Perfect for a short stay in the mountains

Property was clean and had plenty of space for two. Within walking distance of downtown Gatlinburg and only about 15 minutes for some great hiking spots in the Smokey’s. Check in/check out were easy.

Fun weekend

Great space. Convenient location to Gatlinburg, we walked everywhere. Short drive to trails. Scenic drive to Cades Cove. And let’s not forget the discounts on attractions that were included with our stay. Totally worth it!

The climb

Our room was nice and clean. It had everything you would need. The only thing was the walk to downtown Gatlinburg. It wasn't to horrible but for older people it could be a bit challenging. Its all downhill to get there and then uphill to get back. We had a question about parking when we got there and the owner was easy to contact and then they also sent a text the next day to make sure we got checked in ok.

Great view of the bustle of Gatlinburg.

The condo itself was nice. Wasn’t able to get the fireplace to work, but the heated vent in the bathroom was a big winner. There was plenty of room for the four of us. The beds were comfortable and the showers were hot, which is always a plus. We enjoyed the night view of Gatlinburg lights from the balcony. There is limited parking next to the condo, so you have to walk up a steep hill if you park in the lower lot, but that’s understandable as the hill is also how the complex gets its great view of the city life. The condo is relatively close to plenty of restaurants and a short walking distance to Anakeesta.

This location is perfectly placed right on the edge of town, overlooking town, and within walking distance. There is a slight uphill walk, but well worth burning the calories gained while in town. The property is clean, quiet and quaint. The rooms a great and separated for some privacy. The kitchen is tight for two people but has everything you may need. Besides go out and eat. Save the kitchen for drinks and snacks. Definitely family friendly. The hosts are more than helpful and attentive. Be sure to read their messages. They put time and effort into it and they are useful. When a question came up, it was like they were sitting there waiting to respond. Even when the question was simple, they were there to answer. Can’t wait to get back.

Enjoyable Getaway

We had a great time in our three nights at the Chateau apt. Very close to downtown Gatlinburg and walkable which is important as parking averages 20 . But tbe walk back would be hard for anyone over 70 as it is quite steep. There is too much to do in a day or two. There is something for everyone.

Good trip

It was a nice location with a decent view of the strip. The steep parking lot and lack of sidewalk on the road that leads out to the strip was a little sketchy to walk on, but it is not that far of a walk. You just gotta keep your head on a swivel, especially with kids while walking. I would be sure to bring extra trash bags and toilet paper (they do not supply much those). They have an onsite laundry facility that was $3.50 to wash and $3.00 to dry.
