celebrating 54 Years Of Memories
in The Smoky Mountains
a place where life's sweetest stories are written
Since 1972, Mountain Laurel Chalets has been welcoming families, couples, and groups to the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains. What started as a dream shared by Dot and Ralph Egli has grown into something we’re genuinely proud of — a collection of 95+ hand-selected cabins and chalets in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, managed with the same warmth and care that’s defined us from the very beginning.
Nestled right at the entrance to Great Smoky Mountains National Park, our properties are more than just a place to sleep — they’re the backdrop for the moments that matter most. Birthday celebrations. Anniversary escapes. Family reunions where cousins who haven’t seen each other in years end up staying up too late on the deck, laughing under the stars. We’ve been a part of those stories for over five decades, and we don’t take that lightly.
Our reputation is built on three things: family, service, and generosity. Whether you’re booking a cozy chalet for two, a pet-friendly cabin in Pigeon Forge, a large-group property for a multigenerational reunion, or one of our signature 100 Collection™ properties — our most elevated, amenity-rich cabins — you’ll find the same commitment to exceeding your expectations at every turn. Hot tubs, fire pits, theater rooms, mountain views, EV charging, and more: we have over 95 vacation rentals ready to make your Smoky Mountain trip truly unforgettable.
Come experience the Mountain Laurel Chalets difference for yourself. Browse our full collection of Smoky Mountains cabins and find the one that feels like it was made for your family. We’d love to be part of your next great memory.
