Schonblick

This chalet in the Smokies was amazing!! The Schonblick had all the modern comforts, nice little touches everywhere and offered a peaceful escape right in the heart of nature. We saw bears, Gatlinburg city lights in evening and partial mountain views off the deck. My husband and I have stayed in several Mountain Laurel Chalets over the years and both agree this is by far the loveliest one to date! We can't wait to return!

We agree -- Schonblick is WONDERFUL! We're so thankful you had a great visit. Come back soon!!

When we first walked into our chalet, it was absolutely breathtaking! We arrived in the early evening. They had soft music and lighting to welcome us. This place was even more gorgeous than the pictures show. It was a wonderful place to stay, had every comfort imaginable. Perfect for 2 people! We were sad we had to leave it. It is a wonderful retreat that we will definitely stay at again!

Katie W - Posted: 8/25/2024

We had a wonderful time and the cabin was beautiful. Missed seeing the Christmas lights. Didn't want to do the drive up in the dark. First time for us in a cabin and we enjoyed every minute of it.

Mary F - Posted: 1/5/2024

Schonblick exceeded our expectations!!!! The home was even more beautiful than in the gorgeous pictures on line. I will forever remember my birthday trip because of this home. We compliment the owner of the property for the elegant furnishings that also provided comfort. The soaring ceilings, fireplace, and double doors opening to the bedroom were stunning!! The deck view in autumn made my heart sing! Thank you also to the staff of Mountain Laurel Chalets, they are friendly, knowledgeable, and first class. Everyone was awesome to work with!! Thank you all, if we ever return to Gatlinburg it would be pleasure to return to Schonblick.

As always the experience was wonderful. Kitchen was missing baking pans and vegetable peeler. Bears were very abundant. Lol. We will always stay with mt laurel.

Charles W. - Posted: 10/9/2023

Thanks for letting us know about the kitchen supplies; items have a way of wandering off from time to time. :) We'll get those things restocked!

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

Mountain Laurel is our home away from home. We have stayed there for our 17th year now because the staff is friendly and very courteous and take care of our needs. They are family to us and we enjoy everything about Mountain Laurel. We are already planning our next stay.

Billy E. - Posted: 9/7/2023

We have been staying with Mountain Laurel for 30 years and have not been disappointed. The only time we use another rental company is if what we need is not available when we need it. We have over the years recommended Mountain Laurel to friends and family. Staff is always courteous and professional.

Lynn Braud - Posted: 4/28/2023

Me and my hubs and booked this cabin as an anniversary vacation. Prior to our stay the staff reached out to us to see what we were celebrating. When we arrived they had left an ole Smokey chocolate assortment for our anniversary. The house itself was beautiful. Very clean and cozy. Plenty towels and supplies. We cooked while we were there for breakfast and dinner a couple nights. We even got to see some snow while there! It was an absolutely gorgeous view from the back porch. The drive up was a little scary the first time given it was raining pretty hard. But nothing that would stop us from coming back. We both agreed it truly felt like home and this would be the place we would book to come back for our next trip!

F trussell - Posted: 11/1/2022

Me and my fiancé booked this trip as a get away for our anniversary. To say the least, this cabin was just as pictured. Very cozy living area. Fully stocked kitchen, we cooked our own breakfast a few mornings and supper a few nights. Very spacious bathrooms and bedroom. And you cannot forget the GORGEOUS view from the back porch. It snowed while we were there as well, which made the experience even more beautiful. The staff even reached out prior to our arrival date to ask if we were celebrating anything special. As we came in, on the kitchen counter, they had left us a box of ole smoky chocolates and a note wishing us a happy anniversary. The staff was very kind at check in as well. The drive up to the cabin was a little scary the first time, given it was raining and freezing cold, but worth it in the end. This home truly felt like a home away from home and we will most definitely be back! All in all, our first anniversary trip here was very successful!

Zachary parton - Posted: 11/1/2022

This chalet was everything my husband and I needed. Spacious, secluded, yet close to everything! The road up is a winding, curvy trek but worth it. We saw several bears during our stay as well. The staff was very polite and helpful! Would absolutely revisit & stay with Mtn Laurel Chalets!

