    Great video, as usual, Bobbie and John. Some of the decorations reminded me of my grandparents' home. Very nice hotel. Thanks again, J and B!!👍🏻💜

    Thanks for the review! I really like it has a retro vibe with modern things mixed in! How cool is that? Glad you two had a good stay! Summer time would be awesome to stay there to relax! I agree, a discounted rate would be a winner to go back for a stay.

    I love the way back hotel!!!! All the retro colors. The comfortable seating. The beautiful rooms. Love the lighting in the bathroom. Large makeup mirror design for the main mirror! Then you have a makeup mirror. A steamer plus a hairdryer very nice. The pool was a great size! Seventies had a deeper end with a diving board!!! Love the mobile resteraunt outside to serve drinks and food!!! The light show on the lamps the big huge round ball shapes in the pool. I think the whole family would really like this Hotel!!!!

    What a COOL hotel!!! You know that an adult only swim time is GREAT because there aren’t any other hotels that offer that!! Sorry kiddos, but not sorry!! 🤪. I’m sad you couldn’t see the other colored lights around the pool, but I think it was better because it showcased the multi- colored heat lamps of which I had never seen!!! Groovy Man!!! Ha. Glad you enjoyed your stay and maybe next time if you return, you could stay in a different room to show us what that one looks like!! 💕💕

    This is a great review. I herd about this hotel and it looks really awesome. I hope to see you guys review the courtyard by Marriott in pigeon forge soon. I herd IHOP has a new menu for the Wonka movie. I hope you guys review it soon too. Is the pool area always 21 and up after 5pm or just during the winter? It looks like a great place to stay especially if you want to be close to the island without staying at one of the Margaritaville hotels but no kids in the pool after 5pm seems a little odd for a family tourist area.

    It looks like to me the goal of the people that own and possibly the people that are running that place is to make Pigeon Forge a sin whole like most of Las Vegas etc. They don’t need that at Pigeon Forge it’s for families and it’s not for alcohol and sex parties. If that hotel were meant for families and good clean fun they wouldn’t be closing the pool off at 5 PM and limiting the type of people and the age group of people that can go into it. If I’m gonna pay for a hotel in Pigeon Forge I wanna be able to get in a pool anytime I want to as long as it’s open. I don’t want special groups being allowed to get into a pool that I’m paying for and I would want to enjoy with my family. And those of us who do not drink alcohol would not be comfortable having to share that pool area with the party crowd, and that’s what that guy called it, he said it’s gonna be a party, so obviously that’s what they’re planning. I’m glad you told people about it. This way I know who not to give my business to.
