Yes I saw a bear!!

Absolutely lovely stay in this small boutique hotel. Quiet but friendly, easy to walk to what is needed, but far enough away to enjoy nature. Yes, I did see a bear!

Excellent lodge feel and room for the mountain area. This hotel checkin was easy, clean and private. I wish we had more time to see the area more but look forward to coming back here again. Beware because when we pulled down the street first thing on the side of the road was a black bear. I thought it was fake to welcome the tourists, but nope that thing was real. Just keep an eye out when visiting the mountains as it is real you may see them. Overall a great place and stay.

The best stay in Gatlinburg!

Absolutely stunning hotel! The design is beautifully thought out, blending clean, modern comfort with a cozy mountain ambiance. Our room was spotless and so inviting—we truly loved our stay. The staff were all warm and welcoming, and a special shoutout to Kesha at the bar who made me the best cocktail after a long drive. It was exactly what I needed!

A must stay!

Celebrated our 10th Anniversary here and loved it! Once e arrived and got settled into our premium king room we decided to extend our stay. The premium room wasn’t available so we had to move to a one bedroom suite which is smaller. I wouldn’t select the one bedroom again. Bathroom awkward and bed uncomfortable. The premium king room was superior! Bed was soo comfy and bathroom was huge! Extra pillows and blanket are supplied as well. Continental Breakfast supplies consisted of yogurt, fruit, muffins & cereal, coffee, tea & juices. There are menu options you can purchase which we did and they were good! Restaurant was closed The evenings we were there. I was impressed to see the young gentleman who cleans, on a ladder cleaning the inside of the outdoor lights! Fire pits were lit every morning and night. The staff were all very friendly!! Walking distance to downtown, about 12 minutes. Steep road to walk back up so be mindful. There’s a huge parking lot at the bottom of the road with $10 parking if you don’t want the walk up the hill.
