    Main tent/restaurant/lobby interior. Order food at that desk, or check in.

    Glamping in the Smokies and remote fine dining has arrived! We found this local glam camp while looking at some other locations for vacation. We hopped into the car and headed over to have some dinner with them during their soft open. We had a delicious vegetable rich meal, and toured the yurt like platform tents. My child ate the asparagus. It was a pretty hip environment. We took a gravel road to get there, but it will be paved by the spring 2019 open. This unique place of respite is worth checking out. *They are closed for the winter, and will reopen in the Spring.

    The best sleep I've had in years surrounded by beautiful Mother Nature herself. This place was beyond what I expected, my husband, son and I enjoyed the outdoor games, complimentary s'mores, delicious food, and friendly staff. We will definitely be back.

    I would suggest showering in the communal showers as it has heaters and is much warmer than the tent.

Upon our arrival we were greeted by friendly staff that helped us check in and arranged to have our baggage taken up to our room. They do offer valet parking and complementary self parking. They have an indoor pool, outdoor pool, fire pits, arcade, gym, spa, and even complementary s'mores in the evening. The service and staff were all wonderful! You get free preferred parking at Dollywood and timesavers for everyone in your party. 5/5 Star experience - we will 100% stay here next time we are in the area.

The resort is in the mountains, a few minutes from Dollywood. It's clean and rustic but elegant - think Dolly Parton's style and touch. It's family oriented so it's cozy, not really flashy. I bet during the holidays (now) placed is decked out. Kudos to the staff. From checking in, to dining all the way the family activities (smores), everyone was friendly, helpful and genuinely warm making people feel welcome. Service wasn't feigned or scripted - it was real and even when it was busy, the staff took care of business. Room was comfortable and clean. Not extravagant - think Southern charm. Bathroom wasn't cramped, water pressure good and temperature nice and hot. Quiet (we had a corner room) and we couldn't hear anything. Not even when neighbors opening or closing their door. Even had a workspace if you were working while you were supposed to be on vacation. Amenities included shuttle to and from the park. Pool and Spa (didn't partake). Went to the bar/restaurant - see other review and an on site convenience store. Free parking. I'm sure there are more but that's just all that comes to mind because we were for the park. That's also in another review. Anyway - to sum it up, it's not quite a luxury resort - but a place that offers heartfelt comfort wrapped in Southern Hospitality. If you know Dolly's story, it kinda captures her spirit - warm, sincere and touches of joy. It's a definite "yes" if I needed to pick a place to stay when back in that area, even if I weren't going to the park.

This was…read morewhere we spent our honeymoon (well Gburg actually - in an old run down cabin that wasn't theirs). I don't even know if this place was around then. That was 41 years ago but we spent time up here for our 40th anniversary this year - using them exclusively since we found them about 20 years ago. I think the ownership went thru change since we've been coming here but we exclusively and use them at least 3-4 times a year. Their special for last minute trips is incredible. After 20 years, 3-4 times a year (so we've stayed in most of them), each one has always been clean as a whistle. We have figured that we have stayed with them over 60 trips. At least. We've never stayed with anyone else the past 20 years! Our favorite place is at the top of the mountain at the water tower. However three of the four we always stayed at and liked the best, all but one was burned down in the Gatlinburg Fire of 2016. It burned down to their concrete footprint. They finally got one of them rebuilt and just opened back up so we are leaving Friday to go there. It's at the very top of the mountain and you can see for miles and miles. Yet it is only 5 min from the Parkway, behind Dollywood. You would think a cabin on the to of the mountain with its incredible view would be miles from the Parkway but it's only a short 5-8 minutes. I can never praise their staff enough. They are awesome people to work with. Some of our favorite restaurants we never miss are the Applewood for bfast, Guy Fieri's restaurant and arcade ( this is awesome and relatively new and great to go because there is a Crumbl and Ice Cream shop next door that are for that sweet tooth we always seem to get worse up there), Chop House, Cherokee Grill (Gburg), Ogles Farmers Kitchen ( I think this is the name. It right close to going in for Applewood. We've just recently found this and have been multiple times), The Pottery Barn Cafe is usually our first place we hit coming into town. There is also Paula Deens, Chop House, and Johnny Carino's. This is just for starters. Stay here and you won't regret it!!!

