From your guest room here at Old Creek Lodge you can easily walk across the street and hop on Ober Gatlinburg’s Aerial Tramway or take a short walk to the Gatlinburg SkyLife Park, wine and moonshine tastings, or Old Dad’s General store to pick up any items that you may need. Our location makes enjoying all that Gatlinburg has to offer simple and easy during any season but it can be extra helpful during a winter vacation.

When staying with us at our downtown Gatlinburg hotel you’ll get to experience the coziness and rustic vibes of a cabin but with the convenience of being in a hotel in a great location.

Due to their family history and love of the Great Smoky Mountains, they have designed the hotel to truly reflect the Smokies. Our rooms are beautifully decorated with a rustic vibe and include custom made hickory furniture, hardwood floors, historical photographs from the national park, walk-in showers, and luxurious beds that were custom made by Brothers Bedding in Knoxville, TN. Add in a gas fireplace and a private balcony overlooking a tranquil mountain river and you’ll find that Old Creek Lodge is the perfect home away from home here in Gatlinburg, TN.
