This Resort saved my Vacation. It was such a pleasure to stay here. The details in the property and price was amazing. Themed to a log Cabin in the woods and many Historic information abou the Appalachian trail. I found myself just admiring all the artwork and theming througout the property. It was like staying in a museum of informatiom. Waterslides for the kids. Rooms amazing themed. I felt loke i was staying in a Log Cabin. Beds incredible comfortable. Highly recommend.

Great hotel!

The hotel is very clean and the rooms are comfortable. They are not located near all of the businesses in Gatlinburg, but do offer a free parking pass for a garage on the parkway. We’ve stayed at several hotels in the area and this is one of our favorites!

Staff was friendly, hotel was quiet, outside pool has a slide and is extremely kid friendly.... if you know, you know. I have 4 year olds and they were very comfortable playing independently since the pool is not very deep!

The Appy Lodge is in a great location in Gatlinburg but easy to get to Pigeon Forge. The two pools are convenient and the breakfast was good.
