Rooms were exceptional based on space and cleanliness on check-in. The hostess seemed annoyed upon check-in and it continued throughout our stay when we had to approach the front desk. The rest of the staff were beyond accommodating and friendly, so it was very strange and seemed out of place and off-putting the four times we went to the front desk, from check-in to check-out.

Perfect!! Breakfast was great, maybe last another 30 minutes but it was great! We’ve stayed a couple times now, it’s a great location with pools, and quick walk to the apple place to eat and to Walgreens for any needs. Our room smelled so good! Oh my gosh! I loved staying in the 2nd floor as well! Perfect balcony, and room! The room was exceptional!

Myself and my friend did not have breakfast during our stay. I did love this hotel though, the location was perfect, the free parking was welcome. All the staff we encountered were helpful and friendly. What I enjoyed the most was the hotel felt quirky in a good way, the room was old fashioned but I loved that and we both enjoyed the rocking chairs on the balcony. I would have no problem recommending this hotel and if I’m lucky enough to come back to Gatlinburg I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Excellent location for trips to Dollywood and restaurants on route 441. Condos are spacious and comfortable, with a great view of the golf course. Our condos was also well equipped and lacked nothing. We were proactively notified by the resort that we could do an early check-in as our condo was ready earlier than the scheduled time. Excellent equipment in fitness centre.

A wide array of shopping is available but traffic during our stay was particularly heavier than any previous visit. Good selection of restaurants is also seen with mixed genre available. Found side streets to be effective travel mode during the busier portions of our stay. Pigeon Forge is an effective central location to access antique stores, flea markets, Convention Centers, and Great Smoky mountains.

What a great experience. We zip lined with my family on Ober mountain and purchased the online thrill pass, you wont be disappointed with the experience and vale. We experienced wild Black Bears in the city and many other things to do we didn't even scratch the surface and will return again with more family members. If you get hungry take your family to Smith and Son restaurant Great food, staff and value.

If you're going to the park, the hotel is situation close to the entrance. It's located near stores but not walking distance to them. The casino is located directly across the street. For the Sun-Thu rate, I'm not sure you'll be able to find a better place. Rooms were nice and we were able to park a few steps from our door. The breakfast was minimal.

We love this area and visit often.

We love this area and visit often. Our main focus is driving the roads but we do like to take time (or a rainy day) to head to Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge or Knoxville to check out the tourist attractions. Maryville is wonderfully central to everything that we want to see or do and has a ton of places to eat, stay, get gas, etc.
