Description

Smoky Mountain Memories is the former residence of the founders of Mountain Laurel Chalets, Ralph and Dorothy Egli. The house has been painstakingly transformed into a retreat that honors their continuing legacy and provides the finest in vacation living. As one of the first homes on Ski Mountain, the Egli's were blessed to secure a sizable piece of property that offers a sprawling side yard with fire pit and hot tub and cozy woods. The upper level of the lot offers magnificent views of Mountain LeConte from a large party deck with rocking chairs and a gas grill nearby, plus an occasional bear sighting. Every member of the family will enjoy this vacation estate with a quaint play house.

Upon entering, you immediately feel as if you’ve returned home. The entry hall and sitting area set the mood for relaxation and peace. The open, airy kitchen attracts the culinary artists in your group who will love the sub-zero refrigerator, double ovens and warming drawer. A few more steps takes you into the wood-lined sun room with a wall of windows that frame the beauty of the mountains and a gas fireplace will warm you up on cold nights. Each King bedroom has a large screen Smart TV where you can access Netflix (with your account) and other on-line services, connected to the homes robust WiFi. See the floor plan at the end of the pictures for layout.

The fun starts when you venture downstairs. A theater room with 80” smart TV and 14 leather recliners takes movie night to a new level--or catch the latest ball game with the whole family. If billiards are your thing, hop on into the game room and rack ‘em up! Don’t worry about missing your favorite show because there is another 50” TV and Foosball. Tired from all that excitement? The downstairs sun room/reading room provides yet another opportunity to sit and relax while watching TV or looking for wildlife outside the picture windows that line the wall. Two more king bedrooms downstairs, each with a private bath and television, make up the seven bedrooms, but there is a bonus set of bunk beds in the large bedroom that brings the total the house can sleep to 20.

This house was my favorite of all the houses we have ever rented. We have been doing this family get together for 10 years. Each house had something falling apart or the bathrooms were not really cleaned well. This house was very clean, the beds were very comfortable, the furniture in the house was all in very good condition and the big surprise was the kitchen was well stocked with kitchen tools. We are really hoping to return with our family again

This vacation was one we had been hoping to do for a long time. We wete able to have all of our childten and grandchildren there too. The home was beautiful. It has all of the amenities you could want and an unbeatable too. We all had a great time. There was plenty of room for all of us. We had a problem with the bbq snd some one came to fix it within minutes of our call. We have rented from Mountain Laurel Chalets for quite a few years. Their properties are well kept and their customer service is top rate. Thank all involved in msking this the trip of a lifetime. We'll be back their as soon as we can. By the way, they aren't kidding about the bears. We had visitors everyday. Just keep your distance and you'll be fine.

We are so pleased that you had such a wonderful time Claudia. We appreciate your faithful business over the years.

We are a group of about 18 adults. We travel extensively to houses around the country. We normally stay at a very large modern home with a grand entrance, oversized living room, and very open floorplan. This house was not that, but it was still fantastic! Everyone loved it. I liked how it felt like a homey mountain house but it did not have cheeky trinkets around the house with family photos etc. They did a very good job of making you feel like you were home and in a comfortable cozy space with nicely appointed décor and art that wasn’t cheesy like Cracker Barrel or grandma lived there. The hot tub was separate from the house, a short walk through nice grass. It was not covered with a roof, which we loved, because it made us really enjoy being outside surrounded by nature. The fire pit next to the hot tub was fun (bring firewood). The house was very clean and neat, linens and towels were fresh. There was tiny motel style bar soap in every bathroom. Bring shampoo. There was no squirt hand soap in the whole house. So definitely bring some of that for the kitchen at least. Lots of parking. We fit 3 cars in the driveway directly next to house, end to end. 2 cars fit under carport and we put one perpendicular behind them. Then there is a satellite lot down their driveway about 100 yards where you could fit 3 or 4 cars if needed.

Well Steven, this might be the perfect review, as you are spot on with the goals of the owners and the designers who transformed this home into a warm and inviting vacation home---all the feels of home without the feeling of living in someone else's home. We appreciate your attention to detail in your review and hope to host you again soon!

Wendy, we are thrilled to hear your family enjoyed their time at Smoky Mountain Memories. The house is very comfortable with plenty of room for the entire family and then some. There are enough activities available from the pool table and hot tub, walking trails below the house and even a fire pit in the back yard that people of all ages will keep busy enjoying all the amenities. We hope to see you in the mountains again soon.

