Will Book Again
Nothing is perfect in this world, however the room was good and we were comfortable. Great price. I loved the creekside view. I will book again and recommend to family and friends.
Christine, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Property was clean and we saw a bear twice during our visit! Located right near the trolley stop for easy access to downtown without having to deal with parking fees, or was close enough to easily walk also.
Breha, 4-night trip

We love the quiet peaceful setting. The creek running out back is great.

Laura, 5-night trip

4/10 Fair

$200 per night and the hotel does not provide basics like toilet paper replacement and clean towels unless you walk to the front desk building also you have to pick up all the garbage cause they do that provide that service they also don’t change the beds

Carrie, 3-night trip

Great place
The balcony was so cute and view of the creek was lovely. The fridge worked well and the clean towels were nice. The tiles in the entry way were a little scuffed up but the staff was great! We'll definitely be back. It's right in Gatlinburg so very walkable to sites and downtown.

Not as promised
Asked to have bed made everyday and even left tip daily and no one came. Was requested at check in. Not happy with using dirty towels.
Michael, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I really enjoyed it. If I were to go back to the area I would stay there again
Robin, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This little hidden gem is my favorite place to stay in Gatlinburg. The creek behind the property is soothing and this time of year the bear activity is abundant. Such a perfect place to get away, and the Parkway shopping is only a ten minute walk. Best of both worlds.
Melinda, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

We got this room to go to the Gatlinburg parade. We usually just drive home but we wanted stay a night away for some couple alone time. The guy who we had to call to come to the office to check is in was nice. The beds were really small and when you laid in the bed your feet go up. The pillows are very small and flat. We ended up leaving and drove the hour home.

Great stay
What a lovely hidden gem. All the rooms had balconies that overlook the creek so you dont have to worry about that. Check in wqs seamless and friendly. And let me just say those beds were the most comfortable beds ive ever slept in at home or in a hotel. Alittle sad i didn't spot a bear but thats not their fault
Andrea, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a great stay and it exceeded our expectations. We would definitely stay here again.

It was a very nice place to stay. Was within walking distance. In the evenings while relaxing on the balcony was able to see nature and had the chance to see a few black bears.