Heather R. - Posted: 9/13/2022

We arrived really late but found the house with no problems. Very nice place. I would definitely stay again. Only a few cons but nothing that would keep me from staying again. Only 2 wash clothes could use a few more. Stairs to get into house and could be an issue for some people. A musty smell when entering but not in actual living area. Now the good stuff! Very large rooms. Kitchen was very well stocked. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was large and very nice. The 2nd bathroom was a plus. Couch was comfy. Enjoyed the hot tub and deck area. Nice view. Seen a bear on the first morning at the neighbors. Seen another bear a little too close for comfort the next day. He snuck up behind us as we was unloading our car. I got the door shut but not the trunk and he got in it. My husband scared him away but he came back and was in at a safe distance to enjoy watching him. So don't leave car unlocked and watch your surroundings when outside. Loved having all the books to read. Hopefully this place will be available on our next trip. Everyone in the office was so nice too.

We have stayed with Mountain Laurel's Schonblick since 2006. Every time we go back, it seems the owners have redecorated, painted, new furniture, new bed, and excellence maintenance! While there are no dramatic views (except for a sliver of downtown Gatlinburg) we love the feeling of isolation and being in the woods even though we know we have neighbors on the drive in. I love parking directly beneath the house, protected from weather as you load and unload. Driveway has a turnaround, so you don't have to back into infinity, or risk crashing down the mountain! We vacation other places over the years, but if we are staying close to home, we always use Mountain Laurel Chalets. They are super friendly and very thoughtful, they knew it was my wife's birthday, and had a delicious birthday cake, yellow with butter whipped frosting! They definitely did not have to do that, but that's the special care you can expect when staying with them!

This is our 2nd year staying at this chatel and it won't be our last. We just love the set up of this chatel with the comfortable bed,large bathroom and shower and the kitchen and living space. And I love having a carport to keep my jeep out of the elements.

Hi James! It is so good to hear that Schonblick was able to accommodate you, your family, and your Jeep well! We can't wait to host you again here at Mountain Laurel!

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

Had a great week with my wife at Schonblick in early June. Only a couple of bear sightings for us, but they only passed by a time or two. It's a pretty steep walk up & down the stairs with your luggage here so pack lightly! The place could not have been any nicer; new kitchen, new bathrooms, and everything worked except the recliner. (handle is missing). The view to downtown was still viewable in early spring; might be more tree cover by late summer though. And as always, the Mountain Laurel staff was great.

Chris M. - Posted: 6/6/2022

it is so great to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us, Schonblick is the perfect place for a couples mountain stay! Thank you for letting us know about the recliner, we always to have the best for our guests. We would absolutely love to have you back with us soon!

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

My wife and I have stayed in a Mountain Laurel cabins for many years. We always stayed in the same cabin and this year we decided to stay in a different one. The choice to stay in Schonblick was a GREAT choice.We were very pleased with the cabin and the location. You could see downtown Gatlinburg from the porch and it was beautiful at night looking down at all the lights. We also had visitors of bears every day from big ones to cubs. All in all this was a great choice and will be the cabin for our fall getaway. We are already planning it. The staff has never been anything but GREAT. Going to miss Cheryl when she retires. Thanks Mountain Laurel for being our home away from home. See you soon.

Billy E. - Posted: 5/6/2022

Yes! Schonblick is always a great choice if you are looking for a beautiful view that is close to the downtown area. It has a cozy atmosphere inside that will be absolutely perfect for your fall getaway! We are so grateful to you and your wife for being loyal to Mountain Laurel; customers like you are hard to replace!

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

We had stayed in this chalet before but it had been several years. The owner has renovated recently and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. You can see Gatlinburg in the valley below and at night you can see the lights. The roads to the chalet are a little scary but once you are there, you never want to leave.

Sheri M. - Posted: 4/10/2022

Sheri, we are grateful that you enjoyed your stay with us, and that you decided to come back after several years. Schonblick is is perfect for a couples getaway, and inside has a cozy feel that makes for the perfect place to relax. It is in the perfect location to enjoy downtown Gatlinburg during the day, and relax in the chateau at night. We hope to see you back again with us soon at Mountain Laurel!

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

This was a wonderful house with so much space. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this place and would return again.

Schonblick is a fantastic location for a couples getaway in the mountains, and we love that you enjoyed your stay with us! It is great to hear that you would return; we always strive to exceed customers invitations and love every opportunity to do so!

