Check in was more then 2-hrs late. Even after calling around 4 hours prior to arrival to confirm the reservation and checkin. Leaving us without somewhere to go with our young children after a long 8 hr drive to Gatlinburg. The water park is NOT included with your stay. Despite paying nearly $260 a night. When the resort advertises $150 a night and has reservations where the water park is included.

Nice, clean, fairly new, and convient property. We arrived in the afternoon, so i assume they werent as staffed as they would be peak hours. The lodge staff member helping the family ahead of us was awesome and gave a wealth of knowlege about the area and resort. Thankfully i listened to their group as i waited over 15mins in line that was only us and them until our staff member came and assisted us. She gave us nothing for info and really had short answers for our queations like she was ready to go home or an inconvenience. Property is nice but i dont think the web sites convey enough how big the property is. There must be 100 condos on this small side of a hill with each having 6-12 units in them. Parking is pleantiful but every space fills by evening. I also would have liked to have been able to pick or have an option of where our accommodations were. There are buildings to stay at the base of the hill - and there are places to stay at the top that have great views! Ours was by the road and noisy most of the night. I will warn it is a STEEP drive up and be sure you have good breaks to drive down. 3 pools besides the waterpark all of which are quite small. House was nice and clean and lovley bedding and wonderful big heavy pillows! BIGGEST surprise was the added $30 night resort fee. It is at the bottom of expedia mentioned when i went back but you might miss that. I asked whats it for, staff saidforselfparkingREALLY

Be prepared to shell out lots of $$$
The resort was ok. Not great for the money paid for it. Everything, and I mean everything, was extra money. The water park is not included in the very high price of the hotel. The only place close to get snacks or needed items is the market in the resort that is ridiculously overpriced. The service to get around was great. They offer shuttles to take you around the resort. The other services was pretty bad, at best. We had a bed and a pullout couch for the kids with no sheets. I had to ask twice to please bring up sheets and it took over an hour at 10:30 at night. We also ran out of toilet paper and ask three times over two days to please, please, bring us TP! Other than that, it was ok.

Nice resort between pigeon forge and gatlinburg. Across the street from the visitors center. Nice pools, mini golf. Only thing that is weird is you have to pay for the water park at the same rate someone off the street has to pay.

We had two rooms for this property, one at the bottom of the mountain, and the other one at the top of the mountain the one at the top of the mountain, the room was buried, pretty clean, except for the phone had sticky stuff all over it. When we first got to the property, we had dinner reservations that we had to cancel because the main entry door into our cabin would not lock, so we had to wait for maintenance to come fix the lock then later that evening, the smoke/carbon monoxide detector was going off in the middle of the night. Had to go wait in our truck for an hour and a half while they fixed it the very next night at 3 AM it goes off again. Had to wait an additional 45 minutes for maintenance to come and pull the smoke detectors off the wall. The unit that we had at the bottom of the mountain was very noisy. Could hear everything in the rooms around us. We had a water leak in our room from the upstairs unit. Our room smells very musty and mildew. It’s dark like a cave with one window, looking at the playground parking lot . When I called to see if we could move to a different room due to the noise in the smell, that was not an option and was told as far as the noise goes just call security every time there’s a noise complaint this whole stay has been very frustrating. Not relax , and there’s been no accommodation for all the issues we’ve had. I would’ve been better off staying at a hotel.
