Perfect home away from home
My husband and I stayed here for a week to celebrate our 10 year anniversary while visiting Gatlinburg. It was absolutely perfect. Everything was clean and felt nice. Check in process was very simple as was check out. It’s close to downtown but still far enough to feel like you’re away from all the hustle and bustle. We would absolutely love to stay here when we decide to visit the area again.

Great place, great location!
Stayed here for an anniversary trip. The home was super easy to get to and to check in! Home was super clean with everything you need to start out with! Hot tub, which is where we mainly stayed, was wonderful and relaxing! Can’t recommend this property enough. If I had to think of a con, it would be that the homes were very close to each other. We didn’t mind this though because it was exceptionally quiet. Will stay here again!!

This was the perfect cottage. Description is exact. Communication with rental company was always fast responses. Very clean & spacious. The decor was modern, rustic & nice. Beds & furniture was comfy. Convenient to town. Could walk if you wanted, we chose not to. But also far enough away that you don't get road noise or noise from excitement of town. We will definitely see if available on future trips!!

Cozy and Inviting Vacation Home
From the moment we walked in the home invited us in for a great vacation week. My wife who recently had knee replacement surgery found this home easy to navigate. Furniture was comfy and supported her in her relaxation and recovery. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment and was clean and open. The location was 2ish blocks off the strip in Downtown and comes out right at Annakeesta and Ole Red so relatively on the eastern side of town. RedDoor was very helpful and communicative so everything on that end flowed easily into having a great week away from home. We will most definitely make another trip to this little cluster of homes again.

Very clean, loved the art & decor! 3 minute walk to get breakfast. Enjoyed saving money on parking and opted to walk a few times instead. Comfortable beds and very quiet surroundings. Also had fun making s’mores and relaxing in the hot tub.

Couples Weekend
My husband and I traveled to Gatlinburg with another couple (our best friends) to celebrate our 8 year wedding anniversary. The cottage was comfortable, clean and really cute. There was space for our two vehicles for parking and we weren’t far from the strip of downtown Gatlinburg, although we wouldn’t recommend walking (it’s far and the only downside). We loved it and will keep it mind for future travels!

Darling Downtown Dolly
Downtown Dolly had all the amenities we could have wanted for our stay. Communication with our host was top notch, and the listing was very clear & complete. This was a motorcycle trip and we trailered two touring bikes, so parking took some creativity with a F150, 12' trailer, and two full-sized motorcycles. The location is a right turn at the stop sign off a side road which was unclear via GPS app upon our after dark arrival. The 'driveway' is shared with three other properties with a total of 10 parking spots; simply be aware of this challenge if you are coming with additional baggage. All in all, we would stay at Downtown Dolly again, but will not be returning to Gatlinburg, TN. I was here about 10 years ago and it has changed drastically in that time, and not necessarily for the better. There is a new Italian restaurant in the same location where "Taste of Italy" once was (in the same parking lot as Food Lion off East Parkway) that we highly recommend. Also, don't miss Crockett's 1875 Breakfast Camp, just be sure to join the waitlist on their website when you're planning your visit - it'll save you a lot of time in line.

Downtown Dolly
The house was exactly like it said online. Clean, cozy, and comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet. We loved the porches and the back patio with the hot tub. My only suggestion is to please put in your description that the trolley stop is the next street over and that the walk to downtown Gatlinburg is down, then back up, hill. A little far for older people. Otherwise, we would definitely stay here again.

The house was cozy, and a comfortable for 5. The hot tub and outdoor area is a nice place to relax after a lot of downtown walking. There amenities of home are fabulous. We did drive to downtown, because Nana didn’t want to walk, but it is doable. However, the downtown parking lot is convenient, and made it nice since it was rainy. Overall, it is a great place to stay while in Gatlinburg.

Downtown Dolly Visit
Nice property, a bit removed from the hustle of the main town attractions but that's exactly what we needed. Very convenient to Arrowmont via the back entrance. Houses are pretty close together which is fine when the other guests are also wanting a somewhat quiet place, not so much though when they're looking for a place where they can yell at their kids. Bedrooms are spacious, bathrooms are nice, and the downstairs kitchen/dining/living area works well. Hot tub seemed to be clean and well kept, but beware the poison ivy growing among the Virginia Creeper on the hillside directly behind it! (We recognized it before anyone got into it). Bedrooms are not very dark at night because of surrounding lights and there is some road noise, but for a few nights it was more than fine.
