The room was excellent, spotless and in great repair. The only thing missing was a shower curtain that was not required, due to having a large soaking tub with beautiful views of a rolling creek. The on-site Heirloom Restaurant was fantastic and included a full bar with our favorites. The staff were all very friendly and informative. The best was yet to come, the next morning, we enjoyed the free menu ordered breakfast. We will definitely be returning in the future. Thank you all for the best time in Gatlinburg.
