Old Creek Lodge

We were only in Gaitlinburg for one night. But it was a great affordable hotel. The rooms were clean. The office staff was nice. It was located close to the things we wanted to see and do. It’s not fancy but nice big rooms. Our room had a great view of the creek behind us with a balcony you could sit on. I would stay here again and recommend it to anyone.

We came for 5 days and it was better than expected! Great price, spacious room, and comfortable bed. Area is very close to everything downtown, but since it's on the back road, it is very quiet. It was lovely to hear the river and view the mountains! The breakfast was mostly cold, but there were plenty of options, including some tasty sandwiches, which you could heat up. Always coffee and tea available, and in the afternoon, they put out lemonade and cookies! Being within walking distance of everything is a major convenience! Saved so much on parking fees. Staff are all very friendly and helpful! We would definitely come back!

Absolutely amazing experience. We felt so welcomed from the moment we arrived. Everyone at the front desk was amazingly wonderful. One night we ran out to get dish soap, we were heating food in the room and needed to rinse our dishes, and when we mentioned it to the ladies at the front desk, they immediately looked concerned and offered us some from their breakfast kitchen. The rooms are really cute, may not be everyone's taste but I loved how they tried to theme it like a log cabin. It was really nice to sit out on the balcony and listen to the water and eat breakfast. The daily lemonade and cookies were a really nice touch. I didn't take part in the breakfast, as I have dietary restrictions, but my partner seemed to make it work. Pretty decent but basic continental breakfast, from what I could see. Overall this was an amazing experience for our first time in Gatlinburg with the added bonus that everything you want and need is within walking distance.

This lodge is fantastic. The location is tucked away from all the touristy chaos and made it easy to get to and from without getting stuck in Gatlinburg traffic. Not to mention you can easily walk to the trailhead into the park, or get downtown. The creek sounds so nice and it's a great view of the mountains. Breakfast available is better than most hotels and offers a good variety, and they put out lemonade and cookies from 2p on + they keep coffees brewed at all times. I loved the fireplace and balcony in the room, checking in & out was an absolute breeze, and housekeeping is great. I think my only real complaint is that there's only 1 elevator and sometimes it feels like forever to use. Overall I'd absolutely stay here again when we come out next. It's such a gem.

I been coming here twice a year for 5 years staying a week at a time. I have always ask for a certain room and been giving it. I request the rooms this time and was told they would reserve them but was given one of the worse rooms there. And wasn't even told they were sorry for the inconvenience. I want stay here anymore. Apparently my 5 years of loyalty means nothing to them.
