Thank you for your kind words! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay and found our location convenient, especially being close to the convention center. We hope to welcome you back soon for another great experience in Gatlinburg! Cathy & Glen
Cathy was a fantastic Host, she answered all my questions. The condo was clean, fully stocked and so comfy, we loved the decor. The location is very good, just be sure to ask how to get street level by avoiding the steep driveway to condo. We enjoyed our trip so much.
Great, clean property. Excellent location. Didn’t know about the elevator to get to the street level until the end of trip. Hard walking up hill. Just needs a little more information in the unit regarding the area. Recommendations etc.
This was our second time renting from Cathy and Glen. Both rentals were absolutely amazing! There are no other rental like these on the strip. TVs had the best picture I’ve ever seen. Actually had the pleasure to meet Glen while packing our car to leave. I told him our 85 year old mother loves the first floor convenience but can’t wait to try other condos in the building he told me about. He was extremely kind and helpful.

About the host
Hosted by Cathy & Glen
We’re passionate about creating a truly elevated and exclusive stay in Gatlinburg, designed for guests who value privacy, comfort, and thoughtful detail. Inspired by the natural beauty and refined charm of the Smokies, our space is curated to feel both sophisticated and inviting.
We spend much of our time enjoying the quieter, more scenic side of the area—especially within Great Smoky Mountains National Park—and seeking out the best local experiences, from upscale dining to hidden gems. That perspective shapes how we host and the level of experience we strive to provide.
Our approach is intentionally personal and detail-driven. Every element of your stay is designed to feel seamless—from a meticulously prepared space to smooth arrival and attentive, yet unobtrusive, communication. We focus on creating an environment where guests can fully relax, unwind, and enjoy a sense of quiet luxury.
We also offer tailored recommendations based on your preferences, whether you’re looking for refined dining, unique experiences, or a more private way to explore Gatlinburg. Our goal is to provide more than just accommodations—we aim to deliver a stay that feels curated, comfortable, and distinctly memorable.
Why they chose this property
We chose downtown Gatlinburg for its rare ability to offer both vibrant energy and refined convenience in one of the most scenic settings in the country. Being in the heart of town allows guests to enjoy a fully walkable experience—steps from curated dining, boutique shopping, and premier attractions—without the need to navigate traffic or parking. It’s a level of ease that elevates the entire stay.
The scene is dynamic yet inviting. During the day, the Parkway is alive with activity—guests exploring local galleries, enjoying cafés, and taking in the atmosphere of a true mountain destination. As evening sets in, the tone shifts to something more intimate, with soft lighting, mountain air, and a relaxed pace that feels both polished and welcoming.
What makes this neighborhood truly exceptional is its seamless connection to nature. Just minutes away lies Great Smoky Mountains National Park, where guests can experience peaceful trails, sweeping vistas, and the quiet beauty of the Smokies. It’s a unique contrast—spending the morning immersed in nature, then returning to a sophisticated, walkable downtown for dining and entertainment.
What we enjoy most is this balance of accessibility and escape. Guests have the freedom to design their stay exactly as they wish—whether that means a full day of exploration or a slower, more relaxed pace with everything close at hand. It’s this combination of location, atmosphere, and effortless convenience that makes downtown Gatlinburg not just desirable, but truly exceptional.
What makes this property unique
Summit Manor stands out for its rare combination of location, comfort, and an elevated guest experience in the heart of Gatlinburg. While many properties require driving, this condo places you steps from the Parkway—allowing you to walk to dining, attractions, and entertainment with ease, then return to a quiet, comfortable retreat.
What makes this property truly unique is how it balances convenience with a sense of calm. Despite being in downtown, the space offers a more relaxed, private atmosphere—giving guests the best of both worlds: immediate access to everything, with the ability to unwind in peace.
Summit Manor was designed with both comfort and functionality in mind. The layout provides ideal separation between bedrooms, making it perfect for couples, families, or small groups traveling together. Thoughtful touches—from a fully equipped kitchen to a welcoming living space—create an environment that feels both polished and inviting.
Another standout feature is its proximity to nature. Within minutes, guests can access Great Smoky Mountains National Park, making it easy to blend outdoor adventure with a refined downtown stay.
What truly sets Summit Manor apart, however, is the overall experience. It’s not just a place to stay—it’s a space designed for ease, walkability, and comfort, allowing guests to fully enjoy Gatlinburg without compromise. Whether you’re here to explore, relax, or do a bit of both, this property offers a seamless and memorable stay in the most desirable locations in town.