If you're looking for a cookie cutter home where everything is new and pristine- this is not the place for you. If you're ok with a few cobwebs and stains on the carpet and a home FILLED with character and love, then this IS the place for you and your group. We absolutely loved the charm and hominess of the Chalet Village. There were a few things that didnt work or broke during our stay and while the app they suggest is completely useless- as soon as the main office heard directly from us of our issues they fixed them promptly. The home was spacious with plenty of room for our group of 20 to spread out and not feel cramped. The beds were incredibly comfortable and clean. We had everything we needed in the kitchen but did bring along a few extra things just based on how much our group eats (second crock pot, griddle and extra cookie sheets). We loved the outside- from the deck with the rocking chairs to the side yard with the hot tub that we used daily. We even encountered a black bear who did indeed open one of our car doors! (They mean it when they tell you to lock your doors- even in the middle of the day!!). If driving on the mountains up steep roads with no railings makes you nervous, you might reconsider this location. But if you're comfortable with it- the views are 100% worth it! We had the best time and would absolutely stay with Mountain Laurel again. *I took one star off for cleanliness just because you can tell that they clean the homes as quickly as possible to turn around for the next group. Inevitably, there were things that were missed. Not enough to bother our group (we can wipe tooth paste off a door handle and handle a few carpet stains) but enough I felt warranted 4/5 stars *As mentioned, we had some issues and tried filling out the form on the app to report them. Don't waste your time. Just call directly down or stop by the main office. Once they knew of our issues they came up right away.

Wow. Thanks for the lengthy review. We do want to exceed your expectations for every visit and we appreciate you telling us about the few cob webs and carpets that need some touching up. We are on it. Glad you found this home unique and full of character for your group of 20.

My family, 19 of us, the youngest 4 yrs to the oldest 60+, thoroughly enjoyed the experience at Smoky Mtn Memories! We loved the spacious interior, the amenities: from the hot tub, to the game room, to the theater, to the washer/dryer, and the scenic views, when available, were spectacular. It misted rain and was foggy much of the time. We even got visited by a bear one morning! He walked across the back deck. I think he may have gotten a whiff of our breakfast cooking! He paused and seemed to decide to keep going after he saw we weren't going to feed him! This was our first mountain experience and even though the steep ride up was scary at first, after getting there, it was worth it! The only suggestion I would make to the owner is to remove the carpet and change or clean their air vents. The vents were filthy and the carpet had dirty spots in some places! We brushed the main intake vent with the broom and the black dust that came out was awful. Many of us have allergies. Other than those two things, I would have given a 5 for cleanliness. Nevertheless, all things considered, it was AWESOME!

Thanks for the review and the bear story. They are very curious creatures and a thrill to see, as long as you are inside and your car is locked! The mountain roads can be a bit tricky at first, but most people adapt quickly. We regret you found a dirty air filter and carpets. We are taking steps to insure that does not happen in the future. We appreciate your comments and look forward to seeing you again soon.

We had 20 family members (3 under 5yrs)stay at Smoky Mtn Memories for 5 days and 4 nights. Because of Covid 19, we stayed in the chalet or in GSMNP the entire time. There was plenty of bedroom space for everyone and the kitchen and dining space worked well. We spent a lot of time on the huge deck and were visited daily by bears hunting for a meal. We had one person always on bear patrol so as to keep the little ones safe. We used the hot tub in the evenings after long hikes and enjoyed the fire pit (although the hot tub top was broken). The kids liked playing in the kids playhouse in the yard. We did have to do some creative parking to get all of the vehicles parked so we didn't block the drive. It was very doable. We had a fabulous time celebrating a 50th birthday! Thank you Mountain Laurel Chalet for your personal attention and genuine interest in our family's comfort.

Thanks for the review and we are glad you enjoyed your time at Smoky Mountain Memories. The bears certainly make their presence known and your strategy for a lookout is definitely a good one. We apologize that the hot tub cover was broken and have the parts coming from California. We love the playhouse too! It was actually used by the owner's children growing up, so there are lots of memories inside. Did you find the second parking area below the yard? There is a path through the woods and up the steps to the yard which make it an easy walk. We hope you had a successful birthday celebration and can come back soon.

Our experience was perfect! The house was clean, well maintained, and well equiped. The unobstructed view of Mt Leconte from the deck and from the kitchen and adjacent sitting room is spectacular. If you have a group large enough to be considering this rental, you should just go ahead and reserve it. Of all the places we have stayed at in the GSM park area over the years, this is among the very best. Only caution is that there was a lot of bear activity during our stay so vigilance is essential. One member of our group forot to lock their car and we found a bear had opened both front doors of the vehicle and had rumaged through the center console to find a small bottle of hand sanitizer, and had also pulled a 12 pack of soda from the car for his/her enjoyment. The bear also tipped over a "bear proof" trash container in the car port area. Regular visitors know that bear activity is normal in this area. To ensure a safe visit, just follow the recommendations provided by Mtn Laurel Chalets and wild life authorities.

Thanks for the review and the referral. It is a magnificent choice for large families or groups of friends and has all the amenities one would want. We appreciate your advise on the bear activity and you are exactly right! Not having any contact with our guests at check-in is making it harder to impress how important locking car doors can be for the safety of our bears, and your car! Always give bears plenty of room and remember, they can out run you! We hope to see you in the mountains again soon.

