This was a wonderful weekend getaway for my husband and I celebrating our first anniversary. I am 4 months pregnant and had no issues walking from the condo to all the downtown fun! It is very close to everything, but far enough away to not hear all the downtown noise. We were both comfortable and really enjoyed our stay.
The perfect place to stay. I normally stay right behind the Village during the this week each year. This year I put off find a place pickings were slim. This condo turned out to be perfect. Still not too far from downtown. The walk to town was quick and the trolley dropped off nearby. Love the set up. Perfect for a couple and in my case for one person. Everything I needed in lodging for my stay. Definitely will stay again and hope to come back soon with my husband.
My daughter and I had an awesome stay at “A Simple Retreat”! The rooms were exceptionally clean and cozy. It was walking distance to downtown Gatlinburg. We loved having the pool after hiking and shopping.
This property was conveniently located to downtown Gatlinburg. The accommodations were clean and well stocked. Communication with host was timely and responsive. There are so many things I loved about this property but, my favorites were the clean pool, the privacy of the balcony and the king bed was the most comfortable I've ever experienced
Property is 13 min walk to Gatlinburg downtown, there’s no need to use car (if you enjoy walking and avoiding traffic) easy to move everywhere and pretty quiet property, very affordable place , with no doubt we could rent this place again.
We had a very enjoyable stay! The condo was very clean & just as it was represented in the VRBO listing! William & Renee were very responsive to any question we had! Hopefully we will be able to stay again!
We had such a great stay, this condo was so comfortable and cozy, just as listed. You can’t beat the convenience to Gatlinburg, we will definitely book again for a quick getaway!
The location of this property is great. A short walk to the villages in Gatlinburg and a short drive to the great Smokey mountain National park and to pigeon forge. We loved the walkability when we wanted it and the ease of getting in an out with the car when that was necessary. Was a great place to stay for me and my daughter.
We had a fun time in this quiet and comfy condo in Gatlinburg. Easy parking and short walk to downtown area ( some stairs). Easy check in and great communication with the owners. Highly recommend!
Great location, only about a 10min walk to the main downtown strip. We were in town to visit the National Park and this was a great "home base" for us. Very comfy bed as well!
We thought we had to print a parking pass which was a bit tricky in downtown Gatlinburg - but there were two passes when we arrived waiting for us in the unit.
Very relaxing cozy condo. Slept great! The walk down to the strip was ok but returning is uphill and flight of steps back up to condo was challenging and we are fit! Overall, a very nice place to stay.
