I normally don't leave negative reviews, but I felt obligated to share my experience to help future…read morecouples make an informed decision. The best parts of our wedding experience had very little to do with Leeric Lodge itself. The scenery was beautiful, and the outside vendors we worked with were wonderful and professional. Unfortunately, our experience with the venue management left us with significant concerns. My biggest recommendation to anyone considering this venue is to have a legal representative carefully review the contract before signing anything. In our experience, there were too many loopholes and unclear provisions that created unnecessary stress and confusion. Wedding planning is already overwhelming enough, and couples should be focused on enjoying their engagement and preparing for their special day--not worrying about unexpected issues or hidden complications that continue to surface. Brides and grooms deserve transparency, professionalism, and peace of mind when choosing a venue. Unfortunately, that was not our experience. I understand that every situation is different, but I would strongly encourage anyone considering this venue to do thorough research, ask detailed questions, and make sure they fully understand every aspect of the agreement before committing. This review is not written out of spite. I simply didn't feel right staying silent when my experience could potentially help someone else avoid unnecessary stress during what should be one of the happiest times of their life. If negative reviews disappear, I still wanted to make sure this warning was shared somewhere future couples might see it.

Make sure you use your Waze app to get here. It is off the beaten path, but it is well worth the trip and I would like to say that it is worth the time too explore. Once you have navigated through your journey, you'll realize that you have come to an oasis that is green and lush and full of forest with nothing other than being surrounded by the sounds of nature, birds, and other. I selected his venue for our 32 year anniversary which did not disappoint. It's a small intimate cabin, however, has all the comforts of home the wifi is super strong and allows you to feel connected, but not so much that your not enjoying your stay. The location affords Nashville transplants or less noise seekers to allow for a brief respite from the noise and nonsense of Nashvegas! Once again Dave was extremely gracious and welcoming and we cherished our time at this great bed and breakfast. Please be advised that this a bed and breakfast and you must realize that others may be in the same structure, however you have ample space for doing your thing. We will certainly be back and we highly recommend this spot to get away.

The owner, John, met us at the desk and gave us a tour of the building before showing us our room. He was very friendly and welcoming. We stayed in the Daniel Smith room. It was very nice! The bed was comfortable, much more so than other places we've stayed in the past. There were extra pillows and a blanket in the closet, which we used. Both the sitting room and bedroom had black-out curtains to keep the street lamps outside from shining in. There were two flat screen TVs in our room, one in the sitting room and one in the bedroom. Both were remote-controlled. The sitting area had a sleeper sofa, but being only the two of us we didn't need it. The TV in the bedroom was the only one we watched, and it had several channels to choose from, including TBS, A&E, and the Travel Channel, all of which we watched. We also sat out on the front balcony for a while after it got dark. It was clean as well. We enjoyed sitting out there in the cool night air, talking and watching the cars go by. There were plenty of towels for us to use, and they were really soft. Today, we had lunch in the dining room onsite. We had the all-you-can-eat fried chicken with a variety of sides. The turnip greens, macaroni and cheese, and their corn bread muffins were delicious. The hotel has been modernized in respect to having bathrooms, air conditioning, heat, ceiling fans, WiFi, and flat screen televisions. But the antique sofas in the upstairs hallways and downstairs lobby as to the historical feel. The banister leading upstairs is also the original one from 1904. Also, the hotel itself is much bigger inside than it appears to be from outside. Also, it was the cleanest hotel we have stayed in. We loved our stay, and we highly recommend! A few extras I can offer anyone who interested in staying here are that while the onsite kitchen area closes at 3pm, there is a really nice restaurant about three doors down, called Ebel's. However, keep in mind reservations are recommended to ensure getting a table in a timely manner. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and they have live music on Saturday evenings. In addition, you don't have to stay in the hotel to dine in the dining room. It is open to the public for lunch daily. Usually they offer a meat and two or three vegetables for a set price, or Today (Sunday) they had the all-you-can-eat fried chicken (which consisted of both breast and tenders). Also, if you are in town and interested in the historical aspect of the hotel and/or downtown Carthage, I recommend taking a walk over to the historic courthouse on the square. There ware a number of markers that tell a little of the history of William Walton and the courthouse. If unlike me, you are not a history buff, there are shops on both sides of the street near the hotel. My personal favorites are the Candy Bar, Holly's, and Freestyle Canvas. Also, in regards to the hotel and all the downtown areas, there is additional parking in the new lot between the Candy Bar and Nobles. Or you can always park directly in front of the hotel, if there are spots available. If you need any other essentials while visiting, Walmart is about a mile away, along with Dollar Tree, Dollar General, Save-A-Lot, and Sav-Way (a great large neighborhood grocery).

For what it is (a small mom & pop place built from love, but not necessarily money) it was more than adequate. The heater was super warm which was nice. The fireplace was not a true "toss in the logs" type. The tub, I believe, used well water so there was always iron oxide hanging out (it looked like I was a frequent spray tanner.) I swear there was no way it was dirty. (In other words, fellow germaphobes, don't panic.) I wish it had more windows so I could have read in the tub. Lighting was not as strong as I would have liked. The ladybugs were wintering (to be expected in most cabin type places) inside and were extra friendly and a constant reminder spring was close at hand. I prefer fluffier pillows (Walmart wasn't far so we made a quick trip there for snacks and pillows.) It was a place to honestly do little more than veg. I needed it. There was satellite TV, small fridge and microwave. There was also strong 3G (at least) signal. No wifi. Also, if you want to take time to watch old VCR movies, they have a player. (Maybe consider leaving them behind if you won't be watching them again and help them build a library.) Don't miss breakfast at The Rose Garden. It reminded me of staying with grandma on the farm. It was large enough for breakfast, and we took left over steak and biscuits for a lunch snack all for under $8. There were woods behind us. We enjoyed watching the birds play in the leaves. The TTU arts center was nice to visit. Again, a great place to just get away. If you don't want the outside world to intrude, keep the TV off and turn off the cell phone.

I put down a $100 deposit and received a confirmation email (and a reminder email a couple of days before the trip). Upon check in, the staff was very thorough & helpful. They brought a golf cart up the hill to help with our large cooler, unloaded all of our stuff into the boat & showed the "captain" everything he needed to know. They were also very helpful with unloading and instructions to park it so they could fill up on gas, etc. We tried tipping the older gentleman who was helping all the customers but he requested I give it to the high school boy who was driving the golf cart. Such nice people and all very appreciative of our business. We will be back for sure! The actual lake was so clean and gorgeous, very little traffic. It was the first time in my life I was comfortable swimming in a lake because I could see down at least 10 feet! This experience was all around excellent and we will be back soon to rent another boat and take it out for the day. (Also, the cost is about $100 less than in Nashville, depending on the boat, where the lakes are crowded and not clean) Couple of things I forgot: They also helped fit our 7 year old for a kids life jacket and opened up our personal tubes and inflated them for us, free of charge. They also have a nice store with drinks, snacks, all sorts of other necessities and accessories for the lake and camping.
