Best Western Plus River Escape Inn & Suites
No fault of hotel, but during week days there are constant noisy large dump trucks going to and from a near-by rock quarry during normal working hours across the river.

Riverfront Cabin, Mountain Views, Fishing, and Hiking!
The host was most receptive and quick to answer all the questions I had. The cabin is right on the river with the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad track straight across. It's peaceful and scenic. The cabin is small and warm. I felt welcomed and hope to visit again!
