Great location with beautiful view. We could sit on the deck (yes, even on a rainy day) and enjoy the mountains. Maintenance was very responsive to our couple of minor issues.Plan on bears and keep your doors locked. We seem to have been frequented by bears every day. Not aggressive beyond trying to get in the cars (no damage) and grill drip trays. A true highlight.

Thank you so much! We are so thrilled to hear that Laurel Lodge delivered such a wonderful stay! A great location, beautiful mountain views that were enjoyable rain or shine from that deck, and a maintenance team that was right there to take care of your minor issues quickly -- that is exactly what we strive for!
And daily bear visits trying their luck with the cars and grill drip trays sounds like the full Smoky Mountain experience! We are so glad there was no damage and that it turned out to be a true highlight of your trip rather than a headache. You are absolutely right that keeping those doors locked is always the best policy in bear country!
We would love to welcome you back, whether at Laurel Lodge or one of our other cabins, the next time the Smokies are calling your name. We hope to see you back in Gatlinburg very soon!
Everything was great! We loved that each room had it's own bathroom and even had small toiletries.

Thank you so much! We are so thrilled to hear that everything was great at Laurel Lodge! Having each room with its own private bathroom is such a wonderful feature for groups and we are so glad that little touch of having toiletries ready and waiting made the experience feel even more special and well thought out for your stay.
We would love to welcome you back -- whether at Laurel Lodge or one of our other cabins -- the next time the Smokies are calling your name. We hope to see you back in Gatlinburg very soon!
Thank you so much! We are so glad to hear that Laurel Lodge was a great stay and we love that you got to experience some of the Smokies most famous residents during your visit! You make such an important point about locking your car doors -- those bears are incredibly smart and persistent and that is always one of our top tips for guests staying in the area. We truly appreciate you passing that along for future guests!
We always strive for a perfect 10 out of 10 experience and we would love the opportunity to welcome you back -- whether at Laurel Lodge or one of our other cabins -- and to earn that extra two points on your next visit! We hope to see you back in Gatlinburg very soon!
Perfect cabin for large groups. The main selling point for me was the 12 ensuites…no one had to share a bathroom! The deck was large enough for the whole family and the view of Mt. Le Conte was amazing! We will definitely book this property again!

Thank you so much! We are so thrilled to hear that Laurel Lodge was such a perfect fit for your large group! Twelve ensuites meaning absolutely no shared bathrooms is truly one of the most special features of that property and we are so glad that made such a difference for everyone in your group -- that kind of comfort and privacy is so important when traveling together!
A deck large enough for the whole family and that stunning view of Mt. Le Conte -- it really does not get much better than that in the Smokies and we are so happy it left such a lasting impression!
Knowing that you will definitely book again means the world to us and we would love to welcome your whole group back -- whether at Laurel Lodge or one of our other cabins -- the next time the Smokies are calling your name. We hope to see you back in Gatlinburg very soon!
The house is beautiful, and has tons of space for everyone. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you could need. Definitely the best kitchen of all the homes I have stayed in.
This was an excellent location and facility for 3 generations to gather. There was plenty of space with separate rooms and private bathrooms. We especially appreciated the large open spaces with plenty of seating in the common areas.

Hi Kimberly! Thank you for the 5 Star Review! Laurel Lodge is an amazing cabin! Come back and see us!
Absolutely amazing property! Great view, amazing space, stocked with everything you’d need for cooking! We had a great weekend here. Roads up to the house were narrow but we were still able to get our larger cars up. Amazing weekend!!

Thank you for choosing Mountain Laurel Chalets! Come back and see us!
We enjoyed Laurel Lodge. Beautiful space, great appliances and layout.We had the ages of 90-9 months and everyone had a good time. There were black bears, mostly entertaining once we saw one. As long as cars are free of food are locked and you don’t store food on the deck you’re good. We do wish there had been a Costco or Sam’s closer.Holston’s Catering was great!

Thank you so much! We absolutely love hearing that Laurel Lodge was able to accommodate such a wonderful range of ages -- from 90 years young all the way down to 9 months old is truly a full family gathering and we are so thrilled that everyone had a great time!
A beautiful space, great appliances, and a layout that works for the whole family is exactly what we strive for and it means so much to hear that it all came together so well for your group. And we are so glad the black bears provided some entertainment during your stay -- your tips about keeping cars locked and food stored safely are spot on and so helpful for future guests!
We will also make note of the Costco and Sam's Club feedback -- we completely understand how helpful those stores are when stocking up for a large group and we appreciate you sharing that! In the meantime we are so glad Holston's Catering was able to step in and take great care of everyone!
We would love to welcome your whole family back -- whether at Laurel Lodge or one of our other cabins -- the next time the Smokies are calling your name. We hope to see you back in Gatlinburg very soon!
We stayed here for our staff retreat. It was perfect. Everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom. The common spaces were great for our meetings, free time, and meals. It was close to Gatlinburg but felt like we were living in the trees. The house is beautiful and updated. I have already booked us for next year.
This is the 2nd stay for our staff of 12. The home is perfect for our annual staff retreats. We love the individual bedrooms with bathrooms, the huge kitchen and living space and the movie room. It's close to town but feels like living in the trees.The outdoor space is great too but we had bear friends hanging out around the house so we didn't use that too much.

