Was looking for place to stay close to harrahs at cheapest price. For $63 a night it was great. The back porch view of the river was amazing. And the sound of the water rushing by was so relaxing. Convenience store and dollar general both within a mile. 6 miles from the Casino. I had no troubles whatsoever.

I really enjoyed my stay at LLoyd's on the River. The room was nice and the bed was comfortable. The staff was easy to work with and even stayed up to accommodate my late arrival. Check in and check out was very easy. The room was quite and was in a beautiful location beside a wonderful trout stream. I plan to go back next year. Perfect for a fishing trip to the NC mountains.
