Thanksgiving Get-away
I was looking for a place to accommodate family for Thanksgiving. Our family was located in four different states and this Dragon Tail Chalet was the perfect midpoint location. The fully equipped kitchen met our needs in serving our Thanksgiving meal and for our family visit. The beautiful mountain backdrop with a cozey lite fireplace gave us all a relaxing home felt atmosphere. The amenities provided met our expectations and all in all it was the perfect get away. Thanks Danny and Nickey for making your home available for others to enjoy.

Beautiful View - Nice Area - Easy Check In
Everything was terrific. There are no complaints. But, let me add this. You are best served to go in a 4 wheel drive. Our vehicle really struggled to get there....really struggled. Other than that, enjoyed our stay very much. A home away from home.

GET AWAY CHALET IN THE SMOKIES
If you are looking for a place to get away from it all, this is the place to go. We were three mature couples and one dog who traveled to Robinsville to try our skills on "The Tail of The Dragon". For those of you unfamiliar with Tail of the Dragon, it is an 11 mile section of 129 with 318 curves , a motorcycle and sports car enthusiasts fun spot. The " Dragon" is about 20 minutes from the Chalet. Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg are an hour and a half away.
We found this chalet on VRBO and were happy with our choice. The Chalet offers privacy with fantastic views of the Smokies. It's large wrap around deck and covered porch are a great way to view the scenery or if you prefer the indoors, you can enjoy the view while sitting by the fireplace in the living room, with its floor to ceiling windows. During the day you cannot even see your neighbors, they are well hidden in the trees.
The home is nicely furnished and kept clean and well cared for. There was an easy check in and check out process with keyless entry into the home. The owners communicated well . In the description it states that the driveway is gravel and steep, and they mean it. The entire road to get to the house is a narrow gravel road going up a mountain, with a speed limit of 11 mph. We always arrived back home before dark because we did not want to venture on the road in the dark. It was very challenging. I would not recommend bringing a car that has been lowered or a motorcycle to the chalet, they will not do well getting to the drivewqy.
The kitchen was equiped with the basic utensils, but if you plan on cooking meals here you may want to bring some extras. We had to go out and buy a blender, pitcher, casserole dishes and serving bowls because the chalet did not have them. They do have a drip coffee maker and even had some coffee and creamer there for us to use. The bathrooms were well supplied with shampoo, body soap and conditioner and several hair dryers.
If you like to get away from it all when you vacation, this is the place for you. It will be your own private little haven while you are there. Enjoy.

Serene, Secluded, Beautiful
This property is excellent. The view through the floor to ceiling windows gives you no option but to relax and enjoy. The house itself offers plenty of room for together time (group of 8) in the living area and around the big dining table, but provides areas to sit alone and read or just take in the views.
We enjoyed playing corn hole and roasting marshmallows at the firepit. We took advantage of the hot tub and enjoyed the foosball and video games in the lower level too. In fact, there wasn't anything there we didn't enjoy. Very welcoming and well equipped for sleeping, eating, and playing.
Away from the property, we highly recommend the Joyce Kilmer Forest hike. The ancient trees all along the trail are beautiful! After a hike, take the time to eat at Lynn's Place in Robbinsville. Good food and very friendly hometown people.
