The pools with waterslides are a great way to have family fun without spending a ton of money. The location has its pluses and minuses. It is on the corner of Parkway and Veterans, which makes arriving from Sevierville really convenient as you can completely avoid Parkway yet still be right on Parkway. There is a trolly station, several dining options and many shops within walking distance. Literally take a right out of the parking lot and Dollywood is just a short drive down Veterans. However, there is a lot of road noise associated with the proximity to these two major streets. The rooms facing Veterans are particularly noisy. There is no breakfast available, however, breakfast at one of the many pancake houses is part of visiting Pigeon Forge anyway. I have stayed here several times, the rooms are always clean and the staff is always friendly. Will be staying here again!