    First off, my husbands mistake but this was a time share weekend so the hotel was basically free…read morebut it makes me wonder if time share rooms are typically awful or this was just our luck. Got there around 10:00 and the room was ready. Great! Got to room and it was pretty small and filthy (table had crumbs/sticky, not vacuumed etc). Went back to the front desk and she offered to switch to same room for no charge or upgrade to a slightly bigger room for $20/night. We opted for that option since as a family of four, more space is worth the cost for us. We got to that room and again, not the cleanest and there was pubic hairs on the bathroom floor which basically sealed the deal mentally nothing good would happen. Because this was a timeshare offer we called them and finally after we left and had lunch they just put us in another room. They did refund the $60 and gave us three breakfast vouchers for each day but even this room was not clean to what "Hilton" standards should be even though the manager walked through the room personally. In the end, this made it very easy to say no to the timeshare presentation as their excuse was Hilton bought the property just a year ago so they aren't all up to standard yet. The lobby was beautiful, the pool area looked nice but my kids said the water was freezing. I would never pay for the $17 dollar breakfast as it's basically the same free stuff you get at every other hot continental breakfast. Basically, you couldn't pay me to stay here again.

Cleaning staff did a good job. Parking is right out front which worked out well. Walking distance to the craziness on the main drag in Pigeon Forge. They have a nice gym on the first floor. Outdoor area to sit and talk. Didn't use the pool but it looked nice. We did not do the breakfast, but it looked good. Plenty of seating. I would recommend.

Staff was super friendly and helpful. Every interaction was genuinely friendly, fun, and welcoming. The rooms are a good size with an indoor fireplace that adds a nice touch and large bathrooms. They have outdoor balconies overlooking the shopping area or river - which was great for seeing nature (geese, beavers, herons). Facilities are nice with a good sized gym and large rooftop pool and hot tub overlooking the Ferris wheel. The roof has plenty of lounge chairs and the chill bar with great staff that will bring your orders (food included) to your chair. The hotel is pet-friendly and has an indoor fireplace-house restaurant and bar (Fins) with an outdoor patio. It also has an onsite Starbucks. While pricey, the amenities, room size, great staff, and location made it worth it! We've already started talking about our next visit!

    Head to Gatlinburg and stay at the Margaritaville Resort…read more This hotel has seen better days. We had a basic room with two queens overlooking the creek. The bathroom had a vent with tons of rust, the paint was chipped all over the walls. Beat up and scuffed furniture. The patios were sad and depressing. The patio door was broken and did not lock. The view is "sad creek with creepy parking lot." The hotel also gives a complimentary margarita coupon to guests. We do not drink alcohol. When I went to the bar I asked the manager if we could trade it in for a non-alcoholic margarita or NA beer and they said no, only alcoholic margaritas. How ridiculous! Not even a freaking mocktail margarita! After staying at the Gatlinburg resort property this was a huge let down. We have since learned they are two different franchise owners. Suffice to say, we were going to stay two nights. We paid for two and after one night we left and booked a room at the Gatlinburg location instead. That's how bad it was.

We are trying to sell now only because we can no longer make the trip from Pennsylvania. Quiet pleasant resort, with friendly staff, & close to a lot of fun.

Can't list all of the things we dd while we stayed there but the memories are many & great.

    Tree Tops Time…read moreShares remain controversial; we own six annual weeks, and have the tools to dispose of ownership, and this is an advantage. Caveat - always purchase on the Secondary Market; presentations are ok to achieve lay of the land, but Never purchase from a developer. We wisely purchased our first vacation club in 1972, and have enjoyed the annual luxury travel every years since. Sales people will argue the benefit of timeshare exchanges - Interval International is superior to RCI; however, these exchange clubs always involve extra fees. Interval International has taken us to nearly all Marriott Vacation Club properties in the US, and we have exchanged abroad. Marriott Bonvoy is excellent for overseas hotel stays. Caveat: Always purchase in desirable locations that one will visit annually. We currently own four Atlantic Ocean Front Marriott Vacation Club properties and two Mountain properties. And this ownership leaves plenty of spring and fall time for 3-4 weeks of international travel. We always visit Smokies in spring; fall is delightful, but way too many leaf peepers. In 2025, Tree Tops improvements include new carpet and furniture, all important WIFI is now up-to-date, and TV service - Spectrum is great improved. Our Saturday check-in follows in-town dining and includes a pool and hot tub visit. Mountains or beach? Not applicable for us, we do both....