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

We have stayed with Mountain laurel chalets many times over the years, and how we have missed this cabin in those times is beyond us. This is the perfect cabin for a couples getaway. The cabin is roomy, the living room is perfect size, and the Master bathroom is great. The view from the deck is a 4.7 out of 5, just needs some landscaping and it would be perfect also. Being at the end of the road is great and plenty of room to turn around to get back out. We spent mote time at the cabin than we had planned to, just because we loved it so much. Definitely on the top of our list for couples weekend.

Mark Syferd - Posted: 2/1/2022

Mark, we couldn't agree with you more! Glad you found this gem.

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

My wife and I had a great time staying at Schonblick! It snowed a little while we were here (beautiful!) but had no trouble getting to and from the cabin because the roads were treated quickly and efficiently. The cabin was fantastic and just a short drive to Gatlinburg. We will stay here again!

Jason T. - Posted: 1/20/2022

Yes! We love hearing that you loved it enough to stay there again, we are so looking forward to having you back with us! Schonblick is a fantastic cabin for a couples getaway, and you can enjoy a beautiful view of the city from the porch as well. Thank you so much Jason, we are grateful for our customers like you!

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

Beautiful, clean home that was perfect for a post-Christmas getaway. The hot tub was great. The bed was comfortable. Kitchen is equipped with all the appliances and items you may need for cooking at home. We ended up doing that a lot since the drive up the mountain at night is a little scary at times so we tried to be back before dark but the view being up higher was worth it.

Madison D. - Posted: 12/26/2021

Yes Madison! Schonblick is the perfect little chalet for a mountain getaway! We love how cozy the interior is, and it allows for guests to enjoy a relaxing time there. Mountain Laurel wants to provide guests with all the essentials that they need for their vacation, so we are glad you took advantage of that in the kitchen! We would love to have you all back again with us soon!

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

This chalet is exactly as pictured. It was bright, spacious, with a well appointed kitchen. The views were fantastic! It was a bit of an adventure to get to, but worth the trip. I would highly recommend for a couples getaway!

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

Everything was wonderful. The cabin was clean and very well equipped. The staff was awesome, as it turns out our grill was out of propane and they were at the door with a full tank within 15-20 minutes. It was really a great experience, we will do it again!

James C. - Posted: 11/21/2021

Thank you James! We always want to help our guests as best we can, and resolve their issues in a timely manor, so we are glad that we were able to do that for you! It is great to hear that you had such a great experience at Schonblick, and we look forward to having you back with us again.

This was our second time to stay in this particular Chalet. We liked it so much the last time we stayed here that it has easily become our favorite now. We have used Mountain Laurel Chalets quite a bit over the years and like all of their Chalets but this one is our favorite!!

Steven K. - Posted: 11/15/2021

Yay! We are so glad that you loved Schonblick so much that you decided to come back for a second time! We always love having our guests come back year after year and getting to treat them like family each time. This chalet is perfect for a couples getaway, and the cozy feel allows for the perfect relaxing time.

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

It was my husband's birthday. We wanted a nice place in the mountains with a hot tub built for two. This house was perfect. It is at the end of the short road, making it even more private! We brought food and drinks so we only had to leave when we wanted to experience hiking the trails or downtown entertainment. The bed was super comfy. The kitchen was great. The bathtub and shower were amazing. We could not have been more pleased!

Anonymous - Posted: 9/27/2021

We are so glad that you and your husband chose to celebrate his birthday with us, we love being even a small part of those special occasions! You just described exactly why Schonblick is the perfect place for a couples mountain retreat. If you are looking for cozy and quiet, this is the perfect place to enjoy!

We loved our stay 6 years ago and when we decided to come back we didn’t hesitate to look on your website. This time we had a beautiful chalet that I absolutely fell in love with

William S. - Posted: 9/16/2021

We are so glad that you decided to come back and stay with us six years later! You made a great choice with Schonblick, it is the perfect chalet for a relaxing couples weekend in a cozy atmosphere!

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

We really enjoyed staying at Schonblick. The house is big, quiet and spacious.

The only thing I didn't like is the management company, enough so that I would not book with them again.

They are extremely stingy with everything they provide. For example, there was just enough toilet paper to use and exactly one package of laundry detergent - nothing extra. They said that they would provide more if asked, but do I really want to call the management company for a roll of toilet paper?

