"The entire place was being remodeled, there were old appliances and furniture sitting everywhere. Parking spaces were blocked with trash bins and pallets. Wasn’t very pleased. Would have liked to know before booking"

Best Western Cades Cove Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was efficient and helpful. They no longer have coffee in the room but is available in their common area until 10:00 p.m. The hotel has ample parking and located within a few miles of the National Park."

Fontana Village Resort

10/10 Excellent

"For Tail of the Dragon visitors this is the place to stay. Fuel at entrance, food, gift store, parking for truck and trailer. Pool closes early in the season. TV system they have is terrible- never got it working once- in days! NO cell service Zip! Must use resort Wi-Fi only. Staff is Fantastic!!!"
