Top neighborhoods in Gatlinburg

A panoramic view of downtown Gatlinburg, Tennessee

Downtown Gatlinburg

Downtown Gatlinburg bursts with family-friendly fun at every turn. The neon-lit Parkway buzzes with Ripley's attractions, arcades, and mini-golf courses against a stunning Smoky Mountain backdrop. Stroll between taffy shops and moonshine distilleries while mountain views peek between buildings. SkyLift and Anakeesta offer treetop adventures for those seeking heights and sights. Hotels with mountain-themed décor sit just minutes from the action. Grab pancakes at breakfast houses or sample local BBQ as you explore. The trolley connects major spots during peak seasons, but most visitors prefer discovering the pedestrian-friendly strip on foot.

Chalet Village

Chalet Village offers the perfect mountain escape with rustic wooden cabins tucked into the forested hills above Gatlinburg. Your mornings start with misty mountain views from a private deck, while evenings mean soaking in a hot tub under the stars. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park sits practically at your doorstep, with hiking trails and wildlife just minutes away. Most cabins come with full kitchens for cozy home-cooked meals after exploring. Downtown Gatlinburg's restaurants and shops are just a short drive down winding mountain roads. You'll definitely need a car to get around these peaceful, secluded hills where the only sounds are the whispers of the forest.

Chalet Village North

Perched above Gatlinburg, Chalet Village North delivers the mountain retreat of your dreams without the downtown commotion. Rustic log cabins and sleek chalets hide among dense forests, each with private hot tubs and killer views. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park sits right at your doorstep, perfect for hikers, wildlife spotters, and anyone who loves a good sunrise through the misty trees. You'll need wheels to get around these winding mountain roads since there's no public transit up here. The trade-off? Total peace after dark and space to breathe. Restaurants and shopping require a quick 10-minute drive to downtown, but most rentals come with fully-equipped kitchens for cozy nights in.
