The site looked nice, there rooms were nice, the staff was very friendly. You can walk to the strip which takes about 20 min. Easy walk, did it several times a day. There is also a free shuttle run by the city that runs a loop and stops at the Appy. So very easy if you don't want to walk. The fire pits are charming and a nice place to hang out in the evenings. I would definately stay here again

Great Stay! The only negative is the building has a single elevator that takes a while to get to you during busy times. But, it's not anything that would keep us from going back. Just beware if you're ridiculously impatient. lol

Overall good stay. Far from heart of Gatlinburg

First time stay. The Hotel sits at the entrance of Gatlinburg and on the Trolley stop. Walking distance to Flap Jacks pancake house next door. Hotel was decorated very well, charming mountain lodge style. A little old, but still a nice stay. 2 nights with our 20 year old kids. We didn’t use the pool though it looked bigger online. Missed the hot tub because it was too late and closed when we got back from our day in Gatlinburg. Outdoor gas fire pits and rocking chairs were nice. River not really visible from back deck. Beds were small but mostly comfortable. Good size bathroom with some toiletries provided. No rollaway beds available. The continental Breakfast was just ok-the usual carb heavy choices and boiled eggs. Ok for the money but next time I’ll stay closer to main drag for less.
