Sasquatch's Den with hot water
Everything you need! Great location spitting distance to a stream. The stream was strong during our stay and we had a fire right next to it. The sounds were beautiful. Awesome local restaurants nearby and a easy drive to Gatlinburg. Big river near by to go kayak or canoe. There is also an apple orchard where you can eat a good meal and buy apple cider. I got 7 large bottles. Make sure you bring blankets during the cold season

Sasquatch's Den with hot water
Our stay was great! Ginnie was very attentive and everyone we met was kind and helpful. I would note that the top bunk has a weight limit, so if you are 3 adults traveling it may be a tight squeeze, but we made it work! The creek is beautiful and the proximity to the National Park is excellent. I would happily stay here again.

REEL it Inn, rustic cottage
Hidden Gem
What we loved-
Jay- The on-site hosts were VERY friendly and kind. Just like having Grandpa near by if you needed anything
Clean- Very clean cabin, very clean bathhouse, well maintained property!
Shared accommodations- The shared outside kitchen place was massive, it overlooked the river and waterfall. Photos do not do it justice! 1000/10
River/Waterfall Combo- Weather and water temp was perfect when we went. Very clean and no critters around to scare us as we waded around!
Quiet- Area for me was quiet, we slept soundly
Safe- We always felt safe to leave items and walk around at night
Bathhouse- 10/10 THANK YOU for having a nice shower, toilet and sink
Cons- Hot Tub is only for the bigger cabins (No available for us to use), I found that disappointing as it was in the shared space and I just assumed we could use it when booking)
Some advice- do keep opened food in your car, just like any camping spot, you will wake up to a few surprises in your chips if you dont.
Will book again- this would make for a great family reunion, bachelor party spot!

REEL it Inn, rustic cottage
Not great
The camp was as cute in person as the pictures on line.
Who wakes up without coffee? Not me, so that was a slight issue. The bigger problems are: 1) they falsely (Friendship Falls) advertise as pet friendly but Reel It Inn refuses pets, only discovered once a further reservation was made, and paid for. 2) no mention that camp sits 100 yards off a major road, so all we heard all night was traffic noise. 3) The beds are hard as rocks.

Great location for us. We enjoyed our stay. The bathroom is very tight. If you are a larger person, you may not be comfortable.
