This was the 3rd time we've stayed here. We moved to Tennessee from Palm Springs, Ca. When we found out that this hotel was inspired by Palm Springs, we had to book it, we love this place, our stay was fantastic, food was wonderful, and the drinks were terrific. The only thing that would make it more amazing would be if it was an adult only destination.

No microwave, no clock of any sort and at check out I wasn't asked if I had a good stay. Won't go back.

Great location on the Main Street in Pigeon Forge. Gloomy rooms due to poor lighting but otherwise well appointed bedrooms with good breakfast options. Small popular pool. Great place to watch the almighty Jeep Invasion cruise the *****.

We stayed for my wife’s 60th. What a joke. The “Presidential” suite is out the back side of the hotel with a great view of a parking lot and dumpsters. The staff takes smoke breaks out side the room so you come back to smoke. Water went out for a day. Hey, maybe let the people paying there know what’s going on before they realize they have no shower. Cable barely worked, had to have maintenance come, hate that. Don’t get fooled by nostalgia, this is motel 6 with less value.

We had a wonderful stay at the Wayback Motel in Pigeon Forge! The motel was spotless, tastefully decorated, and staffed with friendly people who made us feel welcome. The price was very reasonable, and the complimentary breakfast was a highlight—it wasn’t just a continental spread or buffet, but a full sit-down meal served in the attached restaurant. The location was perfect, right across from the Comedy Barn and The Island, and it was especially fun during the Smoky Mountain Jeep Invasion to be able to sit along the ***** and take in the view. The only drawback was the tight parking. If you’re towing, it can be tricky to maneuver or find space. Aside from that, everything was excellent, and we would definitely stay here again!

First stay at this hotel and overall a good experience. I got a double bed room for about $125 which I felt was reasonable. It is in a good location in a busy part of Pigeon Forge close to many places to eat, find entertainment or shop. This is an older hotel that has had a good make over. Nothing luxury but has everything you need for a short stay. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast was above average, out of a kitchen and was free with the stay. I would stay here again.

The hotel is in a great location right on the main drag. The signature drinks weren’t great nor was the food. There are so many food options nearby. The pool is heated and was delightful! The staff is well above average!

Room was not cleaned, ran out of toilet paper, ran out of coffee and creamer. Needs updating. Tight parking spaces. Free breakfast was good. Pool and hot tub was great. Reception was good, friendly.
