Our stay at the lodge was a lovely escape; the location is perfect for getting to downtown Gatlinburg while providing a peaceful retreat by the creek. The room was spacious and nicely decorated, with a cozy cabin feel. However, there were some issues such as a slightly dark atmosphere and noise from the creek at night. Overall, it was a great deal given the price and the amenities offered.
