Top Shadows of the Past Hiking/Biking Trail Hotel Reviews

The Parkman - Great Smoky Mountains

10/10 Excellent

"Was a nice stay. Breakfast was ok. The owner told us about the updated rooms for our next stay. Would definitely recommend"

Laurel Valley Mountain Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"The room and the views were wonderful. The breakfast was good with a variety of dishes being served over our four day stay. The breakfast staff were very friendly. The walkways around the grounds need some attention as there are some broken light fixtures along the paths. Also, the bathroom in our room was very modern and everything worked fine, but we could have used a towel bar or two to hang our damp towels."

Best Western Cades Cove Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was efficient and helpful. They no longer have coffee in the room but is available in their common area until 10:00 p.m. The hotel has ample parking and located within a few miles of the National Park."

Townsend River Breeze Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Room, lobby and hallways were well kept."

Townsend Gateway Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We had a suite with 2 bedrooms and a living room. It was easy to check in and conveniently located close to Cades Cove. Riverside Restaurant was close by as well and had an excellent breakfast. We will definitely come back! Thank you!"

Creekside 2 Bedroom Cabin by RedAwning

10/10 Excellent

"This place was perfect for our trip. It’s located close to everything the area has to offer. We didn’t have more than a 45 minute drive to get to anything. The place is simple, in a good way. It has everything you need and nothing you don’t. The best part is the back deck over the mountain creek. It was very relaxing to sit out there and listen to the water. We spent most of our time at the cabin enjoying that. The hot tub on the deck was a nice bonus as well. The area is absolutely beautiful and there’s a grocery store and some restaurants 6 minutes away. I would definitely stay there again and would recommend to anyone who wanted to spend time around the Smoky Mountains national park area."
