We visit this property every few years and the only thing that we didn’t like this time was the exercise room had no working equipment. The pools and hot tubs were taken by the same people for two days. There ARE BEARS NEAR AND ON THIS PROPERTY SO BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS AT ALL TIMES. I was actually chased by one while my husband and I were enjoying the stream and taking pictures in front of the hotel. The cleaning staff do NOT speak English but the front desk staff are very helpful and friendly and DO speak English. We would love to have some more time at Edgewater but unless we could get some kind of coupon or a discount stay, I don’t think we can afford it in this economy anytime soon.
Stream in front of Hotel. BEARS ARE HERE!!

Really nice hotel, nice being walkable to everything or near the free trolly. Pool, hot tubs were great, and we didn’t realize we were gonna have a slide. My daughter had a blast. Breakfast very good with a nice river view.

Maintained, clean, comfortable.

Maintained older hotel. Not going to make you jump up and down like giddy school kids but it's clean and comfortable and the location is great. Continental breakfast ...served it's purpose...free and put something in your stomach to get started for the day. I would stay again.

Great scenery!!!!

It was a beautiful view of Gatlinburg with a touch of the river right beside it. There was bears that we saw on this day. Other than that it was a very nice hotel.