I also accidentally left two shirts in the property which they, thankfully, found. But it's been a struggle to get them to ship them to me. Any decent place would have stuck them in a padded envelope and mailed them USPS the day I called.

But not them, they refuse to pay the postage and as result dropped them off at a UPS store that is supposed to call me for my credit card information. 2-3 weeks later I still don't have my shirts, who knows if I'll ever receive them.

There was also an issue with the jacuzzi that wouldn't turn off.

It's obviously my fault that I left them there (this has never happened to me before) and I appreciate them finding them, but they seem to care less about their visitors. A personal interaction I had with them wasn't great either.

There were also no common condiments in the kitchen, such as Olive Oil, Salt, Pepper and such.

We appreciate your feedback and are glad that you liked the house. As has been explained to you in several emails, the entire area is extremely short staffed and we are all working as hard as is humanly possible to ensure that people who come to our area have a wonderful experience. We do care about your stay and your items enough so that one of our personnel took the items to UPS on their own personal time after work and another was answering emails from you while they were at home on their off days. We have to take lost and found items to UPS, we cannot take them to the postal service. UPS packages items safely for us and will contact guests for payment. We could not possibly pay for the hundreds of items that are left each year to be shipped back to their owners. UPS informed us that you have been contacted and your items are being shipped. Their computer system went down and they are extremely backlogged. It is stated in your confirmation that we are happy to supply extra paper products and you are told that at check in. It is also stated in writing on your confirmation that we do not provide items like salt, pepper and such. We don't leave anything edible in the units for our guests safety, we want to ensure that nothing could be tampered with. Anytime you have a maintenance issue such as your jacuzzi all you have to do is call us and would will be happy to send a maintenance man to address your issue. We are sorry that your expectations were not met and hope we can take your suggestions in a positive manner and learn from them.

I go to Gatlinburg 2-3 times per year for my favorite restaurants, relaxation and a chance to do some landscape photography. This is my favorite of all of the chalets that Mountain Laurel offers. Easy access, covered parking, a wonderful view of downtown including Anakeesta, yet still quiet and relaxing while being above it all. The chalet is always squeaky clean, nicely appointed and has every amenity one could want for their Gatlinburg and Smoky Mountain getaway. The staff at Mountain Laurel make it even more special and enjoyable, still. Wonderful people! I always look forward to chatting with Pam and Cheryl in the office while checking in or out. The way they treat me, the value I receive and the first class accommodations always make me look forward to coming back. I can't wait for my Fall trip and hope to stay at Schonblick again!

We really enjoyed Schonblick Cabin! Although the winding narrow road to and fro leaves a lump in your throat. ��
Nice getaway, with nice accommodations! It felt like home.
The balcony has a serene view! Just gorgeous.
Would definitely recommend for any couple needing a few days away!
We only stayed 3 days ( W-Sat) April 21-24th.
Covid safe, as there’s literally no one near you. 4stars.

This is a nice place with a great view of the mountains. It was nice to watch the sunrise and sunset on the balcony while my husband and I were there. The hot tub is right outside the bedroom which was also very nice, and it has a nice big soaking tub in the bathroom. But upon checking the bed, we noticed 5 or 6 strands of red hair inside the pillowcase, on the pillow, and under the blanket. There were also hair strands on the toilet seats in both bathrooms. Also, the couch had some crumbs on the seat in the living area. I also noticed some of the cups in the cabinet had caked on stains around the rim, then we find out that the guests are supposed to wash their own dishes. I have no issue with that at all, but it makes me think the dishes are not rewashed after the guests leave, so people just put them back in dirty. And at a time like this I definitely do not agree with that. We stayed with Mt. Laurel for our honeymoon a few years ago and had no issues at all, but after this experience I don’t know if we will be going back.

Anonymous - Posted: 4/15/2021

Thanks for the review and we regret you had issues with cleanliness during your stay. We do ask our guests to leave the kitchen clean and provide soap for both the kitchen sink and dishwasher. During the departure clean, the housekeepers wipe down the kitchen with disinfecting cleaner and check for general cleanliness and organization, but they do not rewash every dish. Stains from coffee or red wine may appear on cups even after they has been run through the dishwasher and we are sorry that you experienced that situation. Please notify the office if you encounter problems with the chalet (cleanliness or maintenance) and we will do what we can to make it right. We hope you will consider Schonblick and Mountain Laurel for a return visit.

