Travel to Cades Code and the Smoky Mountains

We wanted lodging closer to Cades Cove and the Townsend River Breeze Inn was. It is an older but very quaint establishment. The beds were very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Quiet get away outside GSM National Park.

Quaint classic motel just outside Great Smoky Mountains park. Not fancy, but comfortable and staff was awesome! A very quiet and pleasant alternative to the chaos in Pigeon Forge.
Calvin, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Take Care of the Little Stuff

We like staying at River Breeze, but the water drains slowly when taking a shower. Also the edge of the rug curled up and was a trip hazard.

Was just a one night stop over - perfect for our needs. Quaint & has all you need with old fashioned feel which I prefer over ultra modern chain hotels.

Good motel near Great Smoky Mountains National Par

Quiet, clean, well appointed standard hotel room. Fridge with freezer; microwave; coffee maker. Comfortable beds. Great location for access to Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a really cute motor lodge-style motel in a beautiful area. Some of the amenities feel outdated (bathroom), but the room was very clean. The bed, however, was horribly uncomfortable. Price felt steep but seemed comparable to other lodging nearby.
Anna, 1-night trip

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. The staff was friendly and helpful, and our room was beautifully updated. A super room for the price.
