Room
Our room was a presidential suite facing the golf course.  On the fifth floor we had excellent views of the surrounding valley and golf course.  Being a Presidential suite all the upgrades are there.  We had a two bedroom with a king bed in one and two queens in the other.  Both bedrooms had their own adjoining bath with granite counter tops.  Full shower and separate Jacuzzi tub in the master and a shower/tub combo in the guest bath.  Both bathrooms had double sinks and plenty of room.  The kitchen was full sized with stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops.  The room came with a living room furnished with a full couch and comfy chair.  Flat screen TV’s in both bedrooms and one in the living room.  The fireplace in the living room is a great touch.

Grounds

On the ground floor facing the course sits a gas fire pit with comfortable chairs to sit in.  One of the big draws is the onsite waterparks, three of them to be exact.  One indoor park and two outdoor parks for guests to use.  Our room came with access to the waterparks, but they also sell tickets to the parks suggesting that not all rooms come with free waterpark access.  These waterparks are not the full sized ones you might see at standalone sites, but they’re not steps from your room which is very convenient.  If the waterparks are not enough there is also a large arcade for kids.  All this adds up to lots of families, which can be noisy, having a room away from the water park on the golf course is a quieter option. 

Town

Sevierville runs into Pigeon Forge, both are on the touristy side, which makes this hotel’s location off the main road great.  If you like the tourist traps, mini golf courses, and cheap souvenir shops you won’t have to travel far.  But the best attraction for us is the Smokey Mountains.  The mountains offer endless hikes with waterfalls and creaks around every bend.  Check out the historical sites in the National park 20 minutes from the hotel (Cades Cove).

Tips:

Get a room near the golf course if you want a quiet stay.

While the presentation does only take 10 – 15 minutes, leaving right after that is not easy.
