If you're heading to the park, make your way down ski mountain and turn right once you get to Cici's Pizza. You'll see the visitors center and can pick up all sorts of info on hikes and scenic trails. If you're heading to downtown, you have a few options. You can head up to Ober Gatlinburg and take the aerial tram into downtown. There is a fee for parking and the tram itself. Get close to the window. The view is great!
The next option is to head down the hill and you'll find lots of options for paid parking. Okay, shhh...I'm going to tell you a secret. Turn left when you get to Cici's on River Road. There is a little bit of free parking here. You might get a spot if you start early in the day. If not, the best deal in town for short term parking is Downtown Parking right next to Tom and Earl's Back Alley Grill, also on River Road. It's cash only and $2.00 per hour. Everything else in town is generally a flat rate of $15 or $20, which is great if you're staying all day.
Another option is to take the trolley. The trolley doesn't come to the chalet but there is free parking at the visitor center and you can ride the trolley for free.
Lastly, you can Uber to Ober. Haha! See what I did there?

**Please note that the hot tub is currently not operational until further notice. We are actively working on a solution, and this notice will be removed once a replacement has been scheduled. If you have any questions, please reach out to Guest Services.**
The driveway is extremely steep and a 4WD or AWD is recommended.
We cannot do early check-ins or late check-outs from Memorial Day to New Years Day.
All late check-outs have to be pre-approved 24 hours in advance, or a $100 fine will be charged if you stay past check-out time without permission. NO PETS ALLOWED!
*Community Resort pool is open from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
*Guests must be at least 21 years old to book this listing.

Overall nice play to stay. The hot tub was malfunctioning, which was a letdown. Apparently that was noted on the page when we reserved but did not notice that specific wording. It has nice touches, such as a towel warmer in the bathroom. The sauna was very nice, as well. The biggest caveat is just how steep the driveway is - our car measures angles and the driveway averaged over 20% degrees, topping out at 25% near the bottom.I still recommend it and would stay there again.

A Perfect Getaway

This is one of the cleanest, most well maintained properties I have ever stayed in! This chalet was the perfect size for our family and the loft was great for our kids. Do not follow the Google Map directions though...look at your map ahead of time as there is a much easier way to the location. The driveway is indeed steep. We handled it fine in our AWD Rav4, but if there is snow we would definitely feel better in a 4WD vehicle. The hot tub was extremely clean and was a relief after a day on the slopes of Ober. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans for cooking and the starter supplies were more than enough for a short stay. Our family can't wait to stay in this chalet again.