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

Heck of a climb to get there but sooooo worth it! The view from the deck is amazing and even cooler at night. We sat outside for hours just taking it all in. The house is beautiful, clean and spacious. Big bathroom and comfortable bed. Hot tub was fun too! Will definitely book again of we are in the area.

Great vacation rental plenty of room for 2 and everything was clean and comfortable. Aside from the foggy drive up the mountain every thing was great. My only complaint would be it’s 2021 can they not install an electronic lock?

We really enjoy this location and chalet. It was beautiful and had everything you needed. My husband and I went for a birthday getaway. The kitchen is fully stocked with gadgets. We like to cook so that was a pleasant surprise. The hot tub was wonderful to relax and take in the surroundings. We would most definitely stay here again. Highly recommend. We also appreciated your covid friendly check in and check out as well as your cleaning crew.

Enjoy a cozy fire while watching your favorite show on Netflick, or cuddle up with one of the hundreds of books and just relax. We prefer to greet our guests properly in our lobby, but want to keep our guests and staff as safe as possible, so for the time being, the office remains closed to the public. We will rejoice when Covid is behind us! Please keep us in mind when planning your next trip to the Smokies.

Wonderful! Check in/out was simple and the app is perfect. We will rent from Mountain Laurel again! To enjoy spectacular views in the mountains, you have to navigate some curves and inclines. The roads are nicely paved, so just take your time. Nothing treacherous about the drive at all. The home is nicely equipped with most everything you need during your stay. Beautiful, spacious and cozy home. Our favorite stay so far. We’re already looking forward to another visit!

Terri, thanks for writing a review and we are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Schonblick's night time view of the city in the valley below is magical. The mountain roads can be tricky the first time, but not so bad after the first time and, as you pointed out, they are paved the entire way. Thanks for the feedback on the app too. We hope you are able to come see us again soon.

Great views of downtown, Space Needle & Anakeesta! House was very clean and kitchen was well stocked for our stay in and relax Anniversary weekend. We have stayed in many Mountain Laurel Chalets over the years but I think we’ve found our favorite. Enjoyed watching four bears from the deck and hot tub.

The front deck had a view of downtown and Anakeesta across the way, a gas grill, private hot tub and no worries about the bears interrupting happy hour as there is no outside access to it. We also saw bears in the driveway here. We'll be back soon!

Thank you for the review. The roads to Schonblick are a bit winding, but easily maneuvered after your first trip up.

We are glad you enjoyed the holidays here and look forward to seeing you again soon.

The chalet was better than expected. It had a great view from the bedroom and den. Loved the deck and hot tub. The chalet had all the amenities you would want on vacation. We stayed a week and saw bears everyday. We will stay in this chalet again. As usual the staff at Mountain Laurel was extremely friendly and helpful.

We had a wonderful time at Schonblick. Although the drive up the mountain was challenging, it was well worth it. The house was spacious, updated, clean and private.. The views were amazing. We even had 3 bears visit while we were dining on the deck. We will definitely be back.

This was one of several times our family stayed at Schonblick. Beautiful and peaceful location. We decided to stay at Schonblick this year to celebrate our daughter's 21st birthday and our much needed family vacation. Our family got to enjoy the beauty of Nature at Cades Cove and Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail as well as some moonshine and wine tasting and also some shopping but was always great to come back to the peaceful cabin. Even if we did not see any bears at the cabin, we certainly saw plenty of bears at Cades Cove and at Roaring Fork Nature Trail. We definitely be back.

Jerry, We pride ourselves in clean chalets and will pay special attention to making sure this gets addressed. So glad you enjoyed your stay. As always, you are welcome to call our office during your stay so that we can address any concerns you have. Most of our chalets are located less than 2 miles from our office and we are happy to come fix anything you notice!

This is the second time we have stayed in Schonblick, and it was absolutely perfect for us! Pictures really do not do it justice, it is an older chalet but the updates are incredible. The bed was so comfortable, the bathroom is amazing. View from the back deck is beautiful, you can see downtown Gatlinburg through the trees. The chalet is so warm and inviting. It's the most I've ever felt like "home"" while on vacation. The staff with Mountain Laurel Chalets is always so kind and helpful. We had a great experience and definitely plan to visit again! "

Holly P. - Posted: 7/12/2018

Schonblick is large, cozy, and has great views. We especially enjoyed the hot tub, privacy, and quietness this rental provided. The drive up the mountain as other reviews have said is difficult up a narrow and winding road. You can see the cable car through the trees for Ober Gatlinburg from the hot tub. The rooms are large, the bed is comfortable, the shower is large, the kitchen had everything we needed, and there are board games, puzzles and lots of books. The décor is focused on bears which are everywhere around the cabin, although we didn't see any actual bears. We would stay here again, and recommend this rental to others.

