The staff said there was a leak in the bathroom they couldn’t fix yet. No problem. This leak was the water on full from the bathtub. ALL. NIGHT. LONG. They said if it’s too loud out a towel under the door. Really?? That’s the solution?? I left before the sun was up

We loved our stay at BW Cades Cove. Andre welcomed us warmly and with a delightful sense of humor, answering all of my questions. His colleague, later on (after 9 pm) offered to come to our room to investigate why we weren’t getting most of the cable channels listed. The room was clean, spacious, with a little table and chairs in the corner. Bed was comfortable and our dog enjoyed the room and the large field just in the other side of the parking lot. We were able to park next to our room. I took a call on the rocking chair outside my room and moved into the lobby at 9 pm when it got too buggy. Staff asked if I needed any assistance. We slept through breakfast, but, I was able to get some tea and a granola bar to go. So near the park! Great place! Great staff! Will return someday! Thanks!

Handyman needed
We checked in and were given a handicapped room...no idea why. The bed was extremely high so luckily we are about average in height. There were some maintenance issues that were beyond annoying. The A/C until rattled and made obnoxious noises. The tub faucet would not shut off and literally ran a steady stream the entire time. The sink had a broken stopper and was just left in the sink. As for the shower, there was only a handheld sprayer with very low water pressure. Remember I mentioned we are both average in height, the sprayer was positioned in the corner of the shower and hit us about eye level. The bed wasnt terrible. The breakfast was decent.

Amazing Stay
The staff and the room was great. I was greeted like I was family from the moment I checked my family into the Inn. The customer service of the staff was impeccable, yhe rooms were very nice and super clean. It was a quiet and peaceful stay. The breakfast the next day was at least a 2 star. Our overall experience was a 5+ star

We really enjoyed our stay here! It was very quiet, clean and comfortable. Most of the staff were amazing, very nice and friendly. There was one woman that was very rude, I had 2 encounters with her on 2 different days and both times she was extremely rude. The only negative was that the pool was out of order.
