    Had a blast this past weekend at Camp Toknowhim. Accommodations were great and the community was rememberable.

    I've wanted to come to Gorham's Bluff for years. Overlooking the Tennessee River, it's one of the…read moreloveliest natural spots in Alabama. My fiancé and I came for a weekend and we're considering spending our lives here. The inn is a lovely old place - kept up by folks who cherish it, and it shows. Meals are by reservation only, but an experience not to be missed. Food was excellent, a little costly but not at all out of line. Our room was lovely - the Satterfield Room. The only complaint I have is the height of the bed is ridiculous - I had to climb over the sofa at the foot to spring up onto the mattress. But - it was very comfortable. We had a beautiful view of the bluff from our private porch and rocking chairs. There was hot tea and snacks available 24/7, which was so nice after a day hiking. The neighborhood is great - houses are a bargain - which is why we'll give serious consideration to a move if it makes sense when the time comes. Dawn, the owner, is lovely and kind and takes a lot of pride in treating guests specially. We will definitely be back!

    The Lodge at Gorham's Bluff is a secret gem in Northeast Alabama…read more The lodge is the center of a small town composed of personal and public houses/cabins. There are hiking trails, bikes and a pool for the small community. The Lodge itself is a bed and breakfast and intended for relaxing. While the cabins have televisions, the lodge rooms do not. There is a center area downstairs with an older television but this is a place for unwinding and personal time. There is wifi but the connection is teneous at best. Several of the Lodge rooms have private balconies that overlook the bluff. The Lodge is at the highest point of a mountain and overlooks the TN river. Truly amazing views. Hawks and vultures fly low over the bluff and swallows have a small community there and provide a constant source of movement. The Lodge itself features a small restaurant. It offers breakfast, lunch boxes (for pickup) and a dinner prepared by a phenomenal chef. For every guest, a custom menu is printed up for dinner and there are typically two choices offered for appetizer, entree and dessert. Prices range from 60 - 80 a person depending if you want both appetizers (3 v 4 course meal). I've had the caprese salad, tomato soup, steak, pork chop and the chocolate dessert in the three or so meals I've had there. All of the food is amazing but the pork chop is the best thing by far - and not only at the Lodge. Depending on the crowd, there will also be a piano player performing in the dining room. I do not recommend the lunchbox. You don't get a choice of what type of sandwich - I ended up paying 42 dollars for two lunchboxes with a duck sandwich, bag of chips, cookie, pasta salad and an apple. I do not like duck and wasn't prepared for a non-typical meat on a sandwich. I wasn't offered any substitute or refund when I told them I didn't eat duck. Regardless, 42 is too much for a lunchbox for two. There isn't a grocery store nearby though so if you don't want to eat there, recommend bringing your own food. Cabins have full kitchens. Lodge does not nor does it have personal fridges in the room. There is one in the pantry area for the guests though. Tip: Explore the trails along the bluff and walk in the woods to the treehouse. Easy hikes but fun to explore. If you have bug issues, recommend staying at the Lodge. The cabins are bug free but have a lot of spiders and insects on the outside. A lot. This is a great place for lovers and families. It's not too crowded and close to Huntsville but offers a true get away experience.

The staff goes way over the top to accommodate the youngest to the oldest and the homes are very clean with every amenity one could imagine. I even felt like I slept better every single night there !

We have done our annual family reunion for 60+ family from multiple states for several years now. We rent the pavilion for suppers together and meet at the waterpark or any of the many pools for family time together. This year our extended family of 15 stayed in house #41 for the first time. It is fairly new, really beautiful, and with the very best kitchen we have found anywhere in our travels. Huge and super-well equipped. Mattresses were all great and everyone slept well all four nights. Only negative about this beautiful home is that there are no bedrooms on the main level so everyone has to either go upstairs or downstairs for sleeping. Also the driveway is a bit challenging but we navigated it well with our Armada and were able to park two cars in the garage. Garage needs a step to help guests climb up into the house but we all managed. Front door is very easy access if guests want to avoid the very tall step from the garage. Also pet friendly which is very rate at CBR. We would definitely rent this one again!

Oh, feral cats living under my porch, fed by an employee two buildings down at the Town Hall. Calling and visiting the front desk, they were friendly and apologetic and sent bottles of wine, but wine does not stop mosquitos biting. "Engineering" never showed up, I presume because they don't exist. 12th consecutive year here for an annual golf tournament. Something has changed and their room care has plunged. Literally an insect infested room with no response beyond "here is some wine and we're oh so sorry". If you come here, bring Deet to spray on your body and bug killer to spray around the perimeter of the floors. Oh, mosquitos on the toilet as well. Gym weight equipment was essentially non-functional as all thepoarts had loose bolts and pulley/cable links broken. Barnsley has started to become a dump. I'd bet Private Equity now owns some or all of it and has pulled their usual "strip away expenses and maintenance and no one will notice", as decided by a 24 year old finance major. Yeah, people notice. I wont come back.

However, the room was very unimpressive (3 stars?) with single ply toilet paper ! we ate at the Woodlands grill which is overpriced, with a very limited menu & a mediocre meal. We went to a concert there so ate an early dinner, after went to the Biergarten for a drink & a snack. got an expensive drink but zero snacks. Geesh, sell peanuts or chips for hungry folks late evening. The whole place seemed so overpriced without the value. Won't be going back!
