A Mountain Home for the Cost of a Hotel Room


Great location, very affordable and tastefully decorated 2 bedroom (each with queen size bed plus queen size sleeper sofa), 1 1/2 bath Gatlinburg chalet located just 4 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg/Great Smoky Mountains National Park. 4 people maximum. Free wi-fi. 15 minute drive to action-packed Pigeon Forge. Very clean and private with all the comforts of home. Chalet offers 4 person hot tub and air hockey table. Sleeps 2-4 maximum.

Lover's Loft chalet is close enough to enjoy all that Gatlinburg has to offer yet far enough away to enjoy the solitude and serenity of the mountains. Our guests come to Lover's Loft to celebrate their honeymoon and return for their wedding anniversary and eventually to bring their own children. We hope your family makes wonderful memories of the Smokies as we have. This is our home away from home.

This chalet is perfect for honeymoons, family vacations, anniversaries or even as a unique gift idea. (Gift certificates available.)

RENTER TESTIMONIALS:
'Lover's Loft is so roomy, well maintained and so close to the things we like to do.' Renters from OH

'We have been to the Smokies numerous times and have stayed at various hotels and cabins. Given the value, location and amenities - yours is the best!' Renters from SC

'We feel right at home here. It's close enough to everything that we don't have to spend our whole trip driving from place to place. But, it's far enough away from all the cars and noise that we can have a quiet, peaceful time together after a busy day of shopping and attractions.' Renters from MI

'This chalet is perfect just the way it is. It is cheaper than most hotels with much more amenities. You couldn't ask for more!' Renters from TN

'Like most everyone else we were skeptical about renting on the internet...we have heard horror stories. When we arrived we were very pleased...the chalet is very clean and it felt homey.' Renters from AL

'This was a beautiful cabin and such a cozy place to get away to.' Renters from FL

The cabin was kept ready for us and the place was clean and tidy. The cabin is located on the Ober mountain drive itself so it was pretty close to all the attractions in Gatlinburg and NP. The cabin has a hot tub and an air hockey table to enjoy as a family. We reached out to Cathy and she was super responsive and answered all our queries promptly. We had a wonderful stay and a blast of a time.

Comfortable, clean cabin with a location close enough to the main strip, but quiet enough to get away from it. Communication with owner was very easy. We loved watching our furry black visitor each morning!

Gatlinburg stay

Property was nice. Driveway is very steep. We drove a dually truck- do not recommend but it is doable...as long as nobody else is driving the road that leads to this location. We did get to see a bear here!
