Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room had plenty of space. As other reviews dead bugs and not clean. Stains on linens and the back patio to the view did not seem safe at all. Was only there one night because our cabin had no openings but would not stay there again. Updated looking photos are correct except it was probably updated years ago and not cleaned since.

We really enjoyed our 1 night stay! We only stayed 1 night because we had another hotel room back near nashville, but we decided to make the drive to Gatlinburg for 1 night. Beautiful balcony view, easy parking and walkable to everything. We would definitely return for another vacation! Staff was helpful and kind.

The room was not clean, especially the floor. Although the staff was nice, the room was not ready for visitors and had a bad smell when we arrived. I could not recommend this property.

You have a view of the creek but there was trash in it. Across the creek looks to be abandoned houses so the view isn't anything special. We stayed a total of 3 nights. On the 3rd night I woke up to something crawling up my arm. We just wanted a quick inexpensive room to get away and that is what we got.
