We've stayed at all of the above. My favorite is the Burnin Stump. Nice to have covered parking for your boat. Not fancy, but clean rooms and a cold a/c. That's about all I'm looking for.

ton of places to stay lots of air bnb's if you want to get like a whole house or just a tiny cabin. that is usually what i do
but all the motels should have rooms. I cant think of any place you should stay away from most any place you choose will be good.

Great place, rent a cabin. You're 8 minutes from Emroy and restaurants, No need to stay in Emory. Stay right there on the water in a cabin @ Pope's.

Popes is fine! Is the mexican place there still open or did it close? I haven't spent much time at Fork this year.
