We had a creek view it was so nice. The staff were very nice and helpful. Everything was clean and you can walk down or get a ride into Gatlinburg. Enjoyed our stay for our Anniversary:)
Trolley stop right in front was nice and nice indoor pool. The room was kind of noisy, but it was probably because of the room they gave me was on the other side of the wall from the ice machine that everybody was at all hours of the night.
April and Aubrey were so very helpful getting us hooked up with information, a coffee filter and parking pass to hike the next day. Get a room by the brook and sit out on the balcony to hear the water. Best nights sleep I had all week during our travels.

I needed a place for one night. The staff was extreamly helpful and thorough going through the check in process.
My room was clean and the bed was comfortable . The bathroom had the amenities I would expect.
The checkout process was fast and easy, and the staff was helpful as usual.
I would stay here again for a one night stay.
Great place to stay, great restaurant on site. The property was off the main drag.

Overall, we had a pleasant stay at Sidney James Mountain Lodge. We came for hiking and we didn't have the opportunity to use the indoor pool, but it looked great. The room was clean and spacious. There was plenty of parking.
The only issue we had was that the electrical outlets worked only intermittently and one didn't work at all. When we tried to plug something into a few of the outlets, the connection was so loose that the plug would fall out of the outlet.
