The house was gorgeous and the location was perfect. Just far enough out of town but you can walk there in 15 minutes. We saw 15 bears in 7 days from the house. Amazing! The only small suggestion would be put a mirror on the roadway corner to help pull out. Cars drive fast and you can't see them until the last second when turning out of the parking area. Besides that, fantastic stay!

We had an incredible experience using Vrbo. This was actually the first time I have booked through Vrbo and was nervous about the process. The booking was easy, the location that we booked was exactly as promised and the communication through booking, planning and while there was perfect. I would definitely recommend booking through Vrbo and especially our location at Downtown Chestnut Lodge in Gatlinburg.
