Under Canvas Great Smoky Mountains

Staff

Friendly and helpful staff, neat experience, yummy food

The perfect WiFi-free getaway! Great location. Well appointed tents and super friendly staff.

You definitely have to be aware of what you're getting yourself into - and if you are, it more or less meets expectations. The highlight is the super cozy bed (which was kinda saggy - prob needs replacing) - and we thoroughly enjoyed gazing at the stars all warm and cozy in the bed. The worst thing was the crazy sink - would be better if they placed the shelf on top of the hooks on the other wall, so you don't bump your head when brushing your teeth! The shower was actually amazing (or at least, way better than expected). We did not use the stove, although I can see where if it is any later in the Fall/Winter we would have had to - in that case I would have had them come and light it for me, which they offered to do. They also gave us a thorough tutorial on everything upon arrival. They have mini fans in there for when it's warm, and there are two battery-operated lights in the room. They happily fetched me more towels when I wanted them, and overall were more than happy to help. I thought the food was pretty darn good, and so did my family. They have options for everyone from vegan to pescatarian to meat lovers and also kids - and they were more than happy to work with my weird requests (no this, add that, etc). The gravel is NOISY, and of course there's always some kid bouncing their flashlight all over the place - such is life. They provide a blindfold, and should add earplugs for the sensitive - we were fine. Overpriced? yup, for sure. Enjoyable? yes!

The whole staff made the trip extremely special. They were very helpful and professional