Jeffrey B. - Posted: 6/30/2018

This was my third visit to the Gatlinburg area and my second time renting a Mountain Laurel Chalet property.
The Schonblick was actually recommended by one of the staff and the house did not disappoint. The pictures actually did not do it justice. The one bedroom house was huge, with high cathedral like ceilings and an open floor concept. The bedroom was also spacious and the bathroom was a married couples dream, with double vanities on either side, a huge soaking tub, a separate water closet and a beautiful stone walk in shower. The home was clean and every piece of furniture was in great shape. There were tons of board games and books and the kitchen had a lot of small appliances, (toaster, coffee maker, blender), which was a nice surprise. The view from the porch was amazing, you could see downtown Gatlinburg as well as the mountains. I was able to get some great photos on that porch. It was quiet and peaceful, definitely the perfect place for a romantic getaway. The climb to the property is a bit treacherous, with lots of twists and deep turns, but we were in the mountains after all.
I was a little disappointed that the one day we were able to use the hot tub, (it rained everyday we were there and the porch has no cover), we discovered that the jets weren't working correctly, so we were not able to use it. Also, both of the screens leading to the porch kept coming off the track, so getting on and off the porch was a hassle and there was always the concern that bugs would get inside the house. Beyond that, we had a wonderful stay. We spent most of our time in the house, but when we did go into the city, we found it way too crowded to enjoy, (Memorial Day Weekend). The streets were crowded, the lines for everything were way too long and the traffic was unbearable. We enjoyed dinner at Cherokee Grill and a little retail therapy at the local shops. All in all a great trip and as always the staff at Mountain Laurel was amazing!

Sandra O. - Posted: 5/25/2018

Our cabin was perfect!! We had everything we could have needed to cook (but we didn't cook) the cabin was clean when we arrived. Would recommend this cabin to anyone wanting a nice place for 2 people to get away. The first few trips up and down the roads kinda freaked me out but after getting used to them they weren't that bad. Did see 3 bear cubs on our way down on Sunday. They were adorable from our truck!!

Lisa A. - Posted: 5/16/2018

My husband and I visited Gatlinburg to celebrate our 39th wedding anniversary. This cabin was beautiful and the views were amazing. The cabin is very cozy and has a warm inviting feeling. We highly recommend this property. The only thing I would suggest is instructions on how to get the tv up and running.

Cynthia B. - Posted: 4/27/2018

This chalet is true Gatlinburg gem! Spacious, comfortable and even offers a carport that's handy for keeping your vehicle cool on hot days, or keeping you dry on rainy days. The view from the hot tub/deck is a stunning combination of downtown Gatlinburg main parkway surrounded by the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Very pretty at sunset and sunrise, with all the lights and colors of town against a colorful takes less than 10 minutes to drive down the mountain and onto the parkway, or hang a right and enter the national park. Pam and the rest of the staff at the office are great people and very helpful. They know you are looking forward to your stay and do everything possible to make the experience quick, easy and enjoyable. This town is my favorite weekend getaway and I wouldn't even consider renting anywhere other than Mountain Laurel Chalet Rentals. They are honest, friendly and the absolute best, so why look elsewhere? Save yourself some stress and know that they will handle your accommodations while you enjoy your visit and go make some memories!

I always love my trips to Gatlinburg and have stayed in many different places, but after looking at many rental properties online, I kept coming back to this one. The photos and information drew me in, but stepping into the large open living area and seeing the incredible views made me so glad I rented Schonblick. The drive up there was pretty steep and winding, but it was definitely worth it. The chalet was clean and the furniture is very comfortable. I especially enjoyed sitting on the deck at night looking at the downtown Gatlinburg lights and seeing the Ober Gatlinburg trams as they passed by. I also enjoyed having my morning coffee in front of the gas fireplace. Everyone in the office was friendly and very helpful and made checking in and out a breeze. I will definitely rent this chalet again and will recommend it to others. Thank you Mountain Laurel Chalets for offering one of the best rentals in Gatlinburg!

