Location is great with Gatlinburg downtown just down the slope but takes about 15-20 mins to drive down. Quite neighborhood with a lot of construction going on after the wildfires The furniture was dated in the house with squeaky mattresses to broken chair on the patio We had an issue with a jack and Jill bathroom door not closing on either side . Contacted the property management company the first day, no one turned up till the next day and then also they were not able to fix it after multiple visits. So we had to use other bathrooms which was a big hassle Contacted the owner and the only response I got was “sorry that it was not fixed” and nothing else I am sure you can find better properties at that high price (given it was Labor Day weekend) Overall good experience but not so impressed by the owner

My family of 8 stayed in Gatlinburg recently. We enjoyed our time in our home in Mountain Laurel Chalets. The location was perfect - we were close to downtown and many of the attractions and restaurants we wanted to see. I would highly recommend this location to other visitors!
