I stay at Cool Waters any time I go to Cherokee NC. The rooms are clean and the staff is very friendly. Being Cherokee myself I enjoy sitting and talking to the owner Ned. Nice pool and large backyard. Grannies Resturant is right across the street. Great buffet style food. I plan on going back this summer on my motorcycle... More

I really wanted to give this hotel a good rating as we frequent it on GSM trips, but honesty and disappointment took over. When we decided to extend our stay, the next morning just before checkout time, an important time, the office was locked with no note. The lady cleaning saw me and ducked away into a room. My second... More

The last time I was there was in the mid 90's. I plan on going back this year. Yes it was old then. I really enjoyed it there. Single floor, pool, stream out back, porch on rear of room, grills that I used. It was great for the children. Plenty of room to play. Kinda central to everything want to... More

This place was the worst motel I have ever been in. Could not even sleep under the covers . There were crumbs & dirt in the sheets. There were cigarette ashes on the bathroom floor, the shower curtain was moldy. This place should be condemned!

This motel was pretty good. The "backyard" is beautiful with a grilling and picnicking area and creek running through. There is a catch and release pond for those who bring along their poles. I didn't swim but the pool looked nice and clean. Our room had a porch on the back to enjoy the beautiful scenery from. Across the road... More

We have stayed here for over 10 years off and on. Not a 5 star but, overall one of the best for clean accommodations with friendly staff. If you are looking for one of the bigger hotels, this is not the one. Overall my opinion, an A+ for a small motel near the casino. You will loose your money in... More

An outdated motel and room, but a clean bed. Three of us took showers in the morning and there was no hot water, just barely warm. The motel is spread out over quiet a bit of land so kids will probably like the pond, playground,and open space. Granny's Restaurant is right across street with a good buffet. And it's not... More

The Cool Waters Motel althought retro was nice. Clean sheets and room every day, a shared back porch that lets you walk out into a massive backyard space and picnic area creekside. Very roomy. your own parking space. No wifi.
