A small, family-run motel at the foot of Appalachia — renovated rooms, memory-foam beds, a seasonal pool, and a short drive to the most storied rock formation in Lee County.
Route 58 has curved past this granite profile for as long as anyone in Pennington Gap can remember — long enough that the mountain, the food mart, and now the inn all borrowed its name. We're a short drive from the trailhead, under new management, with a quieter, better-kept version of the motel that's stood here for years.
Clean, renovated rooms. Memory-foam beds. A pool that's actually open in summer. And a front desk that knows the area by heart.
Both rooms sleep up to four, with the same big memory-foam beds, fridge, microwave and cable — the only real difference is the stairs.

A quieter perch above the parking lot, tucked back from the road. All the comforts of our standard room in a cozier footprint.
A good, quiet night — and the pool's on us, too.
You didn't drive all the way to Lee County to watch cable. Here's what folks tell us about most.
The granite profile overlooking Pennington Gap — a steep but short climb up a well-marked trail. Locals swear the face watches over the valley. We're inclined to agree. Bring good shoes and a camera; pack water in summer.

The historic pass pioneers cut through on their way west — now a national park with overlooks, caves, and wagon-rut trails.

Flat riverside walking & biking — easy miles, shaded in summer and blazing with color through October.

Main Street diners, a coffee shop, the Lee Theatre marquee, and folks who wave back.

A rail-sized hole carved clean through the mountain. Chairlift down if the knees aren't what they used to be.
We answer the phone at the front desk from early morning 'til late, and we check email every day.
