Had hoped for better.

The staff was accommodating and friendly. No problem there but the room was not clean, old. I was expecting way more than I got based on the write up. No mattress covers on the beds, everything felt moist, sticky but that could have been the environment of being near the woods during the summer. I wouldn't stay again.

I liked that going out the front door I was only 5 minutes walking from downtown Gatlinburg, and out the back door I was in nature looking down at a flowing brook. Room was clean, comfortable and looked just about as advertised. Only possible complaint would be the eggs at breakfast.

Do not waste your money!

The room was filthy with cobwebs hanging from the ceiling and light fixtures. My feet stuck to both the carpeted and noncarpeted floors. The lighting was dark and dingy. Bed linens and bath towels were thread bare. At least the AC worked and the shower was hot. Forget the included breakfast! It was quite unappetizing. Unless you like watery eggs and rubbery sausage. To end on a positive note, the outdoor pool and hot tub was decent. This place has character and potential but is in severe need of lots of care and maintenance.

Customer service

We booked a room for two adults and two children. Per instructions, we emailed after check in to see if we could get a handicapped accessible bathroom, if not we would need to bring a shower chair. I received a email back stating that my reservation was taken care of. On the day of arrival, we checked in, unpacked vehicle & rolled everything up to the room to find out there was only one king bed. It was frustrating but I went back down to the office to let them know if the problem. They told me that hotels.com are the ones who made the mistake on the booking and that I would either have to pay an upgrade fee or call hotels.com to get it straightened out. I was calm & didn’t throw a fit & walked out to make the phone call…a few seconds later the hotel clerk came out & told me they were going to figure it out for me. They proceeded to get me a room with 2 beds that also was handicapped accessible and did not charge me anything additional. Great customer service on their part.

The lodge was in a nice location not far from downtown Gatlinburg. The river behind the lodge was amazing to listen to after a long day. The room was very dark, the bathroom was not cleaned very well. There was hair all over the bathroom wall. The one bed did not have a mattress protector on it and the fitted sheet was so stretch out that it would not stay on. The pool was as described but it could use some fixing up. The breakfast was okay for a free breakfast but it would be nice if they switched it up some. They service the same thing everyday, when on a longer trip it just gets old and their was no fresh fruit like it states.

Overall it was good! The view out back of the room was beautiful! The room overalll was very nice. The bed was very comfortable. The only draw back was breakfast was very plain and simple. The coffee was extremely weak and watery.
