Top Metcalf Bottoms Picnic Area Hotel Reviews

Townsend Gateway Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, nice employees. We really enjoyed our stay"

The Parkman - Great Smoky Mountains

8/10 Good

"We had a great stay at The Parkman in charming Townsend. We came to explore Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and after spending earlier in the week in Sevierville/Pigeon Forge, we much preferred Townsend's "Peaceful Side." The hotel was a great base for exploring Cades Cove — just note it's a bit of a drive to sites like Alum Cave, Kuwohi, and Newfound Gap. Still, the town itself is a nice change of pace from the busier Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area. One thing worth mentioning: we had requested a second-floor room, but that request wasn't honored. This was disappointing since we'd paid extra for a room with a "balcony" - but because we ended up on the ground floor, it was really more of a patio. Clearer wording around what that upgrade actually includes would be helpful. We also noticed a lot of motorcycle traffic during our stay, which comes with the territory in this area but isn't ideal when you're hoping for a peaceful visit. We're a small family and had requested a quiet room, but we were placed near the back of the property, right by the motorcyclists passing through. Since the property clearly had vacancies elsewhere, it would have been nice if guests weren't all grouped together in that section. That said, we were only there for one night, had a pleasant stay overall, and would consider returning - with a request to be placed away from the motorcycle traffic next time."

Luxurious 5-bedroom cabin with spectacular mountain views in a private community

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay. Amazing cabin for kids"

Smoky Mountain Cabin Getaway with Indoor Pool, Sports Court, Theater & Fire Pit

10/10 Excellent

"The house was everything we thought it would be and more. Lots of space, very clean, beautiful views, comfortable furniture. One of the best vrbo's we have ever stayed at! Host was great and check-in process couldn't have been easier."

Mountain Vacation Time! 2 miles to GSMNP@ Line Springs~Hot Tub~Games~2 Decks

10/10 Excellent

"Can I rate higher than excellent!?!! This beautiful home was home to us for several days. Are activities were spread all over the area-so this cabin was perfectly centrally located. I wish we had shad more time!"

NEW! Snuggle Bear Cabin in the Heart of the Smokies!

8/10 Good

"Cabin was good but not excellent. Just little minor things here and there that just seem to aggravate you like ceiling fan in living room not working. Shower in bedroom didn’t work well just a small stream comes out. You have to climb stairs from bedroom to upstairs bathroom to take a shower. Minor issues you can live with just aggravating. Cleaning crew could pay better attention to stuff. Dishes left in washer dead bugs in drawers of cabinet towels left in dryer. But once again minor issue. But overall cabin was very pleasant. Getting in was a little hassle as you have to share a driveway with another cabin and not a lot of room to turn around once you get there. Whoever was cleaning the other cabin had parked their car in the driveway and you couldn’t get by. Took thirty minutes to get them to move. Extremely aggravating! Never did find that lake and pool that the ad shows in the pics. I don’t believe it exists. Everything was stocked well including the kitchen and hot tub was clean. Bed was also nice. Bears are all over and more than likely you’ll see some. We were on the deck and they come off the hill behind the cabin and walked on down the hill the cabin overlooks. We were probably 20 yards from them and this was in the evening around four thirty So pay attention. Overall had a good stay and might rent it again in the future. Wears Valley is a little more peaceful than Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg and I think that’s what we enjoyed the most."

LUXURY NEW CONSTRUCTION! Mountain Horizon–Pool, Spa, Sports Court, Golf, Views

10/10 Excellent

"We have stayed in many luxury rentals, and this was one of our favorites! The layout with each bedroom having an en suite, the pickleball court with a great hard surface, the grand indoor pool, and huge hot tub along with breathtaking views from the deck every single day were all fantastic. We had a group of 8 adults who all play pickleball, and we stayed for a week. Great local attractions too. It doesn’t get much better than this! Thank you!"
