Rented a pontoon boat and explored Kentucky Lake & Tennessee River. Went to dinner at the Grey Heron on the river via boat! Other campers there are very welcoming and helpful if you need anything. Don't forget to visit the Fresh Water Pearl Museum on property.

This resort hotel has amazing views of the Tennessee River and nearby Wilson dam. From the lobby…read moreto our room it was very well maintained and lovely. One simple but thoughtful gesture was a staff member positioned at the front door who always opened it for you. The rooms have balconies, and I would suggest a higher floor room because you'll have sweeping views of the Tennessee River. The hotel decor definitely pays homage to the music scene that has been long associated with Muscle Shoals area. As we entered our room we were amused by the ceiling light that was a "recording studio in use" sign. On the walls were gold records and other music memorabilia from the area. There are two restaurants/bars on sight. Swampers has live music and typical bar food. We had appetizers there one evening and really enjoyed them. The drink prices were very reasonable. The second restaurant is the 360 Grille. It is atop a revolving tower. The 360 grille is an upscale steakhouse. We did make reservations and eat there also. That was a great decision. On the property is a large swimming complex, complete with a water slide and waterfall. There are numerous pool lounges available as well as a few private cabanas. There was poolside drink and food service on the weekend. The property is near a Robert Trent Jones golf course and I noticed a significant amount of golfers staying at the hotel. A large hallway gallery is located on the main floor. When we stayed it had a huge collection of all things Rolling Stones. Trivia fact- The stones recorded 3 songs in Muscle shoals. All in all it's a great property if you plan to stay a couple or more days- so you can take advantage of all the hotel has to offer. It's not a budget conscious hotel but definitely worth it for the amenities.

The entire hotel - common areas, restaurants, rooms - have been fully renovated, as it's now been…read morerebranded a Renaissance hotel. Overall a quite nice job on the renovation. Adorable music decor throughout. Turn on the overhead light as you enter your room and it's a "recording - studio in use" sign. Lots of appropriate decor featuring music and the Shoals location, even the nightstand drawer pulls are volume knobs (that go up to 11!) Room can be kept dark and cold, there's a small fridge, and a good bathroom with walk in shower. I thought the bed comfortable, but it hurt the wife's back, so you'll have to decide on that one. We'll definitely be back. It's an easy weekend trip from the Nashville area, and a lot of the drive can be done on the Natchez Trace Parkway, which is a very pleasant and relaxing drive. We didn't take advantage of the pool, but it looks very nicely done. Book yourself a dinner at the 360 grille while you're there. They go a good job, and it's a fun splurge - not a lot of revolving restaurants on towers in that neck of the woods.

The Piney River is really cool and in one section has these really neat rocks and really blue water.

There were farm animals next door that were fun to feed carrots. The staff was really friendly and escorted us to our tiny home when we checked in. They gave us a tour of the place and made sure all of our questions were answered.

I don't think it's a terrible place to stay I just think they could do better. Thank you for the accommodation.

Our nephews had black feet from walking in their cabin. The owner said we were rude and the only person any of us were rude to was the owner cuz she is so rude. There are bad reviews from 7 years ago. The staff and marina were great except for the owner and the staff is afraid of her (actually what they told me ) she blames them for everything even though they put no money in the "resort" RUN away from This place!!

I was really let down by this stay, especially for the price. The room felt extremely dated--the…read morefurniture and overall style looked old and definitely didn't reflect a $600-per-night experience. Even small details were off; one of my coffee packets was already opened and there was no sugar provided, which just added to the disappointment. The bed was another major issue--it was so firm that it actually hurt my back. We booked a two-queen room with a view of the inside park, which was nice, but unfortunately that was the only highlight. Everything else fell short. We also ordered in-room dining from the à la carte menu, and that was just as underwhelming. I paid $34 for pan-seared salmon, and it literally came as just a plain piece of salmon on top of rice--nothing else. For that price, I expected something much better. Honestly, I've had better salmon at places like Dave & Buster's for less. The charcuterie board was just as disappointing--$24 for four small pieces of mediocre meat. Overall, this was easily the worst staycation I've had. With all the hype surrounding this place, I truly expected much more.

The spa day was very relaxing. We enjoyed yoga, sound bath, mineral pool, and couples massage. January - We did the chef's tasting menu. The dishes were unique, and included a few ingredients I had not had previously. It was good, but not as good as other Nashville Michelin star restaurants we've tried. The service was slow for our preference. The server was not as attentive as we'd like, and we would have enjoyed learning about the food and the seed to table preparation. Also, most nice restaurants do something special for an anniversary, like give you a special menu or take your photo for you. They just said "Happy Anniversary" when we sat down. It was a little off putting to hear a chef yell "VIP" for someone's order as well. The meal took over 2 hours. For the price, I don't think we'll eat there again. In Room Snacks & Drinks - The dip with pita and veggies and afternoon drinks were great. Pricey but worth it for a special occasion. Joyburger - The food truck had a simple menu. We tried it all, and it was delicious! Breakfast in Bed - The breakfast food is overpriced for what you get. It tasted fine. Sojourner - Really nice dinner. Well prepared, good service, high quality food. Appropriately priced. The Inn gave us a nice note and treats for our Anniversary. The spa also gave us a gift bag for our Anniversary. All the staff was professional and attentive. They were able to accommodate early check in and late check out so we could enjoy two full days on property. Highly recommend the spa experience. We'll likely return.

Just keep following the road around as it is not signed well as to directions. Stop at the first stop sign you see where there is a little shack that says "check in." We assume it is a check in for the rv park and the HH. But, again... no signage or directions. We got lost and had to call. Once you come straight back through to the spots down by the waterfront be sure you chalk your rv very securely as the sights are not well leveled and there is a concern of rolling back into the water. Also, we are right at 40' and we were too big so I would say nothing bigger than 35' to fit comfortably. The museum is quaint with a very pretty pearl selection to see. There was someone there talking to a couple about pearls (she clearly worked there) and never acknowledged us upon entry. Never acknowledged us and we were there approximately 12 mins looking around. No, I'll be with you soon, no welcome and nice to see you. Nothing. I was ready to spend money but after waiting and being ignored we left. I was not impressed by that. Good luck on your stay.
