About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Downtown Dolly is a 2 bed/2bath creekside cottage only a half-mile from downtown Gatlinburg.

Welcome to Downtown Dolly, an inviting retreat nestled in the heart of the mountains, perfect for a rejuvenating getaway. This charming cottage, less than a mile from Anakeesta, features newly refurbished interiors and stunning granite countertops, blending modern comfort with rustic charm.

The fully equipped kitchen is ideal for preparing delicious home-cooked meals, while the cozy living room, complete with a seasonal (Oct 1 - April 1) gas fireplace, offers a warm haven on chilly winter nights. Upstairs, you'll find two luxurious king bedrooms, each with a private en suite bathroom, ensuring a restful night's sleep.

Step outside to embrace nature's tranquility on the property, enjoying the soothing sounds of the nearby creek from the hot tub, the porch, or even the private fire pit. For a unique outdoor experience, gather around the fire pit to roast s'mores and share stories under the stars, all while listening to the calming creek flowing right on the property itself.

With its prime location just a short two-minute walk from a trolley stop and just under a mile from the vibrant Gatlinburg strip, you'll have easy access to all the attractions and activities this beautiful area has to offer.

Few days to get away
The place was very nice. We had a couple issues but were addressed right away. The only thing I would have changed, the houses are really close. But overall it was a nice getaway.

Great time in Great Smokies
Downtown Dolly was perfect for our family of 5 - 2 adults, 3 kids (ages 10-15). It is close enough to walk down to Gatlinburg(10min walk there, all uphill on way back so check out the free trolley schedule too) and a close drive to the Great Smoky National Park entrance. The GS NP exit via Roaring Fork Motor Road is actually a few blocks from the house! Although right off the main road, it is still tucked away and quiet. It's very clean and appliances/supplies were exactly as described. Hot tub and patio/firepit are a nice relaxing bonus especially after hikes. Communication via the RedDoor links was super easy.

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.
