    We stay at Clabough's every year. We love this place. Two pools, a lazy river, everything a kid could want.

    Buddy Bear is no "Buddy" to smaller-sized travel trailers…read more I recently stayed 3 nights (Dec 27 - Dec 30) at Buddy Bear RV Campground and was very disappointed with what transpired. I booked my stay from their webpage and received a confirmation email on December 15th for Site #4 which is the one I reserved. Site #4 is a premium site according to the website and it costs a bit more than a regular site. My fiancée and I wanted to stay along the river and at the time that was the only site available along the river. The day I arrived for my stay, Dec 27th, I received an email at 12:37 PM, So around check-in time, stating I was moved to site #21 which is a regular site and not along the river. It is also not large enough for a travel trailer and the towing vehicle to park in. I asked the manager lady why I was moved to a different site and was met with the following responses: "We try to put smaller campers in the smaller sites and save the bigger ones for potential larger campers to rent out." "It's a very common thing, we've been doing this for 30 years and you guys are new campers you'll see." "Park your vehicle over behind the dumpsters if it won't fit at your new smaller site." "The river is still close by as it's just across the street." "You should lock in the site if you want it that bad but it will cost extra." (There isn't an option on the website to Lock-In a site) Someone was already residing in site #4 upon my arrival, I can only conclude they extended their stay and the managers or owners didn't want to move them and figured it would be easier to move me. When we asked for a refund of the difference between the premium site and the regular site I was informed there were no refunds. I also asked to be moved to a different site along the river as there were 5 available at the time of my arrival. The site's 5/7/9/10/11 were all available still and along the river. I was informed that they were all booked up for the holidays and there was nowhere else to put me. Once we kept asking for the refund difference, ONLY THEN, did a premium site magically become available for use. Site #18 is not by the river but at least a large spot for my travel camper and tow vehicle. They had to inform the tenant on site #17 to move his extra vehicles from the site so I could use it. To be clear, they were going to put me in a smaller site, and not give me a refund of the difference before telling someone else to move their extra vehicles from a site they weren't paying for. At the end of the day, I stayed in a "premium site" although it wasn't near the river like I wanted. But we are at least even financially. The morning I was packing up my travel trailer to depart, DEC 30, I took another lap around and wouldn't you know, Premium Site #9 along the river was never booked or used from the moment I showed up until the moment I left. This means they lied about being "completely booked up for the Holidays" We will never be staying here again. My Mother and her Husband won't be, my fiancée and her family won't be either, nor will some of my Army buddies when we take group trips in our campers. From now on we will be staying at Ripplin Waters, it's $57.50 a night there or $60 during holidays so also more budget-friendly! They have over 150 sites with more than 40 along the river. Best of all THEY WON'T MOVE YOU TO ANOTHER SITE OR DISCRIMINATE BASED ON THE SIZE OF YOUR CAMPER.

    I think the name has changed to Buddy Bear and currently they are short staffed so everything like…read morecheck in is done virtual and with a code for the gate. I enjoyed this campground because it's by the river, small, quiet, and away from all the chaos of pigeon forge. However it's close enough to get to amenities and tourist areas if desired.

    This is our first time staying at the Landing resort and wont be our last. Absolute hidden gem…read more Quiet and clean, no frills but spacious spots and well maintained. Walking distance to Iron Forged Brewery and Apple Barn.

    This campground is a new "resort" type layout. Being new, the trees are small throughout the park…read more It truely markets to a "resort" customer. So, there are standards on how old a camper can be. Yep, that sounds kind of harsh but it does keep the quality of the camping experience high. If you either object, or don't meet the standard, choose somewhere else. There are 74 parks in the Pigeon Forge market. The park borders the Little Pigeon River and is very scenic. It is really close to shopping, restaurants and attractions. All sites are paved and average size. Concrete pads are level, you won't need any blocks to get set up. Each site has full hook-ups and the connections are centrally located on each site so hook-ups should be easy no matter where your connections are. Power is stable, water pressure is excellent and water quality is good. Cable TV channels are plentiful. Restrooms are modern and spotlessly clean. Laundry facilities have state of the art LG washers and dryers. Park wifi is very good. Cell signals are very strong. If you're using satellite TV or StarLink Internet, you'll find most sites have excellent access. There is a large dog park for pet exercise. The developers did their homework when laying out the park as all site are easy access for even the biggest rigs. The outer ring of sites are back-in type with excellent angles to make easy parking of the rig. We camped at Pigeon Forge Landing RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.

    Beware when renting from this company. They have "owner rentals" that they have no interest in…read moreexcept a financial interest. They do not care if the rental is clean or if everything is functioning. We had an awful experience in the owner cabin that we rented called "Arrowhead Ridge." The photos on their website are quite deceiving and are not current. The place is run down, and quite dirty. The well needs some maintenance. Run the water and soon the smell of rotten eggs permeates the entire cabin. If you shower in that water, you smell the same. It's gross. We bathed and brushed our teeth with bottled water. They offer an outdoor grill that is so caked with grease it's dangerous. As soon as we walked in the door the smell of mildew slapped us in the face. While this might be expected if the place had been closed up for a long while but according to the website, the cabin was rented everyday throughout the summer. That tells me it's a maintenance issue. We left and found a hotel in Pigeon Forge because we all got sick due to allergies - dust and mold. We called the company to tell them we'd left early so they could send someone to deep clean. The cleaning that we paid for, we were told, consisted of wiping the floors, cleaning the bathrooms, and changing the linens. I didn't ask for a refund, but the first words out of the rental agent's mouth were "well sorry you feel that way but there are no refunds." What a disappointment. We were really looking forward to this vacation and cabin retreat but in the end, it was a very expensive mistake. I prepared a similar review on their website, but they chose not to post it.

    ‼Warning!!!!!!‼…read more This was one of the worst Cabins that I have ever rented. My family and I lease a cabin in the mountains 1-2 times a year. We are pretty familiar with cabins and the little quirks that may come along with them. This cabin was the ABSOLUTE WORST! The moment we walked in the door there was a puddle from a leak in the ceiling. The entire place had a stench and no matter how much febreeze we sprayed it kept coming back. It was unbelievably cold downstairs and we had the heat up as far as it could go. As well as the small heaters. The water smelled like rotten eggs so we found out that the stench was due to the water. After looking into the situation it appeared that there was bacteria in the water. We had to buy gallons of water to wash with/ clean dishes/wash hands/brush teeth! It was horrible. We attempted to notify the management group and the response for the downstairs temp was it's not their fault, we attempted to advise of the stinch. She stated they use well water. [ Many cabins that we have leased in the past use well water and NEVER smelled bad.] The water actually made the entire cabin stink! The response from this team was totally unacceptable as they took no responsibility in the condition of this property! Please be warned!
