My husband and I just returned from a 5-day stay at the Baskins Creek Condos in Gatlinburg, TN. We stayed in room 211......it was "immaculate"! I've never stayed at a cleaner place than this. I even saw an employee vacuuming the parking lot! (which is a "covered" parking lot - nice!). The units are very roomy with contemporary decor and just a touch of rustic atmosphere. There were more amenities than I expected: dishes, pans ,high quality utensils, glasses, dishwasher - even a washer/dryer and plenty of towels, and, of course, a fireplace, patio, Jacuzzi tub, etc. At this time of year the condo had a special - stay 3 nights and the 4th night is free, so after researching for 2 days, reading reviews of many hotels (not so good reviews) and finally after seeing the pictures of this room - it was a "no-brainer" to book this condo for 5 days. However, I was still surprised at the great value of the place. The condos are located on Woliss Lane, but it is only a 5 minute walk to downtown Gatlinburg - well worth it, or for 50 cents you can ride the trolley. We plan on coming back next year and definitely staying here. I highly recommend the Baskins Creek Condominiums!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, people with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Just spent two fantastic nights at your beautiful condo! Tastefully furnished, impeccably clean. Everything was as promised, and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. We didn't want to leave--the location is ideal, a short walk to the back of the Village. Covered parking, double vanity sink even in the "second" bath and the master bath is luxurious, including a jacuzzi tub. Excellent television reception and choice of channels. Full-sized stove and refrigerator, plus a dishwasher!! We have stayed at other condos in Gatlinburg, but they can't hold a candle to yours for comfort and value. We WILL be back--and often. Thanks again for everything!Recommended for: People with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

The listing that we saw was the actual condo we rented; however we were very surprised at how immaculate and pretty the condo was. It was beautifully furnished and the kitchen was great to work in. There was a manned front desk in the lobby so that someone was available when we needed them up until about 9pm then they left an emergency contact number so we had no trouble getting what we needed. I would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting to stay in Gatlinburg. it was close enough to walk to town and the trolley came right to the front door. It was quiet and peaceful there too. They have a very nice pool. We enjoyed riding the trolley and I would recommend that you get the all-day pass. it is efficient and affordable. We in particular enjoyed the Bear Creek Grill and Bennett's BBQ. Both had very good food.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, tourists without a car, romantic getaway.

My husband and I have stayed many places in and around Gatlinburg over the last 11 years and this is by far one of the best. We came down for a long weekend to relax and be together for our wedding anniversary. (We were married in Gatlinburg 3 years ago.) We were specifically looking for a place close to town and comfortable. We definitely loved this condo. We were able to walk to town in less than 5 minutes. It was very close to the backside of The Village shopping area. The condo was very clean, tastefully decorated and had all of the conveniences of home. I especially enjoyed the tiled shower and the jacuzzi tub. We had beautiful weather but it was still cool enough to use the beautiful fireplace in the evening. We were very close to No Way Jose's which is a must restaurant for us. And if you have children it is very close to the Aquarium. The building was very well maintained and clean which was a positive for me. It is centrally located so that you do not have to drive through town to leave and since we were familiar with the area we were able to use the bypass road to get over to the Parkway when we visited the Arts and Crafts area. Some of the places we recommend to eat are Cherokee Grill, Calhoun's, Best Italian Cafe & Pizzeria and Little House of Pancakes. Definitely visit the shops in Gatlinburg and the Arts and crafts village. Very convenient to the outlets in Pigeon Forge. For night-life Blaine's and Crawdaddy's. The staff with Mountain Vista Rentals was easy to work with and answered any questions I had. We would most certainly stay here again. We LOVED it! Thanks for sharing your condo with us.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

We stayed 4 nights (Aug 8-12) and loved the condo. Was VERY clean and furnished nicely. You can leave your car at the condo and walk to anywhere in the town. Close the the Pancake Pantry which has the best pancakes in Gatlinburg. The front desk ladies were helpful and very friendly. The only thing that we needed but was not in the condo were hot pads to take items out of the oven with. We will be back to stay in this unit. Shirley, the owner, is very informative and fun to talk to. I would highy recommend this complex to anyone wanting room, ease of getting around on foot and great comfort.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children, tourists without a car, sightseeing.

My family have just came back from spending a week in your condo in Gatlinburg we had a great time we were close enough to everything to walk ,The condo its self was more then i expected i have stayed in several cabins and motels in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge and if you cant pay 300.00 or more a night then you may get a noisy motel are a cabin that has the beds changed but not been really cleaned at all. I cant afford to do with teenagers that like to do other activities .I have never stayed at a condo in Gatlinburg so i was a little concerned if I would like it but we were very happy with this condo its is very spacious and well maintained it has huge bathrooms that i loved and washer and dryer so i didnt have to come home and spend all day doing laundry I loved that you could keep your car in a garage out of the weather i also liked that you had to use room key to operate elevators i could go on and on about the nice things about this condo we will be going back to stay it is a little more expense the a motel but so so much more think you will really pleased with it. I want to thank the owners for making there lovely condo available to us and for answering your emails quickly we may have stayed somewhere else if people would have replyed to our email which i am now glad they didnt :) Thanks again Gary Monroe and familyRecommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car, sightseeing.

Two of us were in town to find a large house for a cousins reunion in May. This condo was our base of operation. At the end of the day it is all about the bed. Extreemely comfortable - great nights sleep to continue the adventure. We loved everything starting with contacting Sherley who is just the nicest person. The gal at the front desk was friendly and helpful. The condo and the complex are spotlessly clean. Spaces in the condo were large enough to be inviting and comfortable, We ate in every night, the kitchen provided enough items to get the job done. Located close enough to everything but not in the middle of the madness on main street. We have traveled extensively and I will recomend this unit and complex to anyone who will listen.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, people with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

My husband, son, and I stayed two nights at this condo. It was within easy walking distance of everything we wanted to do in Gatlinburg, and it was so nice to have the space to spread out. Except for my son's pack 'n play, we hardly used the second bedroom, but the living/dining/kitchen area was spacious and a welcome change from a cramped hotel room. The condo was clean and well cared for with a well equipped kitchen. For anyone familiar with Gatlinburg, the condo is only a few blocks from the back entrance to the Village. We would love to stay here again on future visits to Gatlinburg.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway.

A lovely condo, very clean, tasteful furnishings, wonderful view. We always eat in - the kitchen was nice and well stocked with necessary cooking items. A wonderful place to rest and relax. Close enough to town to walk if you are are accustomed to walking. The porch was very pleasant for dining and reading. Too cool to use pool, but should be nice in the summer. Even though the condo faces on a fairly busy street, once inside the view of mountains was great and the brook a soothing sound. Were very pleased with service from rental agent.Recommended for: Age 55+, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

My family stayed at this condo in 2007 and loved every minute of it. It was within a couple of blocks of downtown Gatlinburg but far enough away for peace and quiet. The condo itself was very nice and immaculate. My children enjoyed the pool very much as well. I will definately stay there again and recommend it to others.Recommended for: People with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.
