LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! 2 bedroom (each with queen size bed plus queen size sleeper sofa), 1 1/2 bath Gatlinburg chalet located just 4 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg/Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

4 people maximum. Free wi-fi. 15 minute drive to action-packed Pigeon Forge. Very clean and private with all the comforts of home.

Chalet offers 4 person hot tub (includes spa towels and robes) and air hockey table. Sleeps 2-4 maximum.

Lover's Loft chalet is close enough to enjoy all that Gatlinburg has to offer yet far enough away to enjoy the solitude and serenity of the mountains. Our guests come to Lover's Loft to celebrate their honeymoon and return for their wedding anniversary and eventually to bring their own children. We hope your family makes wonderful memories of the Smokies as we have. This is our home away from home.

Perfect location! Just a 4 minute drive from downtown Gatlinburg or the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

Car was vandalized by bears during the trip, febreeze and keep your doors locked at all times. You’ll have to use your personal vehicle to take your trash to the dump site a half mile away from the cabin. The driveway is extremely steep I’d advise to come in a car with high ground clearance and four or all wheel drive.

We have been renting our home for over 30 years. You are the first person I will not rent to again. Cleaning crew informed us that you smoked in our home. Cleaning crew also informed us that you broke (without informing us) a sliding glass door.

The cabin was kept ready for us and the place was clean and tidy. The cabin is located on the Ober mountain drive itself so it was pretty close to all the attractions in Gatlinburg and NP. The cabin has a hot tub and an air hockey table to enjoy as a family. We reached out to Cathy and she was super responsive and answered all our queries promptly. We had a wonderful stay and a blast of a time.

About the host

Hosted by Cathy Janszen

Host profile image
We are a family of four from Cincinnati, Ohio. We fell in love with the Smokies many years ago and love going to the chalet any chance we can get. We love all the seasons the Smokies have to offer. We have plenty of hiking suggestions and what to see and do in Gatlinburg!

Why they chose this property

We chose to buy in Gatlinburg because we love to hike in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Our chalet is just 4 minutes from the National Park/ downtown Gatlinburg. Our kids each took their first hike in the Smokies when they were just 2 months old. Gatlinburg is such a family place and we have enjoyed numerous vacations with our children.

What makes this property unique

We are close to everything!!
