About this property
5⭐ location in Gatlinburg 3Bd/3Bth ~ Best Location ~ 5 Minute Walk to Downtown
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!
"Downtown Creekside III" Is a Completely Renovated 5* Downtown Property that cannot be beat.
This 3-Level townhouse is approximately 800 steps from Traffic Light # 6, where you'll find the new Anakeesta, Aquarium of the Smokies, Pancake Pantry, Blake Shelton and the Ryman's Ole Red Restaurant / Bar concert venue. At "Downtown Creekside III" you'll find yourself in the middle of all the downtown action of the Gatlinburg Strip.
You are only steps away from multiple Restaurants, Mountain Coaster Rides, the Guinness World Records Museum, Zip Lines, Mini Golf, Shops, Tennis, Arcades and much, much more.
Should you be too tuckered out from a day of fishing, skiing, hiking, or golfing to walk any farther than absolutely necessary, "Downtown Creekside III" is located on the Trolley Stop route, making it easy to navigate without the hassle of driving!
Thanks to its leafy, bucolic setting near the flowing waters of Baskin's Creek, you'll feel it peacefully distant from the hubbub of the Gatlinburg action.
Location isn't the only thing "Downtown Creekside III" has going for it. Airy, spacious, and professionally decorated, "Downtown Creekside III" has 2 King Bedrooms, a Queen Bedroom in the partially enclosed private loft, plus a Queen Sleeper Sofa, that makes easy sleeping arrangements that will accommodate up to 8 people.
Each of the 3 levels has its own private bedroom, private bathroom, luxury bedding, and a flat-panel TV. The lower and main level bedrooms are furnished with King Beds, making "Downtown Creekside III" a great option if you're traveling with another couple, family or friends.
The loft level, which is partially enclosed and private, houses a queen-size bed, and is a great place for kids to hang out or to do some gaming. You'll arrive to find the beds freshly made and the bathrooms stocked with professionally laundered linens and never a need to bring your own. In fact, you can pack light as "Downtown Creekside III" has its own Washer and Dryer for your convenience.
In addition to the Master Bedroom, the main level of "Downtown Creekside III" includes an open-plan Living Room, Dining area, and Kitchen. With its double-height ceiling and causally elegant furnishings, the living area is a wonderful space for kicking back and relaxing.
In the Winter, everyone can gather around the Wood-Burning Fireplace and toast marshmallows while watching a favorite program on the 50” flat-screen, Smart TV. In the Summertime, you’ll love stretching out on the sofa to catch up on your reading, or post photos of the Great Smoky Mountains to your social media...(yes, "Downtown Creekside III" has Free Wi-Fi & Web Access, along with Cable, HD Smart TV, and DVD Players.)
When you stay at "Downtown Creekside III", you’ll have scores of Restaurants—Steakhouses, Barbecue joints, Seafood eateries, even Tennessee's oldest pancake house—practically at your doorstep. Sometimes though, nothing beats a home-cooked "Downtown Creekside III" has a fully equipped kitchen that awaits you. From the full-size stainless-steel refrigerator/freezer/ice-maker, to the indispensable coffeemaker and microwave, not to mention cookware and ’ll find everything you need, whether you’re whipping up a holiday meal or simply reheating the previous night’s doggy bag.
After dinner, you can enjoy drinks out on the screened-in porch or on the open deck, where you can enjoy the mountain breeze rustling through the trees, along with the sights and sounds of the Great Smoky Mountains. During the summer months, you can also take advantage of the Gatlinburg Village Swimming Pool, just a hop, skip, and jump from your front door. Want more of a workout? The all new Anakeesta Mountain Outdoor Family Adventure is now open with multiple activities for the whole family. Also, the Ober Gatlinburg Amusement Park and Ski Area are only a few miles away, as is the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, where you can hike, bike, fish, or go horseback riding. On the other hand, if shopping is your idea of exercise, you’ll love the Gatlinburg Arts and Crafts Loop, an 8-mile trail of more than 100 galleries, studios, and craft shops.
Catch the Trolley right out front to enjoy a family day with the kids at one of America's favorite theme parks. Also, just a short drive away in Pigeon Forge, Tanger Outlet Mall offers bargains galore with over 175 name brand outlet stores. If you're interested in a late night drink or concert, the Ole Red Restaurant/Bar owned by Blake Shelton and the Ryman, features a great Adult setting for entertainment.
All this and more is just outside your door when you stay at "Downtown Creekside III." Should you desire to just spend a day doing nothing more than sitting on a rocker listening to songbirds, reading that book you never have time to open at home, or just treating yourself to an afternoon nap, "Downtown Creekside III" is a delightful place to laze and luxuriate. Community Pools are Seasonal

This unit is a VERY clean property in a great location. Easy to walk downtown or hop on the trolley. The pool was nice after a long day in the heat (but you’ll need to bring pool towels, we didn’t see any there). The beds were all very comfortable also. We saw a few bears wandering around the complex throughout the week, which was fun to see. While this unit is great for families due to the multiple bedrooms/bathrooms, I would urge caution if there are toddlers or crawling babies due to the two sets of stairs. We would stay here again.

I would highly recommend this property. There was so much room. We loved relaxing after our big hikes out on the screen porch. It was an easy walk to downtown. We even got to see a bear in the parking lot!

Great location! 10 min walk to downtown. House is beautiful and plenty of space! Everyone kind of had their own floor. Parking was easy and neighborhood quiet and saw a few bears!

Everything was great about the check in and check out process. The condo was neat and clean. Screened in porch was a great addition. The only dissatisfying thing was the shower water pressure in the bathroom on the main level.

Property was very clean. The location to downtown was perfect. We walked everywhere and had a great time. Furniture is a little worn in some cases such as the recliner in the living room. The sunroom was great but the outside deck had some questionable boards that were a little loose and appeared dry rotted so we did not use. The upstairs bedroom does not have a door. It is a loft so just keep in mind. The separate heater/ac unit in the upstairs bedroom needs some work as it made constant rattling noise. Turned it off, opened window and turned up the ceiling fan and we were fine. Honestly those were my only areas of concern or critics. Overall we really enjoyed ourselves and loved the property. Would definitely rent again.

It was exactly as advertised. We thoroughly enjoyed walking down to the strip and then being able to go back and rest for a bit before going back down. We even got to see a Momma Bear and 4 cubs as we were coming back from getting donuts at the Donut Friar!

Great to hear about your trip, my family too likes walking to the Donut Friar for coffee and donuts! Please come back anytime.

Charles was SUPER responsive and made sure our stay was perfect. The townhouse was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Great location with an easy walk into downtown Gatlinburg or short walk to Anakeesta. Being able to walk everywhere in Gatlinburg is priceless with the number of cars coming thru and the price of parking.

Overall, it was a pretty good unit, but a few things that need attention would have made it a 5 star stay. The pull-out couch was pretty gross so we opted not to use it, which was inconvenient. You need at least one extra pillow in the unit for anyone using the couch for sleep space. The living room rug was also pretty dirty. The kitchen sink drain needs to be unclogged, and the kitchen trash can needs to be replaced. If you’re not going to have a working ice maker in the freezer, the ice trays should have been filled and ready for use. We ran out of toilet paper and garbage bags as well.

Thanks for choosing us. We strive daily for perfect stays for our guests. It's not typical us hearing some of these comments. I will get with our team immediately and address any issues. I am assuming the Ice Maker just needed to be turned on. There are extra pillows and linens in the closet and drawers. As always if our guests need anything just reach out and ask and we will address all items immediately.
