Great property, clean rooms, close easy walking distance to the main Gatlinburg strip. The water park feature was a hit, although it is quite “splashy” and hard to avoid getting water poured on you going down any of the slides— so if your kids don’t enjoy being splashed, they may be hesitant. There is no hot tub, but a small-medium sized indoor pool. It was comfortable to swim in but on the lower temp end of heated pools. We only had two negative components to our stay: 1) The shower temperature wasn’t as warm as we’d prefer. I like hot showers, so perhaps it was just me, but my spouse and I agreed we wished they had their water heater turned up just a couple more degrees. The shower was fine, but I got out feeling a just a little chilly rather than warm. 2) We forgot an item in the room. Called within a couple hours of leaving as we were still in the area, and nothing had been turned in. Went back the next morning to check again and still nothing turned in. So we were a little bummed that someone from the cleaning staff decided to keep it instead of turn it on, it left a little bit of a sour taste in our mouth. Overall a good stay though, one bad apple doesn’t spoil the bunch. The proximity to the strip and having the water park area for kids is what sold us.
