Reviews and Ratings
I had a decent stay at this hotel that has great potential. The location is perfect for exploring Pigeon Forge, being right across from The Island, which is full of attractions. My room was cozy and fairly clean, but it needed a bit more attention to detail. The dining options were satisfactory, but not impressive. Overall, it's a good place for the price, but there are a few areas that could use improvement.
