Incredible peaceful setting within walking distance to everything. Home was well furnished with everything we needed and even had a few extras like a snack basket. Our party of 5 had plenty of room and everyone enjoyed their stay. This will be our new go-to place to stay in Gatlinburg when we return!

The house was clean and cozy. Just close enough to the main strip of Gatlinburg that if you don’t make the last trolly the walk back isn’t horrible.We had two kids with us and they had a blast.
