Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Clean, neat, and well-equipped. Thank goodness for reliable GPS because in no place did I see a sign saying "Gator Den"; look for "Angler's something." Had no cell service with T-Mobile (occasionally one bar), plus Wi-Fi was too slow to stream or even load web pages with graphics. Plus TV wasn't working. To their credit, after much troubleshooting, they got it working before the evening was over; in the meantime, I had to find a sports bar to watch the first half of the Gator game. To be honest, I wish I'd gone with the Comfort Inn, but if you are in Dunellon to fish and don't care about the technology, it might be a nice spot for you.

We had to book last minute, and we were grateful for the accommodation. But the walls were thin and we could hear people partying on both sides of us until 3am. Not a place to bring family or to chill.

We booked The Gator Den last minute and we were not disappointed. The front desk staff was very nice and very helpful. The room was filled with clean towels and was very clean! The only thing that I was upset with is the bar/restaurant is closed on Wednesdays! Other than that it was a great stay!

Great Spot To Stay!
Great place! Rooms just got redone so they are great! Service was so top notch! Boat rentals there and we fished off the dock and caught a bunch of fish. They were there the whole time to help us! Stay here if you are in the area!

Perfect for a small town
The room was amazing, so clean and had everything we needed. Love, love that they had a keurig in the room. Microwave and small refrigerator! We there for a Wedding and was concerned that it was close to the road, no worries slept like a baby. I do recommend they need blackout curtains! Would definitely stay there again

Small Gem
This is a small gem. Parking was right but there is a space for each room. Convenient bar and restaurant attached. You can rent a boat or a slip. Personal is friendly and helpful. I have nothing bad to say about this stay.
