Pandora’s Forest is definitely NOT a 5-star resort but it is absolutely a 5-star experience.From the moment we got there, everyone we met was so friendly and accommodating. Kara and Jerry, the new owners, are obviously doing all they can to update things and add to the experience. Dee was especially nice and we enjoyed visiting with her.The chalet, the bathrooms and all the building are definitely rustic but things were kept clean. It was surprising at first to not have a bathroom with our room but you get used to it. Our bed was really comfy and it was nice to have a mini-fridge in the room..The pool was fabulous…the hot tub was especially nice on cool mornings. We are not night time people so the music and dancing wasn’t for us but it seemed like everyone who went really enjoyed it.The food was really good too - tasty burgers, really good pizza and chicken sandwiches and so reasonably priced. You can bring your own alcohol, which saves lots of money, and they provide free soft drinks and water, which is awesome.The location in the woods was so nice…we enjoyed listening to the woodpeckers. Lots of people leave their campers there all the time then come whenever but there were lots of people who were there for the first time, too.We have been to lifestyle and nudist resorts all over the country and this is one we would definitely visit again. Don’t go expecting a lush resort because that’s not what this is but if you can manage your expectations and kick back, I don’t see how you could be disappointed. You will definitely have fun.

Awesome place! We love staying here and have made many friends here! The owners and staff are hard working and warm. Mayor Jimmy is very welcoming. The DJ does a great job of keeping the party alive. I love dressing up for the theme nights on the weekends! The pool and hot tub are always kept clean and sanitized. Come hang out or get in on the pool volleyball... Stay for the dance party! 🏊🏐🌃👌🍻

Visited for the first time and we are hooked! I have never been to a place like this before. I was very nervous upon arrival but wanted to try something new.Immediately the staff was very welcoming. The young lady at check in could tell I was a bit apprehensive. She gave us a nice tour of the campgrounds and went over the rules. She helped set my mind at ease. All of the staff was great, very friendly and took good care of us. The campers were also amazing. Everyone is very down to earth and we were welcomed by all the regulars. There was never any pressure at all and I never felt uncomfortable. It was especially nice to be at an adults only campgrounds and just enjoy the quiet, adult conversations, and drinks by the pool. It was the most relaxing trip of my life.We rented the glampsite and it was very comfortable. It is just a small room and has the basics, bed, mini fridge, microwave, and table. It was just the right amount of space needed. We didnt even spend much time in the room anyways. You use the bathouse for showing and toileting.This is not a 5 star resort and is very rustic and basic. Some areas could use some cleaning up and upgrades but the environment, people, and relaxed vibe made it so you didnt even care about that stuff. Dont come expecting the Ritz, just come to have a good time!!My only regrets are not trying this place sooner. I cannot stress how relaxing it was and how nice we were treated!! This is now our go to for adult only trips.

Kara and Jerry are fabulous! Mayor Jimmy is welcoming! The kitchen staff and cleaning crew are always top notch! Re-Becca and Carl are always ready for shots and those campers at the other end are the life of the party! Michael, Maddie, and Morty welcome you with a smile! We love everyone! Such a great place!

Attended the July 4th festivities on Saturday. Jerry was awesome and worked hard to make sure everything was perfect for the occasion. Always a friendly crowd here with lots of great people. I met folks from all over the country that came here just for this event. I hope this will be a great place for many years to come!

Decided to take a random drive with no plans for our 5th anniversary, somehow we ended up at pandora’s Forest…… we were hesitant at first being our first experience like this but we were blown away by how welcoming and comfortable the owners and everyone made us feel! Our only regret is getting there late and missing the pool party. We will definitely be returning soon.

I absolutely loved it here and we will 100% be going back! The staff are easy to talk to and super helpful and the community is so welcoming! Definitely plan a trip!

If you know, you know!! Hands down, feels like another dimension! Absolutely amazing!! Will definitely be returning ASAP!! 🍍

The owners do a fantastic job taking care of all the guests. We love going there!

I was excited to return and see how things were picking up for the new season. This past year the new owners have done a lot to really clean the place up. The staff was always very welcoming and eager to make your stay enjoyable. I did enjoy my stay and seeing a lot of familiar faces but things really seemed off. You can tell that spring cleaning is under way but a bit unorganized. Jerry seemed to be more interested in enjoying the ladys in the lifestyle and gossiping than running a business. You could obviously tell Kara was not on property that weekend. No warm welcome at check in. No attention from staff or Jerry and nothing seemed to be very relaxing. I will return and shrug it off to new help and a distracted owner. I still plan on return visits but would hate to see the past repeat itself.

