Ellis A. | Dec 2024
We loved the Chetola Resort and all the amenities. The condo was very comfortable and had plenty of room for our crew.
Sharon M. | Dec 2024
My third visit. My favorite home to stay when I’m in the Smokies. Amazing and very historic home on the river. Very spacious and well appointed. Spotlessly clean.
