9/10 Wonderful! (1,002 reviews)
I chose this unit because it accommodated 6 people. Most of the hotels would make me rent 2 hotel rooms and not have a kitchen or kitchenette. The free parking, full kitchen and washer/dryer in the unit as well as the pool was great. It was close proximity to Dollywood and the strip but the neighborhoods driving on the winding roads were a little scary and not a fan of driving by a landfill drop. The unit was worn. Carpeting terribly worn and floors/baseboards dirty by washer/drier unit and showers. They did provide a good ice maker, toaster, coffee pot and some amenities to get started. Despite the peeling paint on the balcony, I enjoyed being out there watching the kids swim. Good communication was a plus. Overall I’d have to say the stay was decent for a family. Kids loved the pool to cool off in.

Condo was very clean and comfortable! The pool and clubhouse was clean and the kids really enjoyed all the spaces including ping pong table and air hockey. There were 21 of us staying between 3 separate condos and no one had any issues.

The activities for children were excellent! I had to park VERY far away from my room on the weekend. The slides and staff were great! There are no phones in the rooms and no microwaves in the rooms. Their bakery was amazing and their all-you-can-eat breakfast was nice. Overall the place was very fun! We had the balcony room in Building #2. The bathtub was very slippery and the water would build up when taking a shower. There were no phones or microwaves inside the room.
