Welcome to Smoky Mountain Memories, a majestic seven-bedroom/eight-bathroom Gatlinburg cabin rental that sleeps up to 20 guests. This sprawling 100 Collection™ property is loaded with amenities, and it offers ample space and long-range views. SMM is the former residence of Dot and Ralph Egli, the founder of Mountain Laurel Chalets. This home has been painstakingly transformed into a retreat that honors the Egli family legacy and provides the finest in vacation living.

Upon entering the property’s main level, guests will immediately feel a warm sense of welcome. To the left, a spacious sitting area sets a peaceful mood, offering a direct view of Mt. LeConte beyond the windows. A large fully-stocked kitchen is situated to the right, and it has everything you need to prepare large meals in the comfort of your home away from home (just bring groceries). The kitchen’s sub-zero refrigerator, double ovens, and a warming drawer make cooking a breeze. Beyond the kitchen, a dining area boasts an oversized table with plenty of seating, perfect for shared meals and game play. A few more steps take you into the cozy sunroom, which features a wall of windows that frame the beauty of the mountains. A gas fireplace adds to the ambience of the space.

The main level is home to five king-sized bedrooms. The largest bedroom boasts a set of twin bunk beds, and an ensuite bathroom. Three more king suites offer private bathrooms, and the last king bedroom has access to a full hallway bathroom. Each bedroom has a large SmartTV, on which you can access Netflix and other popular streaming services (just bring your login credentials). Streaming shows is a breeze, thanks to SMM’s robust wifi network.

The main level deck allows guests to relax and enjoy epic views of the Smokies, with Mt. LeConte framed front and center. Plenty of rocking chairs are available, and a set of stairs lead down to the large yard area below.

Downstairs, you’ll immediately be captivated by the large theater room, complete with built-in reclining seating. Enjoy a movie or the big game as a group on the 80” screen, and from the comfort of home! Just beyond the theater, a large game room awaits. A pool table, foosball, a game table, a 50” TV, and more will have you engaged in a little friendly competition in no time! A lower level sunroom features more comfy seating arrangements, another TV, and easy access to the side yard.

The lower level offers one king suite with a private bath. It also boasts a bunk room with two sets of twin bunks beds and a kitchenette, as well as another king bedroom. These two bedrooms share access to a bathroom.

As you step into the sizable side yard, guests will be delighted to find a large flagstone fire pit, an oversized hot tub, and even a quaint playhouse for the children in the group. A new oversized charcoal grill offers a fun opportunity to prepare dinner in the beauty of the Smokies.

Guests of this Gatlinburg cabin rental have access to three clubhouses, the closest to Smoky Mountain Memories being the Upper Alpine Clubhouse, which has a large outdoor pool, a wading pool with a fountain (for youngsters), showers/changing rooms, and a game room with a pool table, foosball, air hockey, video games, and chess/checkers.
