Great location and a very nice updated room for an old building. Our room was clean and comfortable. Gave it a 4 because of road noise when sitting on our private balcony, also loud ac when siting on balcony while trying to enjoy the lovely view of the Tennessee River.

Loved the room, didn’t feel like a typical hotel. Quaint! Weather and time didn’t permit us to use the hot tub or fire pit. Really just a cute place to stay with a great view, wouldn’t book for the amenities which was fine with me.

The lodge had been remodeled and the work was great. Still in the process of renovating. Bed was extremely soft and not to our liking. No comfortable chair of any kind in the room. Had to lay in bed to watch tv. Balcony was great with 2 rockers. Biggest problem we were on the mountain and no food of any kind. We would have carried food if we had known that we had to drive the curvy road up and down the mountain. Did not even have bottle water. But it was very quiet and fine for one night.

Perfect couples get away. The rooms are private, clean, and beautifully decorated. The views are unbelievable and the hot tub/pool were perfect! The cottages look like a Tuscany retreat with perfect landscaping and peaceful surroundings. It is obviously right off the highway so some traffic noise but it didn’t bother us a bit. Will return!
