i think they called them selfs the jamacian hopscotch crew
The hotel was adequate. The location was fantastic. I am scoring the hotel at the lowest rating because my personal and expensive pillow was stolen when I forgot it in my room at check out. When I returned to my home that evening and realized it, I called the hotel. I provided my check out time and room number. I was assured that they would look for it. Despite many repeated contacts to the management, I was never provided with my pillow or with reimbursement for it. The only logical explanation is that a hotel staff person took it home. I have not been able to afford to replace the pillow and my sleep has suffered. My check out date was on 9/18/14. I was quite surprised that the hotel made no attempt at all to make it right with me.