Awesome place to stay for vacation, also great people at the office, really friendly and the cabin was really clean and huge. We had an amazing view to downtown Gatlinburg, which was beautiful at night with all the lights. We even saw some fireworks. They even left some numbers for pizza place that's close by. It's really close to town too so, there is plenty of stuff to do and see. We are deffanatly going there again.

So we actually stayed in Oct. 2009. This place was great! Be prepared for bears and other critters..but you can’t beat the view, and it’s location is prime. Amenities inside are the shower and kitchen. The windows gleam as you bask in the sunlight. Truly a fantastic experience...trying to figure out how to fit a family of 4 now.

We've stayed at Schonblick before and were eager to do so again. The chalet is spacious and comfortable, easily accessible, and offers a lovely view of the mountains and town. It's a great place to hibernate or to come home to after a full day of hiking or shopping. And the hot tub is top-notch.

Tom C. - Posted: 4/7/2017

We love the Schonblick chalet, had stayed in it a few years ago. The view of town is spectacular, especially at night. We love the layout of the home, and didn't want to leave! Many thanks to the owner for sharing this beautiful, comfortable home. We were back for our 1st time since the November fires. We have been coming to Gatlinburg at least once or twice a year for over 30 years, it was a bittersweet return.....

Enjoyed a lovely 4 night stay at the Schonblick. Amazing views and luxurious charm. Extremely cozy and comfortable. Could not wait to get back to our chalet after each day of hiking, sightseeing, shopping, and adventure. Travel to and from the chalet was a thrill in itself. Beautiful décor and all of the amenities we needed. Ski Mountain Pizza at the bottom of the mountain even delivered dinner. A Highly recommended relaxing getaway for any age.

We have stayed at Schonblick for many years. It has become our home away from home! It is beautifully decorated, has excellent views and is the perfect place to unwind! The folks at Mountain Laurel are friendly and very helpful.

Mike B. - Posted: 10/23/2016

We called Mountain Laurel with the following request: 1 to 2 bedrooms, hot tub, close to downtown Gatlinburg, but private, and overlooking downtown so we could see the lights at night from the deck. They had exactly what we were looking for. We had looked at dozens of cabins and chalets on VRBO, and could not find what we were looking for. We go to Gatlinburg once a year, and will just call Mountain Laurel from now on. We saw their signs at other cabins close to ours, and we now have a map of their properties. Their office was very nice, and their staff is great. We highly recommend this company.

Todd C. - Posted: 9/20/2016

Mountain Laurel Chalets staff

We have stayed in Schonblick many times and it continues to be our favorite Mountain Laurel property. We like that everything is on one floor. The only drawback for us is the stairway we must climb at the entrance. It's getting more difficult for us as we age, but we just can't give it up.

Karen B. - Posted: 4/4/2016

We rented Schonblick for our 23rd anniversary weekend. We couldn't ask for a better place or location! This is located up Ski Mtn, not far from the last stop light in Gatlinburg. Very convenient location to everything in town but far enough away @ the end of the street....surrounded by trees! The night-time view from the deck is nice.....you see the lights of downtown! The king-size bed was very comfortable!
We will definitely return and use this company again for our future stays! Super nice people!

Tammie J. - Posted: 3/16/2016

First time to this property. It's at end of the road so you only see service vehicles. View of Gatlinburg is wonderful both in day and at night. Covered parking was very nice when weather is not cooperating. Very spacious living, dining and kitchen area. You'll wish you stayed longer!

We came up on the eve of the 4th biggest snow storm to cover the east coast. It started snowing Friday evening as we were coming up the mountain and stopped Sunday as we were leaving. The setting was absolutely gorgeous. Loved the chalet. Never lost power, and the city did a great job clearing the roads. We highly recommend the chalet and thank the owners for sharing with us.

I rent this cabin for my boyfriend's birthday surprise trip for 5days.

We loved every each single of moments.
Everything was so perfect. Though I had planned lots of activities in the town, we often ended up staying in because it was just so...perfect.

Besides the cabin itself, I was amazed how helpful the staff were. I was trying to plan this trip from Japan and had some difficulties with payment since I only had Japanese billing address. They held my reservation a month ahead, even got their tech team to work on the issue and they kept in touch with me the entire time to assure me that it will be OK!

