Absolutely stunning. It is an older place, so you can hear your neighbors creeks as they walk around.But nothing crazy. Very romantic getaway. about 45 mins from downtown Gburg. Will be staying here again.

What a hidden gem near Townsend!! This is a very unique place to stay (I was just looking for a hotel room) The bed is comfortable, the bathroom has a neat walk in shower. Just like a bedroom with a gorgeous view of a mountain. If I'm ever back in the area, I will for sure stay again and a bit longer than just one night. Check in was SO easy. I didn't get the email because it was a last minute decision to stay, so I called and almost immediately got a text with information. Excellent find!!

We really loved this place and wish we had more time to stay. We only stayed for the night and we got in late and left early but even in the dark you can tell the property is beautiful! The room we had was super cute, clean, the shower was so nice and check in was super easy and contactless. The only con I can even give would be if you are a light sleeper go for a 2nd floor room our room was not and in the middle of the night someone going up the stairs about scared me to death lol but once I realized what it was I don’t think it would have bothered me after that and I would for sure stay here again! The location to the National Park is also great!

It was the most beautiful over night stay I’ve experienced in a very long time. I have nothing at all to say except good things. It was the closest to heaven I’ve ever felt and honestly have ever been. I would stay there again in a heartbeat and I know I will return to this extraordinary place. Thank you so much for having me and my mommy and for giving me some much needed comfort and joy reminding me that God is truly magnificent and very much alive. My heart overflows with gratitude. Magic took place during this one night stay. -Angell and Sheryl from across the state back in east TN.

This is a very non conventional, well appointed, scenic and peaceful place with loads of central areas for guests to enjoy! It’s very different from your ordinary B&B, resort or hotel. Be sure you know what floor you require as there are three levels and no elevator. And know that though there are fireplaces shown and jacuzzi style tubs listed in some rooms, the owner or management request that you don’t use them. Having noted that as a heads-up, you can’t go wrong. The place itself and the surroundings are very charming and scenic! I’d go back for sure.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The stay was amazing with a beautiful view. The only thing I could say was less than perfect was the doors. The main door would not latch unless you held it shut for a few seconds. It wasn’t the biggest issue ever but was a little annoying at times. The door to the room we stayed in could have used some things to help us feel more secure. What I mean by this is that the door had gaps above and below it and the frame. There also wasn’t really a lock on the door; it had a switch so that the keypad on the other side couldn’t be operated but it would have felt more secure with an actual lock. The property also has an amazing observation deck with a spectacular view the only issue is that if you go through the doors to the observation deck the only way back in is by going through the front door of the lodge there is no way to get back in through the door that leads to the observation deck. Overall an amazing experience but I feel like if the property felt a little more secure there wouldn’t be any other place I’d rather stay while in the pigeon forge/gatlinburg area.

The place was in a beautiful setting. Decorated superbly. Loved the themed doors and rooms. Difficult for many guest to use the locks. We helped one couple how to use the light in room. People would leave the main door ajar. And also saw/smelled guest smoking dope on grounds. A person just needs to be there.
