We always love staying at the Happy Hollow. We call it a diamond in the rough. The great staff, allowing pets and the proximity to the National Park and the town center far outweighs the flaky paint

I love how it still captures the charm of its era. The place is very clean and in an ideal location—perfect for bringing your dogs along. It’s nestled at the foot of the hill with hiking trails nearby, yet right next to the vibrant strip of town. Highly recommend!

The location of Happy Hollow is convenient to the hiking trails, the cold water spring, and a short walk to downtown. Staff was friendly and helpful. Bed was comfortable but the pillows were not firm enough for my needs. Kitchenette was a bonus. Cute retro motel with everything you need.