Thank you so much for the dreamy week. We will be back possibly before the summer!

We had a wonderful time at this House. It is a beautiful cabin with a fantastic view of Gatlinburg. At night time the City is all lit up. Everything worked good. The washer, the dryer worked better than mine at home. We couldn't find an outdoor grill so I used the broiler in the kitchen oven. That even worked better than mine at home. Ribeye Steak came out really good. The King sized bed in the master was very comfortable. The large size sofa was good for watching tv after being out all day exploring. The staff at Mountain Laurel were very friendly and helpful. The roads are a little bit crazy to get used to especially driving up to the house at night but that is what you would expect up in the Mountains. I was reading the Guest Log In Book on the coffee table... it shows that many people are repeat customers. I will be back also. Thank you for letting us enjoy your Home. Carol

Location is perfect: close to town and yet feels remote and private. The house is spacious and well appointed. Upgrades to the Master bathroom are modern and luxurious. I can't wait to roll the dice this winter and try to book the cabin when it is snowing! The sight of snow falling through those windows surrounding a nice fire must be breathtaking. A perfect home away from he for me and my husband and young son. There are 'some' mountain decor touches here and there, but it is not overwhelming and like some properties.

Karen B. - Posted: 4/24/2015

I booked the Schonblick as a last minute getaway trip. There were only a few chalets left for the timeframe that I needed. The Schonblick was excellent. It fit every need I asked for, and was almost completley private. I liked the ability to park my car under the home away from some inclimate weather that came in suddenly. Please don't let the 1BR fool you. This place is very nice, and plenty big enough for a family. Kids could pull out the trundle bed from underneath the day bed in the loft and stay comfortably away from parents as well. You too will love to see and experience the home. The vast array of reading material would have lead anyone to stay for weeks just reading and enjoying the spectacular views. The morning mist and the view of downtown Gatlinburg area was great! My only compaint was small, but the hot tub deck area could have used a little sprucing up. The cover didn't fit snugly and it had allowed some debris in the water that we had to sift out. The door on the side of the hot tub was a little worn as well. Overall the Schonblick hit the spot for some relaxation, especially for a last minute booking. The location was a little difficult to find in the dark, but very private. I'm not sure for the size, location, privacy, cleanliness, and rental price of the home it could be beat. I would reccomend this rental and Mountain Laurel Chalets to anyone. Mountain Laurel stayed late for our late arrival, and were very nice and courteous in doing so.

Drive to cabin was a little unnerving as some spots were one lane only, but worth it for the views, the very comfortable chalet and the quiet and relaxation. We would definitely come here again.

We came for a romantic getaway and also it being our first time in the area we were happy we made this choice! As we stepped in the cabin it was exactly how the pictures showed and even better. Cabin is secluded and we felt at peace coming from a very busy city. The cabin is not that far from the main office and it also had everything we needed and more besides us needing to bring our personal belongings and groceries. We were recommended a delivery grocery company and all the groceries were delivered prior to arrival and situated int he kitchen which was very convenient. The cabin is right in Gatlinburg and very close to the downtown area, literally minutes away and also close to the entrance of the Great Smokey Mountains. We loved our experience in the area and glad we picked this cabin, we will definitely be back again next year!

Everything was great. Our only complaint was the fact that the porch railing blocked a good percentage of the view of the mountains when you were seated on the deck. We chose the location because we wanted to sit and relax and soak in the mountain view.

Schonblick exceeded our expectations for our stay in Gatlinburg. The drive up the mountain from town was not for the faint-of-heart, but once you have arrived it provides a peaceful and relaxing setting with an awesome view. I highly recommend this chalet and will be returning on future visits to the area.

Everything was awesome. The view was spectacular, and the condition and cleanliness of the cabin was great. My only gripe was not having enough towels to cover the duration of our stay and having to go down the mountain with dirty towels to change them out for new ones. Besides that I would definitely come back and recommend this place.

We had a very nice time at the Schonblick chalet. The decor inside was wonderful and the king size bed was perfect for a honeymooning couple! As far as my ratings, the only negative was that the hot tub wouldn't shut off and had way too much chlorine. That's something that can be fixed. Otherwise it's a very nice place to stay.