Owner was very stuck up and spoke to some of us as if we were second rate citizens. No manners at all. Also the food area we as poorly kept no one washing hands not even a sink to do so and they were refilling coffee pot water out of the bathroom. The outside shower area smelled of feces and there bar area was filthy not to mention the guy behind the bar had no clue what he was doing except to dry hump some giro all night. Very poor service for a bar that suppose to sell drinks. What a joke

Nice resort. Very enjoyable. Great place to be able to relax.

This was my first time to Pandora’s and it was amazing! The staff is wonderful and went above and beyond my expectations! The guests were all so nice and welcoming!! Nothing about my stay was uncomfortable at all! The new cabins are very comfortable. I look forward to going back soon, and will definitely recommend Pandora’s to anyone!! BEST BIRTHDAY in a long time!!

This was our first time at Pandora’s Forest and we had a great time! Everyone was very friendly and accommodating! The pool was beautiful and clean, the games were terrific, the food was delicious. The dj played all kinds of music and kept the party going for hours! So much fun! We made new friends shortly after arriving. We loved our vacation and will definitely be going back! We had an amazing vacation so thank you to everyone at Pandora’s Forest for making us feel so welcome!!

One of the most beautiful hidden gems of Eastern Tennessee. Privately tucked in the woods this clothing optical place offers vivid parties with great music every weekend with very friendly crowd and welcoming owners that will go out of the way to make you feel happy.You can rent a cabin or bring your own camper or tent (during the summer) enjoy the pool or the hot tub that are kept nice and clean.Certainly a place to come over and over... never boring always fun

Staff was amazing and very accommodating. We very much enjoyed our stay and will be back !!!

Amazing place..... The owners are amazingly great people. The atmosphere is very welcoming and your made to feel right at home among family. (Maybe not the best description depending on how crazy your family is if like mine thats not a good description lol) better way to describe is you wont feel awkward or put of place in anyway. Your made to feel as like youve been coming there for years ( like Cheers) There is aura over the place that makes you want to play and enjoy yourself you just cant help it. Had a play house with many different furniture to play on. Stripper pole as well. Amazing pool and hot tub as well as club house with dance floor and pool table. My favorite game darts i hope they add to the clubhouse. Great theme nights and there is fishing here as well. There isnt truly any words that come close to describing just how amazing this place is.

It was our first visiting and we were not disappointed. Owners and staff were very helpful getting us and our camper setup and making sure we had everything we needed for the best weekend possible. Pool was clean with very comfortable water temperature. All campers we met were super friendly and welcoming inviting us for pool volleyball. The nightclub was a great place to unwind at the end of the day singing karaoke, playing pool, and dancing. We are very much looking forward to our next vacation and to all the additions the new owners are working on.M&T

If it was more organized, indoor plumbing, and a tour from an actual employee would have been great. Way too expensive! Id rather used my money elsewhere. Indoor plumbing in the middle of the night would be incredible.

Great atmosphere, good time, great place to stay if you are traveling or just stopping by for the day. Staff are very friendly and the place is always clean. You can have parties or just go solo. Either way you are sure to have a good time.

This place is amazing. Love the owners and just a great comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. Best DJ i have ever herd. Thanks for the great music Snoopy!!! Will definitely be back

Very nice group of folks, main building has been destroyed by fire ,reason for 4 stars, but they have replaced it with several very nice ,cottages for guest , we will revisit

We just stayed over Memorial Day weekend and had a wonderful time! The new owners are wonderful and so hard working. My husband and I enjoyed ourselves! The place was decorated so nice and the DJs were amazing. We love it here!!

For starters the lodge is gone. It somehow burned to the ground. The chalets do not have bathrooms. You have to use a bath house and shared showers. Way over priced for a bed and a chair. Plus the resort fees and day fees just to attend a party with all monogamous couples. The “new” owners are rude and stalk around like they are looking for a fight. Which I did hear he assaulted a guest. I would give zero stars if possible. Don’t waste your money!

New owners and Staff were amazing! Felt welcomed and like life long friends the moment we got there. Place is t perfect but great things are coming and in the works.

