The Neighborhood:
Experience your own mountaintop adventure right from downtown. Soar to the top of Anakeesta Mountain on a one-of-a-kind Chondola. Walk across the longest pedestrian Skybridge in North America. Ride the Ober Gatlinburg Aerial Tram to a mountain of fun. However, these popular attractions barely scratch the surface of what Gatlinburg has to offer in the outdoors.
Families, friends, and couples come to Gatlinburg to enjoy it all. With ziplines and whitewater rafting, world-class golf and fishing, and 800 miles of hiking trails in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Gatlinburg is one of America’s premier outdoor destinations. Biking, bird watching, and horseback riding are also recommended activities to try while you’re outside in Gatlinburg.
Getting Around:
This home is located near the top of a mountain and has spectacular views! Due to its location, it does have a very steep driveway which may impact your ability to navigate your car up the drive to the home based on weather. We strongly suggest having a 4-wheel drive vehicle. In inclimate weather and during winter months, we strongly recommend the use of snow or chained tires. Unfortunately, we cannot offer refunds should vehicles not be able to access the home.
This driveway is not suitable for guests traveling with busses, RV's, or campers.
Should weather or a driven vehicle prohibit you from using the driveway, there is a flat natural parking area halfway up the long drive. If you choose to walk up the driveway, you assume your own risk of fall or injury.
