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.

We hope your family makes wonderful memories of the Smokies as we have. This is our home away from home.

Such a great time in Gatlinburg!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lover's Loft! The convenience of being close to dowtown was really nice! The hot tub and views from the cabin were spectacular! We would highly recommend and will be booking again in the future!

It was ok. Carpet needs cleaned, or better yet, replaced. Missed not having a washer and dryer. Loft bed was comfortable but downstairs bed was not

Best Gatlinburg stay ever
We have stayed many places in Gatlinburg and this one is the best. We loved the big picture windows, the wonderful loft, the fantastic deck and the wonderful hot tub. The best part was the communication with the owners. They were responsive, concerned about our comfort and very helpful with tips and ideas in the city. We loved staying right up the hill from stop #10. Far enough away that it was quiet and private; close enough that getting to town was quick and easy. Highly recommend this great place and we will be back!

Minor items
Everything was great. There were only a few minor items that needed to be tended to. The main one was the coffee maker. Whoever used it last , left too many coffee grounds in it and it really made a nasty cup of coffee with a lot of grounds in it. We finally got it to where it was doing okay. Other minor things were not much to mention. Just tiny things that didn't amount to much. The other main thing was there wasn't any wood to burn and according to the sheet it was supposed to be furnished.

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.

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!!