Everything was wonderful. We had a great time. Clean facilities, friendly staff, nice people. We did not stay the night so unable to review the accommodations. The ONLY problem was the food. The website shows a menu that is pretty nice looking. The burgers we got were poor quality. They were what I call Bubba Burgers. The super cheap frozen patties from walmart. There were no steaks as advertised. It looks like the kitchen may have suffered some sort of damage and is on the re-build. We will be back but next time will be bringing our own food. If you are a swinger or nudist, do not pass this place up.

This was my husband and I first time ever coming to a place like this. The people were so nice we had the best time. We will definitely be back.

Courteous staff clean establishment nice friendly atmosphere looking forward to my next visit

We love Pandora’s Forest. We’ve been going there for a few years. This past weekend was the 1st time we’ve been since the new owners have taken over. They have done a lot to spruce up the place. They have been through a lot since taking over ownership- pandemic, tornado warnings, and the lodge catching fire. I am very impressed with how they are handling things. We look forward to coming to the forest for many years to come

Good people..Great atmosphere.. great pool hotel and all around good fun.. Great Dj and music

Place is perfect get away lovely staff judgement free for sure taking my friends next time!!!

A wonderful place. They made us feel right at home. The food was amazing, I just wished they stayed open a little longer. Something didnt go as planned but the owners took care of it right away and made it right. We will definitely be back..

The place is very clean!! Pool is heated. Very helpful staff and very friendly people.!! A great place to relax!!

Very liberating also welcoming environment and theres is 0 body shaming truly a fun place

Nice place and the new owners are super nice, they have done alot of work to the place...

What a great getaway. Me and my girlfriend stayed the weekend and had a blast. The owners and staff are top notch. Food was great and well priced. We stayed in cabin first night then stayed in the lodge the next. The neon room was great. Definitely going back soon, everyone was super nice and made you feel right at home..highly recommended to check them out

We visited Pandoras Forest over the Memorial Day weekend 2020, we had not visited Pandoras Forest since the same weekend last year 2019, we were very skeptical on retuning this year because the horrible experience we had on our first visit to Pandoras Forest, a few friends of our are members there and has been telling us of what the new Pandoras Forest is like under new ownership, so we wentto our shock and amazement WOW, NO I MEAN WOW, how could 2 people be responsible for making so many changes in so little time Jerry and Kara are awesome and have completed so much in so little time, just WOW, any other review before Jan 1st 2020, should be deleted, this is definitely not last years Pandoras, we were so impressed with the new Pandoras Forest we now are Village People (members) we have found our new home, thank you Jerry and Kara for what you are doing, JIM O.

I hate these people. It was extremely over priced. And you have to pay to eat. Its dead and run down. The playhouse is disgusting and the whole place smells like mold. Very low quality place. Felt like I was staying at someones house. I was way over charged for clean up even though our mess was minimal dont go to this place its a scam for your money. Shady people in a shady place.😠😠😠😠

Very friendly. Excellent service. Staff was very knowledgeable and eager to help. Everyone was friendly and happy to come introduce themselves.

Absolutely love this place! We come every weekend 🙃

Back in the day I am confident this was a top notch place to be. However it is in dire need of updates. We had campsite reserved, so can not comment on the rooms or individual chalets but the club, pool area & hot tub area was like you stepped back into a time machine and got out in the 70s or 80s.Quite possible its very fun with the right crowd but that still doesnt change the facilities.

The new owners are trying to make improvements and are making it great!

It was awesome! Everyone was so sweet and it was very rustic and we had an absolute blast! Cant wait to go back!

Great place to take it all off and relax. Always enjoy getting out and getting away from it all there

Best time ever. Meet some wonderful people. Even if you go just to get some all.over sun.

I want to go. But hopefully its open in the covid-19 era.

Awsome timeMy fiance loved it here and dancing the night away in the club, then enjoying little R&R in the hot tubThe themed rooms were very nice.Well be back. :)

I just love this place it’s the only place that don’t feel left out.

Really nice place! Meet a lot of cool people and had a lot of fun!

New owners making it great again!

It was a surprising find in crossville! Everyone was extremely nice!

Staff is great the place is great we enjoyed the weekend

Only for the truly adventurous and fun seeking person membership club nudist colony

Outdated needed alot of maintenance. Value for price not great

A nice retreat. We expect to return in the summer

Not many people. Most are smokers. If you are new and dont know anyone, the residents are standoffish and not interested in getting to know you.

Would love to take my wife but shes not sure bout this lifestyle! Any suggestions????

Nice people ....excellent setting

Great place with awesome staff

Wonderful people, fun times for the Mrs. and I.

Had an amazing time going back sooner than later

Love it!
