Top Cooter’s Place & Museum Hotel Reviews

Margaritaville Island Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, walking distance to many attractions, hotel was clean, and smelled like sunscreen! Couldn’t tell if I was in the smokies or at the beach! 10/10!"

Compass Hotel by Margaritaville

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely AMAZING hotel! From the moment we walked in the doors it felt like our home away from home. Super clean, very friendly staff members, and great amenities! Room was spacious with a gorgeous Mountain View, and the breakfast was delicious every morning, and was included in the price. Lots of options to choose from so everyone was happy. The pools are amazing as well as lazy river and hot tub! We also loved winding down at night around the cozy fire pit. We were super sad to leave and will 100% be back in the near future!"

Econo Lodge Pigeon Forge Riverside

10/10 Excellent

"The property was nice, clean , breakfast was good. The only thing I would like to have seen different is the bathroom bigger with a sink in it and a fan in the bathroom."

Timbers Lodge

8/10 Good

"Nice rooms ac was a little weak didn’t cool room enough"

Country Cascades Waterpark Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We went for a mini “staycation” and had an incredible time. The staff was above and beyond. Great for a family stay."

Arbors at Island Landing Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay. Staff very helpful and friendly. Rooms were clean. Was hard to get into and out of parking lots because not at a traffic light. Within walking distance to several attractions."

The Inn On The River

8/10 Good

"Everything that was promised was delivered. Beautiful scenic little back porch area overlooks the Little Pigeon River, which makes for a nice backdrop considering that part of 441 is lit up like the Vegas Strip. It’s nice to have a space in the middle of all that which still feels away from all that if you want it. Housekeeping came daily, fresh towels and cleaning up. Breakfast is good, could use some fresh fruit and plant-based milk, but that’s not a dealbreaker for us. We enjoyed chatting with fellow travelers of all types and ages, and we’d stay there again if spending a few nights in downtown Pigeon Forge."

Music Road Resort Hotel and Inn

8/10 Good

"Pool was fun for kids. Warm water. Fun slide friendly staff"

The Walden, Trademark Collection By Wyndham

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was great! There is a printer in the business office, it was was very helpful that we didn’t have to go out looking for one"