This is a beautiful updated home! We came to the Smokies to relax and that is exactly what we did. We absolutely loved sitting in the rockers on the porch at any time of day. We had several thrilling bear visits while we were on the porch and enjoyed sunrises and the stars at night. We also enjoyed the theater room, pool table, and loved the hot tub and fire pit- using them almost everyday. Plenty of inside space to kick back and relax as well. All the bedrooms are cozy, comfortable, and baths are all updated. We had 7 people, and because of COVID, we made all our meals here. There were not enough large pots/pans for a large group. And some wine glasses would have been nice. They need to add both. We kept all our trash inside until we left and kept the grill clean because bears were around multiple times a day.

We have stayed in Smoky Mtn Memories for the past four years, and have rented from Moutain Laurel Chalets for several years. We have always found the Staff to be very cordial, very responsive to any requests, and prompt in dealing with any of our concerns. The property is beautiful and well maintained, and probably has one of the best views in that area. We have always said that if we didn't do any thing else, we could just sit on the deck for our whole stay and be perfectly happy. The place is well situated with easy access to the park, town, or Pigonford. The interior is large, well decorated, and easily accommodates a large family.

The house itself was a crowd pleaser with plenty of beds, lots of seating, great areas to congregate, and an impressive theater. Everyone was so pleased with the property that we contemplated making it an annual event. The management company was incredibly responsive to all our questions and requests. Pam was the epitome of helpful.

Thank you so much for your great review. So glad the chalet was perfect for your stay. Hope to see you again soon!

Smoky Mountain Memories was the perfect mountain chalet for our large family. The property was beautiful. The home was super clean and the grounds were very well manicured. We enjoyed making smores by the fire pit and relaxing in the hot tub. The playhouse for the young children is adorable and the timber steps throughout the property were great. We were able to let our children play outside without worrying about them getting hurt on the steep mountain inclines. the bottom floor/game room area was so much fun for the kids and adults, and five master bedrooms was perfect for our group. The windows throughout the home showcased the beautiful view perfectly. The staff at Mt. Laurel Chalets was so friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed this property so much that we wanted to stay an extra night, but unfortunately it wasn't available. This was truly an amazing first class mountain vacation and we cannot wait to visit again!

Thank you so much for your great review of the chalet and kind words about our staff. So happy you enjoyed your stay and look forward to seeing you again in the future.

We booked this property in December to have family time following a college graduation. It is very spacious and accommodated our group of 15 with ease. The property looks just like the pictures in the listing. So nice to have Bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate all. There are four bunks on the lower level in a separate living area that was perfect for the kiddos.The theatre room was a huge hit with our bunch. The view is gorgeous. Unfortunately we were unable to enjoy the outside areas due to the weather but it is super nice. We arrived at dusk and was welcomed with a beautiful lit Christmas tree in the living area off the kitchen. Such a nice touch. The home is very beautiful and welcoming but not pretentious at all. I hope to stay here again and recommend it to all.

Have stayed in Mountain Chalet homes before. Great family vacation home. Only disappointment was we were told there was a decorated tree in home and when we arrived there was a nice tree but only with lights ( not all even working). Could have brought our own ornaments if had only known. Furniture in upstairs family room still looked ok but was pretty saggy when used. Otherwise had a great experience!

We are a small Human Resources team who wanted to go somewhere scenic for our yearly retreat. We could not have picked a better place than Gatlinburg or a better home than Smoky Mtn Memories. The house was beautiful, each room had it's own character and charm. The house was also huge. In addition to the seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms there were several living room and sitting room arears, a theater room and a game room. Our front porch provided us with a view of the mountains that assured me that there is a God. The kitchen had every amenity and we had both a wood burning and gas fireplaces. The bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and the house was immaculate. Each bedroom had a television and although we didn't use them, there was both a fire pit and a hot tub in the backyard. This house is pretty far up and if you are not familiar with the twists and turns of the smoky mountains, I would not suggest going to your cabin at night. We also had some snow and although it made for some great pictures, Our team, being from the south, were kind of unsure of the roads. The Chalet staff was amazing!, some of the kindest people I have ever met. I recommend this property and this rental company to anyone planning a Gatlinburg trip!

Beautiful home with bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone, great media room, and a wonderful kitchen, with every appliance and accessories we needed. (especially the warming drawer) House was very clean with lovely bed linen and furnishings. The views are amazing!!! great setting for photography. Our little ones LOVED the playhouse. We used the hot tub several times and every inch of the house. Access to the national park was very easy, and family enjoyed hiking and snow tubing there. One son even came in early and camped a couple nights. Thanks for the Smoky Mountain Memories!

I have to first say that everything was perfect with respect to the type of cabin, the shape it was in, the service, the view of the mountain, etc. I really have to say I did not feel like "renting a cabin" properly described the experience. It would best be described as spending a beautiful Christmas Holiday in an absolutely gorgeous (spectacular would be better) home. Renting a cabin did not fit. We felt the warmth of being in a wonderful home and felt privileged to do so. the Allison group left on Monday (check out day) planning our next Christmas get together in this very lovely home.
