Norris Dam State Park

Near a lot of places

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.

Hotel is off the main drag so quieter. Great pool, free breakfast was above typical but long lines. Nice dining area. Room was remodeled so was nice.
