This place is beyond disgusting. The place looks and smells as if it is never cleaned. The furniture is all goodwill quality. I have a 3 year old and would not bathe her in the tub. I would only take a very quick shower. I have stayed here three times in the past 25 years and this will definately be my last. Do not recommend it to anyone.
Just returned from Carr's during our 4th of July vacation along with my parents and mother & father in-law.And when trying to find a place to accommodate 6 people i lucked up and found Carr's while seaching the net.So i booked a 2 bedroom apartment which had 3 queens and kitchen for $115.88 a night which is a killer dealer! AND WE ALL ...
We first went to Carr's over 50 years ago while students at UT. It is still the place to go in Gatlinburg. Quiet, friendly staff and walking distance to center of Gatlinburg. We have been back a number of times and will go again. The good things our weigh the bad. There were a few lights out around buildings, exhaust fan in bathroom out, but I will not tell you our favorite room because you will fall in love with it too.
This is a family run business. No phones, No internet, No need. This is the place that my family has chosen for the last 6 years to kick back and relax. They are extremely understanding of emergencies and are flexible in there reservations. The staff bends over backwards to take care of you. If you are driving through or looking for a cabin on the stream look no farther!

Beautiful and relaxing getaway

My husband and I have been going here for 25 years. The resort is in a beautiful setting. We always get a room or cottage on the creek. It is very peaceful sitting on the porch and listening to creek. There is virtually any kind of accommodation you could ask for, accomodating small or large families. Some of the rooms could use a makeover, ...
I read all the reviews and visited the website- was really excited. Much to my suprise, this place is NOTHING that I expected. Our room was dirty, had dead bugs on the floor, the wallpaper was coming off the walls and there were wholes in the walls. They overbooked our room, so we had to change rooms mid trip. This place was gross! I will NEVER ...

my family comes to carrs about three times a year for mini vacations.we would not stay any other place.it brings back a time when life was not so hectic!
My husband and I have been coming to Carrs for about 25 years. We absolutely love it and feel that a trip to Gatlinburg wouldn't be complete without staying there. It's hard to believe you are just a few minutes from the heart of the city. The place is very secluded and restful, with the soothing sound of the creek just outside your door ...
