Quaint Motel nestled in the heart of Gatlinburg
This quaint Motel is such a refreshing change from the huge multi-story Hotels. Love it. You have your own assigned parking spot, easy access to downtown Gatlinburg walking or driving. Lovely seating by the creek. Just all around great place to stay.

Great stay!
This is a great, off of the Main Street hideaway.
It is old-school in character but very clean, well maintained, quaint and comfortable. It sits right along the creek with lovely outdoor seating as well as rockers on the porch. The rooms are small but have all that you need.
The family that owns it take pride in its care.
The price was very reasonable. It’s an easy 5 minute walk to the busy Gatlinburg strip and there is also a shuttle bus stop at the motel if you want to ride to any of the other attractions in town. We would stay here again if we came back.
