It’s good place except the parking…

10/10

The view was amazing and the staff was so kind. Over all I will totally use this hotel again!
3-night trip

8/10

Perfect place for 1-2 nights. Super convenient location! We got a room with the view of the river, it was great! Don't be afraid to book here!
1-night trip

8/10

The location is excellent. It overlooks the babbling, west prong, Little Pigeon River. I think we had the best room in the place. We looked out onto the river and some trees and not the adjacent hotel. The staff was very friendly. The place is clean. The continental breakfast was no big deal, but there was plenty of it. I would have given a rating of five, except that the rooms need updating and maintenance.
5-night trip

8/10

Location is a block off the main strip , easy to get to and not so noisy. Room was right on the river with nice balcony. Breakfast was good. Negatives were pool was closed and room had a very musty smell

Geese hung around but were no issue

8/10

Nothing special, but the price and for one night, it was good. At check-in the employee made it very clear to lock my car and not leave food inside it because of bears. Sure enough, saw one walk through the parking lot a short while later.

2-night trip

10/10

Perfect location! Very clean and GREAT views from the balcony. Will definitely stay here from now on. It is located at the far end of Gatlingburg, so if you want to miss all the traffic, the bypass is the perfect way to travel back and forth to Pigeon Forge.

This is our 2nd time staying here. It’s at the end of the strip about a block from the main road. Our standard room was clean and has been updated.

Nice to sit by water. Relaxing. Very short walk to Main Street amenities. Quiet. Day shift front desk very nice. Bare bones clean hotel. Breakfast minimal. Priced accordingly and have low expectations.

This is one of those hidden gems in Gatlinburg. Along the river, but not right on the main road so it is much nicer. Rooms are older but still quite nice.
