I highly recommend Dock's Motel which is right on the Little River and there is private access (for guest at Dock's). Walk from your room to the river. Watch the rocks in the river. They are like walking on ice!!! Make sure to have a wading staff and use it. Do stop at Little River Outfitters and they can let you know what flies are working best. It may be very crowded with many people there looking at the leaves and taking pictures.
Not sure when you are going but I talked to Sharon, owner of Dock's Motel, and she told me they would be closed for vacation and I think she said the first 2 weeks of November. I was trying to reserve a room for the Fly Tying demo in Townsend on Nov. 8th & 9th.

Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.
