Great Stay
We enjoyed our stay at this property. The property was clean and there was a little gym that we could use during our stay. Checkin process was seamless. I can understand where some of the other reviews noted the specific unit was difficult to find in the dark. It took us three times to where we did t have to do u-turns….even in the light. But once you have it you have it. You are even given printed out step by step directions at check in. We did notice that there were no towels at the gym. We called the office and within 5 mins someone was there to ensure towels were supplied etc. We appreciated the number of beds so kids would have their own bed and the view was gorgeous.

Beautiful, but steep!
Beautiful views from this well-appointed condo at the very top of SMCC. One of the best appointed kitchens (with respect to pots/pans/tools) that I have seen. We use VRBO in many parts of the world. However, as others have said, this is a very challenging location to find. Roads are steep, curves are blind, walking is possible but challenging for even the those in good shape (me!). We were on a motorcycle trip and found both the arrival and departure (stayed for three nights) extremely challenging. Note also that both Bryson City and Cherokee are about equidistant from this property. Plan on one hour round trip to either place for groceries, etc. Wish we had known that this property is managed by SMCC, not an individual as we could have asked for an easier location to access. Lesson learned.

Wonderful stay in the Smoky's
This unit is amazing and we had a wonderful stay. The view from the deck is beautiful as well as the deck itself. Everything was so clean and fresh. The pool and jacuzzi were wonderful. Check in was easy. Would be hard to find this place at night. Can't imagine you would be disappointed in any way staying here. We would love to return!
