Mountain Dewey's borders the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and is close to the arts & crafts community, theme parks, aquarium & museums, shopping, water sports, nature trails, hiking, dinner shows, and more.
Begin your mornings with a cup of hot coffee on our second-floor balcony with a breathtaking vista that overlooks the town of Pigeon Forge, about 6 miles down the mountain. The same view sparkles after dark with the lights from hundreds of shops, restaurants, and fun places to play. My pictures from our balcony are all taken roughly from the same angle at different times of day, and all seasons of the year.
Our quiet and peaceful condo is on a mountaintop, which is not in town, but near town. Cozy and comfortable, we welcome visitors from all walks of life and backgrounds. Minutes from Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, and the wilderness, there are no limits of places to go and things to see.
Many of our guests comment on how nice it is to have a quiet place to relax after the bustling activities in Gatlinburg & Pigeon Forge, or a beautiful hike on one of the myriad trails in the Smokies. Theme parks, horseback riding, swimming, biking, water sports, shopping, skiing, and zip-lining are great fun, all of which let you appreciate a good night's sleep! We offer three beds - one queen and two twin/singles. A fifth person could sleep on the sofa if they're not a giant, and there’s also a twin-size inflatable air mattress with an electric pump. Plenty of extra quilts, blankets, and throws are provided. I personally like to wrap up in a quilt when sitting on the balcony.
While the kitchen is compact, it is efficient and equipped well enough for the finest cook to serve a gourmet meal. In addition to the ordinary necessities, we have two coffee makers - a full-sized pot and a single-serve Keurig, an electric hand-mixer, a slow-cooker, blender, toaster, & microwave, and plenty of dishes, glasses, & silverware. There are wire whisks, corkscrews, can openers, measuring utensils, muffin pans, mixing bowls, cutting boards, and sharp knives. The refrigerator has an icemaker. The stove and dishwasher are apartment-sized due to limited space. We also have a set of child-size dishes and silverware for smaller hands. They are dishwasher and microwave safe, so use them with abandon.
A 50" Smart TV with cable is in the living room, and each bedroom has a 40" Smart TV. All three televisions have Blue-ray DVD players, Netflix, and Prime Video. If nothing playing on TV suits you, there's a collection of over 300 DVDs plus about 100 books. We have our own private WiFi server, which is far superior to most other units.
There are 2 hot tubs and a year-round indoor pool as well as a seasonal outdoor pool. We have several pool noodles in the condo, but please bring your own beach towels. Coin-operated laundry facilities are on-site, and firewood is provided for a small fee during the cooler months. The huge free parking lot surrounds the main office building, which includes the indoor pools and laundry facilities.
Although our second-floor balcony is small, we've added a bar-height bistro set with cushioned swivel chairs. This added height above the treetops gives an unobstructed view of the mountains and valley below. You can see all the way to Pigeon Forge and beyond. Each season offers a different view, one more breathtaking than the next. There are mountains as far as the eye can see.
The entire condominium is open for your pleasure. I hope you'll enjoy taking advantage of our games, books, and DVDs in your downtime. We furnish all bed linens and towels, as well as paper goods, toothpaste, shampoo, and soap. There's also dishwashing liquid and dishwasher pods in the kitchen. Additionally, you will find an iron and ironing board, 2 hairdryers, and two hand mirrors.
Our unit is on the second floor, and accessible by stairs only.
Due to the impact of the buildings settling over the years, the sliding door and adjacent window are askew. The window is so far off square that it won't open, so please don't attempt it. Although the sliding door closes all the way, it’s sometimes difficult to lock, so we have provided a wooden wedge to prevent outside entry. Our balcony is fairly high up, therefore it's highly doubtful that it could be accessed anyway, but the wedge gives a better sense of security. It's also possible that the lock may be fixed by the time you read this.
In addition to signing our guestbook, we would appreciate you leaving a review on this site, especially with suggestions as to improvements needed or other ways in which we can make your visit more pleasurable.
We've seen black bears on the premises more than once, which is always a thrill, but it is expressly forbidden to feed them...so no throwing food off the balcony!
Thank you for considering Mountain Dewey's for your stay in the Great Smoky Mountains. We look forward to being your host!
