“This resort stands out for its dual nature, equally adept at hosting vacationers and large conventions. The main draw is undeniably the location, placing guests steps away from Gatlinburg's attractions. Expect clean, comfortable rooms that, while somewhat dated, provide a solid base for exploring the nearby Great Smoky Mountains.”
