Wonderful

The room was clean and updated. The location was great, just off the main strip so it was nice and quiet at night. Breakfast on the weekend. Definitely would return again when visiting Gatlinberg.
We enjoyed the creek behind the motel. Very pretty. Motel staff was nice. The pizza place across the street was yummy. My only complaint would be there were a few ants in the bathroom. Really other than that it was good. We weren’t in our room much.
