Cozy and welcoming!!! 🤗 As for the location, this apartment is in the perfect spot. You can easily walk to the main streets of downtown Gatlinburg and enjoy the shops, restaurants, and everything the area has to offer. For me, it’s very important to have a comfortable mattress and soft, clean pillows, and you’ll find exactly that here. 😴 You can get a great night’s sleep and recharge your energy so you’re ready to enjoy the next day. Communication with the property managers was excellent as well. 👌 I highly recommend this place 100%! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was a great place to stay as a family of six. The heated indoor pool was a big hit with our kids and the additional roll away beds were great for sleeping everyone comfortably. The location is also excellent, within walking distance to all our favorite places in Gatlinburg and a short drive to the park. We hope to stay here again in the future.

We loved our condo. It was cozy and location was walking distance from several things. It was clean, smelled good, never had a problem with parking, and the indoor pool was an awesome bonus. It was clean and never crowded. We would absolutely stay again!!

A pleasant condo

My husband, I and our 10-year-old daughter spent 5 nights in August this year. The room is pretty neat, and also very convenient to everything, including restaurants, fun activities in the town and the mountain, of course. Overall, our stay was very pleasant.

The location was wonderful. The price for that location was so worth it. This specific room was clean but there were scuffs on walls and such from previous visitors. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. You can easily and safely walk to anything on the Gatlinburg strip. If we return to Gatlinburg, i will look to see if this specific room is available before looking elsewhere.

Great place and great location!

Great location, super cute condo only a couple minute walk to the main strip in Gatlinburg. The condo was great, very clean, nicely decorated, equipped with everything you need and very quiet. Only recommendation for the future would be to consider a dishwasher and maybe a ceiling fan for the bedroom. Overall it was perfect, really enjoyed our stay!!

Bear Pause Retreat

We stayed for a year late 30th anniversary trip. Apartment was in a great location to walk to anything in downtown. Easy access on the back road so it was convenient to going to other places also. Nice accommodations and amazing host who checked in with us during our stay! Would definitely book again with them!

Updates needed

The property was clean, well appointed and easy to access. However, we found the bed to be uncomfortable, carpet in need of replacement along with the spigot in the shower which was loose.

Gorgeous getaway in Gatlinburg!

This place was so cute! It was within walking distance of so many restaurants, and was SUPER close to the Smoky Mountains! We spent most of our time in the Smokys (absolutely gorgeous weekend with amazing fall colors). The property owner was communicative and followed up several times throughout our stay to ensure we had everything we needed. There is wifi, but streaming football games was tough because the wifi kept going out, but we were honestly so tired from our long days of hiking, I wasn't too annoyed. Overall great place that was clean and quiet and had BEAR-y cute decorations.

Quick break

I really don't have much to add that hadn't been said. Great communication. Great location. Adequate facilities. My family and I really enjoyed our stay. We walked to so many close by places where parking would have been a real hassle. The pools seemed clean and not crowded however we had many things to do so didn't use them. While we were there anyway it was nice and quite so I can only assume that's the norm.
