Perfect place to stay whilst visiting Pigeon Forge
Pros:

Location. From a riverside room you could be miles from the bedlam of Pigeon Forge but in reality you are right where you need to be.
Loved the cookies, popcorn and hot/cold drinks, non alcoholic, from 7pm to 10pm every night.

Cons:

Breakfast was ok. No pastries were evident just a few cinnamon rolls. The Waffle mixture was too thin and put me of waffles for a while, probably a good thing. That’s it

Very relaxing and a nice time. Location was good and easy to get to. Beautiful both inside and out. Sorry, apparently
Pros:

Everything from the moment we registered. Very professional employees at the desk, even the cleaning personal always said hello and asked us about our stay. Beautiful lounge to socialize, outdoor fire pit, and an amazing breakfast buffet… are just a few of your beautiful Inn.

Cons:

Cannot say anything… because we never experienced anything negative!
