CONNER HILL MOTOR LODGE, Pigeon Forge

The motel is 5 km from Dollywood and 15 minutes from Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The Parkway trolley stops right outside, offering easy access to attractions. Numerous restaurants are within walking distance, including Waffle House, Cracker Barrel, and Texas Roadhouse. Gatlinburg Golf Course and Pigeon Forge city centre dining are both a 5-minute drive away. Interstate 40 is 26 km south.

The spacious double rooms have two beds and a carpeted floor. King rooms are available upon request. All rooms include a flat-screen TV with many channels, a coffee maker, and a hairdryer. Some rooms have connecting doors, ideal for families. The property is older, and furnishings may feel dated. Noise from the Parkway and adjacent rooms can be an issue; rooms facing away from the road are quieter. Cleanliness is generally good, but occasional inconsistencies or pest activity have been noted-inspection upon arrival is advisable. There is no elevator, so upper-floor rooms require stairs.

When breakfast is not available, several dining options are within a short walk: Waffle House (next door), Cracker Barrel (across the street), Shoney's, KFC, and Texas Roadhouse are all within 0.5 km. A trolley stop outside provides easy access to the many restaurants and attractions along the Parkway.

The pool is a decent size and open seasonally. Maintenance levels have varied; check current conditions at the front desk. A golf course is within 3 km and may incur additional charges. For other activities, Dollywood and the Great Smoky Mountains are a short drive away.

Free private parking is located nearby without reservation needed. The property offers vending machines (drinks), a TV with extensive channels, and reliable WiFi. There is no elevator, airport shuttle, or restaurant. Handicap-accessible rooms have a tub with rails and chair (no walk-in shower). Family rooms and adjoining rooms are available. Payment is accepted via Amex, Visa, Discover, and MasterCard. Check-in is from 15:00 to 23:30; check-out until 11:00.
