"Stay away from this place !!!! I feel like I was robbed and I know I was scammed by the girl that was working there! She had a sign on the counter saying Cash Only which I paid! When we got to the room and realized that the beds were hard as a rock and the bathroom was dirty we went back to the office and said we wanted our money back because we couldn’t sleep on the bed and she smirked and said it doesn’t work that way just because we didn’t like the bed and refused to give us the money!!! She was very rude and I believe she scammed us!!!!!"

"Well I came there expecting for them to have a Spa. Because they said that had one on their website. Then I called them before I even came to get the prices for the Spa and they said that the person was not there that day. To me to call back. But it was already time for me to go there so I told myself I would see the prices when I get there. So i get there and there is no Spa. I was very upset. Then they said that they had free breakfast in the morning. But there was no actual breakfast. Only cakes and I am a diabetic. So i could not eat there. Also I went to take my shower and it took about 20 minutes for the water to get warm. The shower had no water pressure. It took me a hr and a half just to take my shower. The restaurant was good there. "

"I had high hopes for this place, especially after seeing it featured on Motel Rescue, but unfortunately, the experience fell short. The room itself was clean, which I appreciated, but there was a noticeable mildew/musty odor that made it uncomfortable to spend much time inside. The riverfront setting is beautiful and has a lot of potential, but the grounds need significant upkeep. There were cobwebs throughout, and many of the outdoor furnishings looked either unsafe or unused for quite some time—I didn’t feel comfortable sitting on them. One of the more confusing aspects of our stay was the lack of a proper check-in process. There was no office, and the only person initially available to help us was a contractor who had just demolished the office building. He eventually flagged down some staff members driving by in a golf cart, and they checked us in that way. This situation could have been much smoother with clear communication ahead of arrival. Our room did include a small deck, which was a nice feature and offered a bit of relief from the indoor smell. However, it also had cobwebs and signs of neglect, which made it hard to fully enjoy. While it technically overlooked the river, the view was quite limited. The highlight of our stay was dinner nearby at Suwannee Belle Landing—I highly recommend checking it out if you’re in the area. Overall, with better maintenance and clearer communication, this property could be a much more enjoyable place to stay."

"We booked a stay at Black Prong Resort for my husband’s birthday and it could not have been more perfect. The property is stunning and so peaceful—exactly what we needed to slow down and enjoy the weekend. It felt private, cozy, and really special. We made some great memories here and can’t wait to come back!"
