I stayed in the Mill House Cabin, which is now one of my favorite rentals of all time! Sitting on the underside of the bridge, you have no neighbors shy of the ranger residence up a private driveway leading to the visitor center / aviary area. With great access to trails, walking distance to the restaurant, and pretty much central to everything while being secluded and private at the same time. I did one of the ranger-led night floats, for a little history and a night sounds segments, which was also amazing! The park is relatively near to Chattanooga or Fall Creek Falls as well if you are interested in day trips!

My friends and I stayed at camp sites 1-4 over the weekend. The campground is secluded. Our sites…read morewere primitive. There was water at our site, and each site had a charcoal grille, a fire pit, and a spot for the tent. The staff was very friendly and the marina had sandwiches and a few other food items for sale. They rent boats, pontoons, and boat slips. Our party rented a pontoon. It was clean and seemed to be fairly new. The bathroom is at the marina. It's a one seater. It was about a 1/2 mile walk from our campsite. There is a shower house near the marina as well as a small playground for kids. There are two hoses to wash the mud off your vehicles, and the shower house has one shower and one toilet each for men and women. The best part by far are the falls and the views. We had a ton if rain our first day there and the falls were all so beautiful. You'll miss it if you don't get out on a boat or kayak. They had those for rent as well!

Since we were only there for one night, and truly needed some downtime we chose not to cook and to select-in to the crudité option + wine and home-made breakfast burritos to warm on the fire for the morning. One night is not enough btw, staying a couple of nights would be ideal so you have time to fully unwind, grab some time on the rental kayaks and enjoy the stars that we rarely get to see in the city. All of our interactions were socially distanced, masks are worn indoors, and the bathroom spaces were kept very clean for camper safety. Thanks for having us Horse Shoe Bend Marina!

My husband and I spent a weekend at the lodge at Fall Creek Falls in mid May. Despite some rain…read more(not in anyone's control). it was a great trip. The location is great. The lodge sits right inside the park, so you don't even have to drive to reach some of the hiking trails. You just walk out and start exploring. The restaurant was a huge benefit and good. Lodge restaurants can be hit or miss, but this one was solid. Breakfast was a basic continental spread, similar to a SpringHill Suites or Hampton Inn. Dinner was better. They brought hush puppies as bread service, and they were delicious. We had an excellent bacon burger and I ordered the grilled shrimp skewers. Shrimp was well cooked, juicy and seasoned well. The rooms were comfortable and modern. Provides a mini fridge and coffee service in the room. We had a balcony overlooking the water, which was one of my favorite parts of the stay. There's also a nice fire pit area outside the lodge for lounging in the evenings. Plenty of seating and group gathering space across the lobby. I'd highly recommend this place. We'll be back. It's only a few hours from Nashville, so it's an easy trip to plan.

I went online and the rooms looked adequate and best of all - it was a short drive to the wedding site. The wedding was on Sat so we booked a room for Fri and Sat nights at $110 a night ($220 total). We knew that the temps in the TN mountains had turned very cold (late Sept) so we weren't surprised to find a temperature of 51and dropping rapidly at 9:30 PM upon our arrival. No one lives on the premises so we had to wait until someone came to let us in. We noticed immediately that it was very cold inside the house but another 5 min to get Starling to acknowledge that they 'would not' turn the heat on for only one room. They apparently also do not have central air as we only saw a window a/c unit. All the comforts of home - not! We are still dealing with a credit card dispute as they refuse to refund our $220 even though we left there 5 min after arriving and drove to Dayton TN where we stayed at a Best Western for the same price - and we had heat (a reverse cycle so a/c when needed in the summer). The owners of White Wagon focus more on money than customer relations.
