Stayed overnight, room was very nice and clean. It's been recently remodeled, bed was comfortable, Close to town, walking distance to the museum, and some of the shops. Staff was very nice and friendly. Room had great view of the mountain side. Nice, quite and peaceful place to stay.
Our family stayed here in a Double King and loved it! It was so spacious and so nice. My favorite part was the beautiful mountain view from our room. The location allowed us to walk to all the local shops, eats, cultural events and to swimming in the river. We greatly enjoyed our time here and decided to make our visits here regularly.
Place has been updated with ok furniture and clean rooms and bathrooms, but lacks a designer's touch. We own timeshares and are used to larger units and better lighting, door locks, art in the room, etc. Was wishing we had chosen Hampton as we were first inclined to book.
The deluxe rooms have a lot of space! One of the biggest bath rooms I have ever seen in a hotel as well. The hotel is right across the street from many shops and the river. I would recommend this hotel. This is a new hotel and they are still improving to make there service and accommodations even better. It is so new we had to go ask the front desk how to turn the shower on, as the faucet was high tech. The bath tub/shower was a bit slippery and could use some traction tape or suction matts.Overall a good experience.
We stayed for a week. The staff was very friendly the rooms are very clean. All we had to do was Park our car and walk to so many attractions in a beautiful area. We went swimming and fishing in the river (just a walk across the street) and the front desk had tubes you can sign out for free. Went horseback riding, hiked the Falls, there is a Transit that can take you anywhere in Cherokee for $1!! We walked to "Unto To These Hills" which was a nice outdoor drama to see. We hiked along a beautiful River and came to an old settlement Village ... All for free and had so much fun ! The casino had a good show going on that we enjoyed with excellent food . There is the river and park across the street. Lots of beautiful shops affordable prices. We even went to a gym that had a heated pool and lots of machines to workout on for five bucks! So much to do and it's all right there at this Lodge! The park is really beautiful at night, we had a evening picnic there. I am definitely coming here every year. It was so quiet here at night and so beautiful to view the pretty mountains from the rocking chairs outside our room. We even saw elk walk right across our Doorway! The elk are so huge there about a thousand pounds. LOL ...this Lodge is the only one in Cherokee that is on the elk path! Oh one last thing .... bring a bike, there is a new 13 Mile fire tower bike trail right behind the lodge up the mountain. It was exciting and fun to ride!
Wi-Fi was great, rooms were very clean and comfortable. The single queen bedroom was perfect for 2 people!! Lots of places within walking distance. excellent atmosphere!! Convenience stores next door. Recommend going to Peters Pancakes which was 1/2 mile from the hotel. 33 miles from Gatlinburg this is a great spot.
