The stories on the walls and other little quirks about the hotel was great to look at and to see/find. My wife and I really enjoyed our stay here and learning about the Appalachian trails. Great spot and very comforting it’s a family and safe place I never worried about any of my belongings there. 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!!

When we checked in, I inquired about hotel having a safe to store an item. I asked about retrieval in the AM and we were assured manager would be on duty to retrieve. At checkout there was a young lady, not the manager on duty. She could not get the safe open, was calling for assistance and I began panicking. Long story short, we did get our item when manager arrived. It did, however, delay our departure. Other than that, our stay was great!! Hotel was lovely and rooms super comfy.

Great stay

The hotel was very clean and the staff were friendly. It has very fun decor for the mountain area. It’s situated nicely by being close to the main Gatlinburg area, but far enough for it to be quiet in the evening. Breakfast was ok, typical but not extraordinary.

Great Hotel

Our stay was good. We did have an issue that I won't go into detail about but it was handled by Amanda the general manager in the best way possible. She was truly kind and accommodating under the circumstances. We would stay again!

We had a great experience. The theme was interesting and the pool was a great place to relax and for the kids play. While it was a little noisy due to road noise it was easily ignored. We will definitely go back.

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
