Beds were clean and very comfortable!! Hot tub was just right, and the pool and hot tub were very clean. The only thing I would have liked a little better would be the water pressure for the shower. It was okay, just could have been a little better. We were on the 3rd floor so may be the reason. It was very quiet, which was great! We will be back for summer!! Loved this property!!

Throughly enjoyed the stay at Appy Lodge. The afternoon snack of Apple cider and cookies really was nice. The quietness of the location was nice. It is still far away enough away to enjoy the serenity of the Great Smoky Mountains.
