[Ed. Note: From high teas to indoor hotel pools in the Smokies, Hotel Maven JetSetCD certainly lives up to her name. Enjoy.]

Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, Tennesee might be known best as the home of Dollyworld, but it's Gatlinburg's Glenstone Lodge which holds the power in this area where gimmicks and indoor pools reign supreme.

The Smoky Moutains aren't exactly a luxury destination, and you can't expect mints on pillows in a region hotly anticipating the spring "Wildflower Pilgrimmage" and "An Evening with Jimbo Whaley." It's not secret that Gatlinburg's hotel offerings are outdated and still survive on depositing a sheaf of pamphlets in the entryway at the nearest IHOP.

[Editor's Note: Hotel Maven belindai does plenty of family travel. belindai knows what she is getting when she books a Best Western, however, she expects a clean, well lighted place to rest her head--don't we all? So what did you think of the Twin Islands Best Western belindai? ]

Twin Islands Best Western - an Island you would want to voted off of! We were part of a group and the reservations were made for us. I checked out the website and everything looked good...looks can be deceiving.
