Pros

Pet-friendly rooms available for dogs with designated walking areas

ADA-compliant facilities including wheelchair-accessible rooms with roll-in showers

Well-lit parking lot with electrical hookups for boats

On-site guest laundry facilities and 24-hour front desk

Cons

49.5 miles distance from McGhee Tyson Airport

Outdoor pool operates seasonally only (May through September)

“While one staff member receives high praise, reports of unauthorized room entry and alleged racial profiling raise serious concerns. Broken hot water and non-functional elevators, particularly impacting guests with mobility issues, further detract from the experience. It appears some travelers have faced significant service failures.”
