We'd stay here again!

I stayed at The Inn on the River for my son's wedding in Pigeon Forge at the end of January. We asked for an upgrade to the river side and the front desk was very accommodating. Brandon, in particular, was incredibly helpful when I needed the "mother of the groom" speech printed. (The "business center" was pretty ineffective with an ancient computer, so Brandon helped!) Every staff member we encountered was super helpful and very professional. It is right on the main street and close to so much. If we were ever to go back to Pigeon Forge, we would stay here!
