I've read several reviews on this property before booking it. My family of 4 stayed in a studio w/loft. It was plenty of room. The two boys loved being in the loft and had a great time just playing on the spiral staircase. The decorations looked as if they had went to the goodwill and just got a bunch of... More

Spent a week on a TAN vacation. Studio apt was big enough for the two of us. Trips up and down the mountain were steep & windy but as bad as some reviews indicate. View was spectacular, weather great. Playing Gatlinburg Golf Course was challenging and fun. CON: traffic jams the norm and wall to wall people on the sidewalks.... More

We stayed at the summit for new years. The drive up is a little scary but once you are there the view is worth it. The room was clean and was perfect for my fiance and myself. We are thinking of coming back with some friends next time. Overall it was a great trip!

If you are looking for a great value property this is it! Condos are small but arranged well and views from the property are unmatched. Steep drive in winter but close to Ski area and accessible to downtown Gatlinburg with a short drive. Staff is always very friendly and helpful.

My family of 12 stayed in 2 condos at the summit for 9 days. Granted we stayed in 2 that were in our time share, so they did have some problems that didn't reflect on the Summit. First off, take the time to THINK ABOUT WHERE YOUR ARE STAYING! Your in the mountains. duh..soooo. the drive is straight up, scary,... More

Just returned from Gatlinberg and the fall was brilliant such beauty the view from the summit was fantastic. we have been staying there for our trips for about 15yrs and it is getting older but still very nice each unit is indivually owned some take better care than others, check your unit before unpacking and if not happy request another.

My little family have come to the Summit off and on for the last 15yrs. It is a trade off. By no means is it quick and easy to get to. However once you are there all that you hear is yourself making a "Sigh or relief". You do not hear crowds or feel that need to escape that is... More

Its a great room once you go there for the price we paid.It was far better than the photos shown. The tough part is getting there for the first time especially if you are driving after dark. After couple of times we figured that out. Its pretty much 4 roads you need to remember and be on them. From gatlinburg... More

We actually rented my friends condo for a reasonable rate. But I just want to mention a few points. The bad- the drive is horrible and couldn't imagine doing it in the dark. You literally feel like you are on a rollcoaster that never goes down. The good- beautiful location, great facilities, nice pool, quiet, not a busy place, and... More

We stayed for 4 nites just recently. The condo was clean and cozy. We had a beautiful view of Gatlinburg. There was a bear that payed a visit each day! My family really enjoyed our stay and we will be back! The indoor pool is okay if you like chlorine filled rooms as most indoor pools smell like. The outdoor... More
