Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our second time renting this home for a family reunion. The setup and condition of the house are perfect for our family. It has been renovated since we last visited. The kitchen setup is perfect with double ovens/cooktops/dishwashers/coffee makers/trash cans and plenty of cookware, utensils, and cups. The expanded deck is really nice but we did wish there were a few more chairs on the deck. The kids loved the theater room, the internet was fast, and the TVs had cable plus smart capabilities for streaming. With the pool table and provided games we could have spent the whole time in the house and been very happy. We were happy to find the grills are now up on the deck (for bear safety) and we were supplied with ample propane for our stay. Everyone at Mountain Laurel Chalets was wonderful to work with and I would happily rent from them again as they made the entire rental experience easy and were all so nice. The only thing that would prevent us from renting this house again is that the bears are very aggressive about trying to get food from cars and have learned to come by regularly to check if cars are open and also would not leave us alone while we were trying to pack up and leave. I really think the owners should add more substantial fencing around the parking area and also work with the wildlife agency to figure out how to keep the bears off the property. It is clear they know what to do to get what they want (people food) and are willing to be pretty aggressive to get it.

Bears were plenty but not a nuisance as in the past couple of years. Counting down the days to go back nest year.

We saw black bear every day we were there, including one on the top deck. One car was broken into by a bear. The only down side was that the ice maker broke mid way thru our stay and was not repaired. We had 4 days without ice.

Furniture is too big for rooms Hard to move around in dining area. Rug in bedroom and washing machine need cleaning Recommend a microwave oven in kitchenette on main lever
Hit knee several times trying to get between bed and dresser Very difficult to find chalet at night and road is too narrow for two cars to pass The chalet was fully equipped with everything one could need.(even board games) Maintenance quickly responded The view was spectacular Enjoyed the layout with various areas for different activities

Reviewer Comments: Overall the cabin was lovely - I love the renovations (I am a previous visitor) the theatre room addition is great but the seats were nasty and had hair everywhere. We bought lint rollers but that didn't work out well so we didn't utilize that room which was a disappointment (NBA playoffs) The tv in the last bedroom on the left upstairs picture and volume was sporadic the whole visit and couldn't be watched. If you open the door to the fridge upstairs there is a loud popping sound. Other than this the rental was great. Loved the space in the kitchen.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Cons: Your company advertised 6 Kings; 6 Queens. There were 5 Kings and 7 Queens ��My guests who had to sleep in the Queen were angry because of this.
The bears were too aggressive for people; someone is bound to get seriously injured or worse
The kitchen refrigerator leaked and Beeped intermittently the entire stay; water was everywhere. Maintenance came a couple times.
The vent in the floor between kitchen and Family room became a Trip Hazard
Please advise people Before they come that large vehicles/buses cannot make it up the mountains

Pros: The Lodge is Beautiful
Love Love Love the kitchen
It accommodates a large gathering beautifully
Gatlinburg is Fun

We have stayed each year from the past 20+. Suggestion - make sure there are enough mugs etc to serve 24. The breaker was not strong enough for stoves, griddles etc. Place mats were missing.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a group of 20 that stayed for the second time at this particular rental. There were only a few things that we wish were different. The parking is definitely a tight fit - the fewer and "smaller" cars the better. We only had two towels per room - that meant we had to either wash or go back to the office to get more. We booked for four nights so that should have been taken into consideration. The cabin was very clean and nicely decorated. Lots of room on the decks as well.

Laurel Lodge is perfect for our group. Everyone has their own bedroom and bathroom. There are plenty of common spaces for playing games, watching movies, and relaxing. View from the porch is amazing.
This year we were lucky enough to have 70 degree weather one day and snow the next. How amazing. We made many wonderful memories and plan to be back.

We had a wonderful stay at our cabin. It was well laid out. We had 23 people. All the adults were able to stay upstairs while all the younger folks were downstairs. It was perfectly equipped with everything we needed. No trips to the store for toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, dish liquid, or dishwasher liquid. That was amazing and has never happened anywhere I’ve ever stayed! The kitchen was also well equipped. Plenty of dishes, silverware, and other handy utensils. I would definitely recommend this cabin!!

The lodge is large enough for us to spread out and cozy enough for us to enjoy each other in the open spaces. The kitchen has everything you would need to prepare meals for a large group. We loved the updates that have been done to the lodge. More seating was added to the upstairs living area & it was perfect for us to get together.

Laurel Lodge is just a fine chalet served by a great company.

Cozy, beautifully decorated, Christmas tree, wonderful deck and view, impressively well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and linens. Loved the hot tub!

A note to maintenance: the turntable in the microwave is not operating so you have to stop and start several times/rotate your dish to get even heating in the microwave.

A suggestion for the owners: somewhere on the ground level, either along the entry way hall or nearby inside the downstairs living area, a row of coat hooks would be fantastic.

The property management staff were very nice and super helpful. Anything we needed they had it covered in minutes. We are already booked for 2022 and we are all excited to be going back another year. Laurel Lodge is the absolute best place to stay in Gatlinburg for a large group...12 bedrooms with a private bath for each room is hard to find. The house is always so clean and has had a beautiful upgrade...especially the kitchen. Cannot say enough of good things about this house and the people who manage it.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Laurel Lodge was a great place to have our family reunion. We traveled from New York, Virginia, North Carolina, Texas, and Florida. We took advantage of everything the area had to offer, but the best memories will be from time spent in Laurel Lodge. We reminisced and laughed for hours in the kitchen / dining / living area and soaked up the great weather and views from the deck. We try to get together every 2 - 3 years in a different location, but Laurel Lodge may be our first repeat location. Mount Laurel Chalets made sure our stay was as enjoyable as possible. Quick response whenever I contacted them thru the mobile app when in need of trash pick up or household supplies. Hope to be back - Jim P.
