Great place with a "Gorgeous View" 😊
Took a trip to the Glen and nearby falls. The Gorgeous View was a great place to stay as everything was within a 10 minute drive. The staff and owner were friendly. Neat and clean rooms with comfortable beds. Great for anyone not needing fancy. I'd stay here again if I'm ever in the area.

Nice location. Friendly owner accommodated us for a late check in. Comfy bed. Would have liked a comfy chair but room was clean and had good amenities; cups, frig, microwave, tv, WiFi, etc.