We are happy to hear that you had a great time! Hope you got some great pictures of your bear friends! Looking forward to seeing you again next time!
Lots of bedrooms, comfortable beds, each bedroom has its own bathroom. Lovely deck with rocking chairs, beautiful views of mountains and woods. Saw a black bear nearby. Large well-equipped kitchen and good-sized gathering rooms for dining, sitting and nice theater room seating 18 plus bean bag chairs. Plenty of space to park. Everyone loved it!

We had a wonderful time on our yearly "In Memory of Josh Lawhorn" trip. We loved the fact the lodge held noise well. Two fridges and freezer made planning for food perfect. Gas grill is so nice. Parking for 10 cars can be hard, but you work with what the hill provides. Will hopefully use this cabin again next year, unless our group grows.

Thanks for the review and we are proud to host your memorial get together. "Held noise well" tells me you had a rocking good time! With a full house and rooms to be together, or bedrooms to be apart, how can it not be a guaranteed success! If your group grows, here an idea. We have a three bedroom called "Camelot" just a through steps through the woods, so room to grow! We hope to see you in the mountains again soon.
From my first phone conversation to my last phone call to Ms. Pam, I've felt welcomed. My family and I really enjoyed the space and the views. The house was really spacious enough for us to enjoy every square inch. Let's get into the location! We'll it was the travel up the mountain for me. That was the scariest ride ever. Then the day after Christmas we went out into town. It started to snow so that made the travel back up the mountain even more scary. Saying all of that to say beautiful house, scary drive to it.
Has a little bit of everything for large groups - large, functional kitchen; 12 bedrooms, each with a private bathroom; multiple sitting areas with TVs as well as the theater room; deck that can accommodate a large group; plenty of dining space; proximity to Gatlinburg, etc.
We would probably stay there again. Here are our nit picks:
1. If you are bringing a large conversion van, you will struggle on the road/driveway getting to the chalet. Minivans and trucks were fine.
2. It could use a couple more game/activity options. Has a pool table, which we used heavily, and a shuffle board which we did not. The shuffle board table is a bit useless as the pucks do not slide for anything. Adding an arcade game or a ping pong table would be awesome.
3. We had one maintenance issue that became an annoyance. Our second day (of five days total), the fridge seal popped off and would not allow the fridge door to stay closed. It looked like this had happened frequently before and had been fixed with spit and hope. We called the maintenance line and were told a worker would be out the next morning to fix it. They never came and we got no communication whatsoever the rest of the trip. We used a chair propped against the door to keep it closed.
The cabin and everything was amazing. Can’t recommend this place enough!

This is our second time renting this home for a family reunion. The setup and condition of the house are perfect for our family. It has been renovated since we last visited. The kitchen setup is perfect with double ovens/cooktops/dishwashers/coffee makers/trash cans and plenty of cookware, utensils, and cups. The expanded deck is really nice but we did wish there were a few more chairs on the deck. The kids loved the theater room, the internet was fast, and the TVs had cable plus smart capabilities for streaming. With the pool table and provided games we could have spent the whole time in the house and been very happy. We were happy to find the grills are now up on the deck (for bear safety) and we were supplied with ample propane for our stay. Everyone at Mountain Laurel Chalets was wonderful to work with and I would happily rent from them again as they made the entire rental experience easy and were all so nice. The only thing that would prevent us from renting this house again is that the bears are very aggressive about trying to get food from cars and have learned to come by regularly to check if cars are open and also would not leave us alone while we were trying to pack up and leave. I really think the owners should add more substantial fencing around the parking area and also work with the wildlife agency to figure out how to keep the bears off the property. It is clear they know what to do to get what they want (people food) and are willing to be pretty aggressive to get it.

This 12 BR lodge served our extended family of 19 very well. The lodge was a beautiful property. We saw black bear every day we were there, including one on the top deck. One car was broken into by a bear. The only down side was that the ice maker broke mid way thru our stay and was not repaired. We had 4 days without ice.
Response from VrboOwner on 18 July 2023
It is great to know that you all loved your stay at Laurel Lodge! It is a fantastic chalet for people to spend quality time together. We are very sorry about the ice maker, we always want to be good stewards of our guests, and we wish that we could have gotten that fixed for you. It would be great to have you back with us soon!
