This hotel was perfect for our one-night stay, conveniently located in Gatlinburg and a very private feel! The balcony overlooking the river was a great highlight.

The staff was absolutely amazing. This is a new property so there was one or two things they were still figuring out but I loved our stay. When our fridge wasn't working they promptly sent someone up to fix it. Coincidentally that person was the husband of the woman baking my wedding cake! Was very happy with our stay here.

Hotel had great views of the creak Unfortunately there are no blinds on the balcolny doors so anyone can see in. In the morning we saw a few men outside fly fishing so it was very easy for anyone to walk up and watch into your room. Parking lot was also very small and was a one way. You have to drive up to check in than very carefully back up in a confined space to get to your parking spot.

We liked the room itself and the balcony was definitely our favorite. The staff was great and attentive. The only critique I could give is about the a/c unit. It was very loud and for a property being recently remolded, I don't understand why a luxury property still has window units.
