Carr's Northside Hotel and Cottages

The cottage was very nice we had a view overlooking the back patio, there was a stream of water to fish and enjoy sitting by the campfire or grilling on the grill. We had a hot tub in our room which was very relaxing.

The room was beautiful and felt very spacious with the high ceiling. I appreciated the ramp instead of stairs to get to our floor…made lugging suitcases so much easier. Also, being able to open our windows at night (because there were screens) and listen to the sound of the river below us was so peaceful and lulled us to sleep. Since we were on the third floor we had no fear of bears trying to get in our room thru the balcony screens. We were able to easily walk to Gatlinburg from the hotel but didn’t hear the hustle and bustle while trying to sleep which was a plus. Coming back to the pool and hot tub after a day in the mountains or in town was a definite plus as well, you didn’t feel like you were on display like so many of the other pools in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge because this one is tucked in the back instead of roadside.

Amazing location. Fabulous launch pad for hiking in the smokies. It was awesome to have a kitchen, hot tub, and laundry facilities. The staff was very responsive. It was a great value for the money and exactly what we needed. We would stay again in a heartbeat.

The location was great! We walked to downtown Gatlinburg several days/nights without having to pay for parking! The room was very clean! We had a beautiful view of the river off of our balcony! We sit on our balcony relaxing and listening to the river flow with the beautiful lights above it shining on it! They supplied fire wood for the fire pits in the back by the river with seating! It was lite up with lightning. We saw 7 or 8 Black Bears from our Balcony! It was overall Amazing! This will be our Home Away From Home in Gatlinburg from now on! The pricing was very affordable and fair! The staff were all amazing people!

Loved the setting, right beside a river. The bed was super comfortable. The shower had been updated and was very nice. Liked that it had a refrigerator and a microwave, we used both. Had a patio outside our room overlooking the river with a table and two bouncing chairs. We sat here often. In fact, we were sitting there when a black bear paid a visit. It was a really cool (also a bit nerve-wracking) sight to see. Terry and Larry were awesome, very gracious hosts. We enjoyed chatting with them. Overall, it's a pretty good value for the price.
