This place was so wonderful! It's in a great location to Cades Cove, nature trails, locally owned restaurants and more. I stayed here with my parents when I was a teenager and it was really great to come back with my own family.
Really enjoyed our stay with clean room with hot tub, majestic views of smokies from balcony and easy access to Cades cove. Loved this place.
Rooms were clean, Hosts were super helpful and friendly.
Would highly recommend staying here! The entire staff was friendly and accomodating. Location was great! Near the Smokey but away from the gimmicks in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.
The room was clean but it was a little outdated. The bed was wonderful. The lady at check in was absolutely wonderful. Just stayed 1 night would recommend.
A clean and quiet hotel close to the Great Smoky Mountains entrance and the Tuckaleechee Caverns. Staff was very helpful and respectful. If you are looking for a peaceful place to stay and to be close to nature, you would enjoy it as much as we did.
Wonderful stay! Very clean and comfortable and in a great location within a few miles to the entrance of the park. We would definitely stay here again.
We had the most peaceful, lovely stay. Housekeeping cleaned our room every day. The pool was the perfect temp. The view was incredible. We will be back next year!
