Pros & cons here. Condo is as beautiful as pictured, was extremely clean & kitchen was fully equipped for any type of meal you'd want to prepare! Appreciated welcoming water & snacks. Really enjoyed bonus of robes and slippers to wear during stay! Be aware you are going to the top of huge mountain. Road is VERY steep & VERY winding & FRIGHTENING to drive up & down!! Most of it is without guardrails and shoulders. After a couple days & finding optional route on Google maps, we kind of got used to it but still suggest always returning before dark. Balcony does not have view of Smokey Mountains. You see woods behind unit. If you walk around the complex you will see other units have gorgeous mountain views. During our 7 day stay construction was happening on nearby buildings. Our view included scaffolding, materials & debris, some blew onto balcony. During the day workers talked, hammered, used power tools, played music, etc. Not peaceful. Luckily just 2 workers, music not blaring & we were out most days. Beginning of stay seemed to be a family with an energetic child above us. Could hear talking, walking & running. Next appeared to be a single individual that moved furniture around & dropped heavy objects overhead at odd hours of night. Had some sleepless nights. Not peaceful. Bring earplugs. Loved Gatlinburg! Great people & activities! Once down mountain, close to everything. Park free at Visitor Center & use free Trolley to get around. If not, you pay for parking Downtown.
