Picturesque little valley campsite, right by the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (and Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge tourist options). Clean and cozy tent cabins, wonderful staff that were very friendly and welcoming. We had a great time, it was the perfect home base to explore the Smokies and get outdoors and unplug.

We had the best experience at Under canvas in smokies. Staff was so friendly and helped us with planning our day and excursions. Special mention of Thomas, Christine, Phil and Sydney. Food was great and tasty. We are vegetarians and they had lots of options. In the evening we sat around the fire with other guests who we had never met before but after 2 hrs of chatting and enjoying s’mores learned so much about them and it opens your perspective to life. Highly recommend it

We had an amazing stay here with our 4 year old daughter. It was really nice to disconnect and spend quality time together playing games, coloring, roasting smores and just enjoying the time outdoors. The staff was incredible!! Big shout out to them! So friendly and accomodating. Our tent was immaculate, with a very comfortable bed. Its the perfect amount of “roughing it” with young kids. We have stayed at Under Canvas before out west and we will continue to make memories at them, we are never disappointed. What especially impressed us this time around was the food and drinks at this location. It was hard finding some good quality local fresh food in the touristy surrounding area but Under Canvas really came through for us. We had really really great nourishing meals throughout our stay, so worth it to eat there! Appreciated a rice bowl with some fresh veggies and shrimp tacos! Their chardonnay by the glass was also great— really nice to watch the stars come out while enjoying a glass every evening. You get to connect with nature in the best way while also pampering yourself here. We truly loved our stay

We had such a GREAT time at Under Canvas in TN. The staff is amazing and the environment so comfortable and inclusive. We loved our accommodations and fun on-camp activities, and more importantly met really lovely families with whom we connected and will stay in touch.

The kids had a blast meeting and playing with the other families. It rained a bit, but the tents stayed dry and staff worked hard to dry the outside areas and restart the outdoor fires when weather permitted.

This was one of my most memorable stays ever! This was a girls trip and all of us loved it, even those that arent "outdoorsy"! The staff was more than accommodating even to the point of starting a fire for us ahead of time so our tent would be warm when we came back from an excursion. The staff are available in the lobby for 24 hours. The tents do not have outlets but there are usb ports to charge your phones. There was no service in our tent but i did receive some service in the "lobby" tent. Another great thing the staff does is they have an area of maps and brochures and the staff are there to answer questions and offer suggestions on excursions: places to go, hikes to take, things to see and places to eat. BUT do not skip a meal at the small quick order "restaurant" in the welcome tent. I recomend trying at least one brealfast and one dinner. The food was way above any camp meal i habe ever had...it was amazing! The avocado toast on sourdough with microgreens and smoked salmon....out of this world!! The bathrooms were super clean. There are towels available, and even small heaters in each of the bathrooms. There is a hairdryer in the towel closet if you need one. The bathrooms are private individual bathrooms with a toilet and shower whch makes it nice to have a private, clean area to get ready in. The tents have a fireplace for those cool nights and it heats those tents up wonderfully. The staff restock your firewood and starters each day. Wish i could fit more!
The lobby has games and books and plenty of places to relax. There is also beautiful outdoor seating for smores and gathering including some nightly singings.
The avocado toast with microgreens and smoked salmon (there are several choices for protein)

4/10 Fair

Thought I'd try something different. The concept is unique, but the actual tent is a little spartan for my taste. I don't care about living out of the suitcase with no place to hang cloths up. No cell phone signal or internet but they at least tell you that. Pretty costly for what is offered. Just not my cup of tea but others may enjoy the lifestyle and being so remote. The staff was terrific, and the public shower area was clean and pleasant. The kitchen and dining looked nice but I didn't dine there. I hadn't been to Gatlinburg area for many years, and it is a real tourist trap now. I won't be back.

Disappointing stay.

This place calls itself a small luxury hotel. No luxury here. We had a suite - the amenities/furniture on the website are not what you get. No daily housekeeping. Apparently, it's available at the guests' requests, but no-one informed us of that. Room seemed dirty and we even wondered if the sheets were fresh at arrival. The staff is clueless in terms of service. No internet so you have to ask for advice, but most have no knowledge of local area. Restaurant is basic. No eco-water bottles. The drive is 30 mins to the national park and not much to do at the property. It could be wonderful with a caring, knowledgeable staff, internet at least in the common area so that one can plan activities outside of the camp, having a yoga instructor or hiking guide on site, better restaurant offerings. At a minimum, each room should have a map of the national park and a handbook of what is available to do in the Smoky Mountains since there is no internet available. I could go on. Very disappointing.
