Marsha Britt

Love it here. try to come every month or 2. My 1, 3, & 5 yr old have a blast! We enjoy it as well ! We stay @ stone hill lodge . less expensive , rooms are great, & the wait for the shuttle isn't bad

Bill Benson

Good of course is expensive but is very tasty. However the free buffet for the kids with adult purchased is wayyyy to overpriced. The water park inside and out and our rooms have always been great.

Susan Bataineh

Everything is great here. I notice it's not as busy on Friday but Saturday it's busier. Such a great time with the family. Pizza here is really good too! Best time ever!

Bill Benson

The water park area is great. The life guards have always been professional from what I've seen. Give the food a pass. You're better off ordering or going off site.

ChrisW0521 @OneFearSports

Great place for the family! The slides are awesome. The wait on the Storm Chaser is a little long but a great slide. The Vortex is a must!! And the food is reasonably priced. Will come back!!

Candace Bacon

Make sure you keep up with hotel towels so you don't get charged. Free fountain drink refills all day. Take advantage of that! The Storm Chaser is awesome. Come mid week in the fall for least crowds.

Teri Carden

Wifi throughout. Reasonably priced food, drinks and concessions. Attentive but not controlling lifeguards. Rooms and bathrooms are clean though the bedspread was iffy. My tweens have had a blast!

Nicole Gant

The best place for a coffee run is Krispy Kreme. Best service and easy to get it out of with heavy traffic.

Angela Morris

I HIGHLY recommend this place! It has everything for an entertaining weekend. Be sure to check out Salamander Springs if you have toddlers! I'm a Wyndham Owner & can book your stay. 31gotogirl@gmail

We have stayed here twice. Once in the winter and once in the summer. Tip if staying winter months stay in the River Lodge , summer months stay at Stone Haven.

Amanda Barnett

This is an awesome place to go with the family or as a couple. Plan on a few days, three water parks and an arcade !

Johnny ???? Rockett

Very impressed with the lifeguards at this resort , especially at the children's pools. They are on their feet and continuously scanning their assigned areas. Vigilant but not interruptive.

Acorn Cabin Rentals near Dollywood

Try the Sevierville Golf club bistro ! Great sandwiches . Split up your stay with an amazing cabin from Acorn cabin rentals!

Janet Sanford

My grand kids had so much fun. Great indoor water park . The rooms very large and comfortable

Brenton Marcom

What an awesome find! Great slides, and play areas for the Littles.

Wild Scotsman

Great time for whole family. Hot tub pool and wave pool are family favorites

Pam Hipius

Plan to be here for several days! There's plenty to do. 3 waterparks and an arcade . Units are very comfy too!

Brad Johnson

The buffet at the Thirsty Miner had a decent selection but was expensive . Go a mile down the road for cheaper dining options. There is a Kroger nearby as well .

Johnny ???? Rockett

***Drinks & food much cheaper at Salamander Springs*** Buy one get one beer on tap 3-6pm for $4!!!

Chris Horton

Check out your room before you get comfortable . Some rooms reek of smoke and fridges were gross. Yes, that's a pic of the freezer.

Bri-Anne Simpson

The waterparks are awesome. I wouldn't recommend eating or drinking at the on-site restaurants or bars . WAY over priced. As are the arcade games and everything else on-site.

Brandy Green

The water parks are great but the service and food quality at stone hill lodge wasHORRENDOUS!!! The bar and grill staff was rude and unprofessional and the bfst buffet was HORRIBLE! Go off campus!

Lisa Lewis

Sign up for emails you can catch great deals! Like buy one night get one free!

Katy Gillis

Walk to the other resort instead of taking the resort bus - you'll get there quicker AND get a mini-workout!

Chip Gwyn

All day free refills of fountain drinks . Alcohol drinks are really expensive . Bring some black electrical tape for all the glowy things in the rooms, I like it dark.

Nicole Gant

Check in early the day of to get your pick of cabanas.

Chay Chinsethagid

We noticed that the lines for the water slides are shorter after lunch .

Primenorman Agency

Had a ball at the Waterpark ...now Noah is ready for games!!!

Chad Hembree

A great property, but overloaded with sales people. Too pushy.

Dana Stanfield-Bayiates

Very clean and safe place for mid-summer water park fun: Water parks are for hotel guests only!

Deanna Tratensek

Two words:don't go.Friendly staff but rather uninformed about the area. Concierge=timeshare sales.Food=chicken fingers & burgers . $$$.Waterpark over billed as great-wasn't. Wannabe Disney falls short .

Wade Stinson

Awesome place to ride water slides and go to High School Camp!

Marcus Myers

Lots of fun. Love the water park . The food is over priced. Pizza hut has good deals and they deliver .

Carson Beard

It is a good hotel

Bridget Fino

Go in together with some friends because the rooms hold Like ten people

Carlos Salazar

The drinks are excellent!!

Steve Chandler

Tons of fun! Kids loved it. Fitness facilities are not great. Food gets old after a day.

Brandy Green

The slides! Esp the pink and yellow.

Angie Wagner

You MUST be 42 inches to ride the water slides . What a joke. After three days of riding the water slides my 4 yr old was turned away, she's 41 inches tall.

Samuel H.

The place is nice, but laid out rather strangely. If you a room that's really far, be prepared to do a lot of walking through a maze of hallways and elevators . Do not order room service . So slow!!!

Brandi Kotsalis

Check in stinks....had to wait 4 1/2 hours for room. But water park is great!

Raven Jackson

The orange slide is better than the green way. Worth the wait!

Wendy Parks

Great place, would rather do in Fall or Winter.

Haley Mathis

A great place for a weekend get a way!

Kevin Rhodes

Food on site was terrible, servers were slow. The water in all the inside water attractions was cold. Air temp of the atrium inside the water park was not warm. Very disappointed.

Sarah R.

Walls are paper thin. Impossible to get a quiet night's rest.

Jacob Alexander

Kids eat free with an adult purchase but just skip this perk and go to McDonalds, you'll be happier and I it's cheaper.

Gena Terry Miller

quick check in...not too much hassle from the wydham sales reps

Brian Ellyson

THE place to go if you love back boobs!

Kim Fuller

The lazy river is great on a hot afternoon!
