The house was clean and cozy. Just close enough to the main strip of Gatlinburg that if you don’t make the last trolly the walk back isn’t horrible.We had two kids with us and they had a blast.

Great Place to Stay

This was our second time staying here and would definitely recommend it. When we first arrived we thought there may be an issue with the guest toilet and reached out to the owners to be on the safe side, he came out right away to take a look, which was much appreciated. The owners also made sure to have maintenance take care of the driveway before we arrived to ensure there was no ice. The house is well stocked with towels, wash cloths, cookware, and cleaning supplies. Plus, the location is ideal if you want to be close to downtown Gatlinburg, but avoid all of the noise from the crowds.

Clean and spacious property

We had a family of 5 including 3 kids aged 7, 12 and 14 and there was plenty of space for us to split into the 3 rooms for comfortable sleeping. The property had a well stocked kitchen (even with some extras such as microwave popcorn and we loved that they left us a package of water bottles). The hosts were extremely responsive (even dropping off some laundry pods for us when i reached out indicating there was only 1 in our unit). The property is on the edge of town so we did usually drive if we were going to eat (it is about a 1 mile walk/drive) but we did appreciate the quiet surroundings (and a black bear we saw out our window). Finally i appreciated the host's willingness to let us check out just a bit later on our last day since we needed to shower after a morning hike.
