I liked our room and the staff was excellent. The drawbacks were parking and room access. We stayed on the 2nd floor, and there was a steep ramp to get to it. Very inconvenient. Other than that, really nice place

It was located right on the main street (Parkway) in Gatlinburg. So everything was within walking distance. Yet, surprisingly, there was no traffic noise in the room. Very clean room which was remodeled only a few months ago. I would defintely stay here again.

Best customer service. Staff was so welcoming and kind throughout stay. Great location the river drowned out the noise of the area. It felt like staying in a cabin. So close to all the things you’d want to see. Can’t wait to go back!

The staff was absolutely amazing. This is a new property so there was one or two things they were still figuring out but I loved our stay. When our fridge wasn't working they promptly sent someone up to fix it. Coincidentally that person was the husband of the woman baking my wedding cake! Was very happy with our stay here.
