Room was great. Property is in a pretty location. But it is not truly a resort. it’s a timeshare property. Resort fees without the resort amenities. Did not clean our room. Did not offer any option for a late checkout. Front desk is available by text messaging which is nice but does not provide much information or offer help in response to questions. Minimal food options on the property but fortunately Gatlinburg has a variety of wonderful places to eat.

Everything is very good, very good impressions of the place, but the sales area overshadows everything magnificent about the hotel, super tedious, disrespectful to the customer, they tell him that they have a 90-minute tour of the place and they have 5 hours wasting your time and my money trying to sell rooms that in the end, if it suits the customer, they tell you that without commitments and then they get brave, the kindness is over and already, they retire and this is like a dog they played with him and they finished.

The water park was definitely a hit for the kids and for us to see them have so much fun. We absolutely will be returning. Thank you :)

AVOID TIMESHARE PRESENTATION!

The resort itself is amazing, well kept, and the front desk staff are very helpful. However, DO NOT let them talk you into attending the timeshare presentation. They had a great deal on some amusement tickets that we were going to purchase anyway. We just had to attend the presentation to get the tickets. I asked the concierge FOUR TIMES how long it would last and he said "no more than 90 minutes". 4.5 hours into the presentation we realized that was a lie. As another review on here has said, it is very high pressure and they basically expect you to purchase a timeshare. Luckily, my wife and I stood strong and refused. They were very unhappy, but as I told them, WE PAID TO BE HERE! We were not there on some free two night getaway that required a timeshare presentation. All that to say, this is a wonderful property with great amenities and staff. Just make sure you STAY AWAY from the timeshare presentation!
