    We made the right choice to stay at Carr’s Cottages. It was perfect! Clean, quiet, professional, helpful. We’d stay there again without hesitation.

    Great room near downtown area.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    The cottage was perfect, clean and had all we needed. We especially loved the balcony deck with the brook running by. We were content just sitting there and listening to the brook and if course the bear came through that way everyday and it was cool seeing him. We knew not to feed him but he liked us talking to him quietly and posed for a couple pics.

    The room was spacious. Nice balcony with view of river. Bears are frequently seen on property. Plenty of parking. Very close to the town and National park.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    It was secluded for the most part. It was a way from everybody which was a perk. The outside upkeep was a little overgrown. There were multiple plants growing inside the cabin. It was a little out dated and could use a good cleaning.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    The ceiling needs repaired, the tub facet needed fixed. The toliet was loose, my husband tightened it. The sink facet dripped all the time. The grounds needed weeded & cleaned up some. The floor in our room wasn't mopped very well, my socks were dirty

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    The deck was nice and we saw a bear just outside our cabin every day. Exciting. Was disappointed that the hot tub & pool were closed. That was one of the reasons I chose Carr's

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Close to downtown, wonderful view off the balcony, ac works , bed was clean and comfortable. Great TV, good water pressure. Parking out side the door so felt safe. Floors were not mopped, there was a cockroach on the bathroom counter. When they cleaned my room halfway through my stay. They didn’t clean the toilet seat and the floors were dirty

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Rustic setting right on the river All was good

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Facility was good for the price. Very nice location. It was close to everything, but far enough away to be quite. The bed was very comfortable. They need more outlets, especially for electronics.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    The air conditioner was working, so there was a humidifier that was okay. However it was still uncomfortable with the heat.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    It has been very relaxing enjoyable. I love the cottages. I’m down here on vacation. I’m from Kentucky and it was the best part of the summer to come down.In.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Fantastic location No breakfast

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Motel was out of the high traffic of Gatlinburg, but still close enough to walk to attractions and restaurants. The creek was wonderful. Beds were so comfy.
