The Canoodle Nest was the perfect getaway and provided everythin |

The staff at Mountain Laurel Chalets were friendly, efficient and helpful - it was very easy booking the chalet and checking in and out.
The house itself was fantastic! Beautiful view of Mt LaConte, and the house was very clean. The hot tub was used every day, the jacuzzi was used everyday, and the fireplace was used every day - what more could a person want?
I also really liked the tall windows giving us a view of the back side of the property, it made us feel like we really were nestled in the woods.
Honestly, there was nothing I disliked about the home, and we will definitely be visiting the Canoodle Nest again in the future. |

This home is perfect for a getaway for two. It has all the amenities we wanted, jacuzzi, hot tub, 2 person shower. The house is just beautiful, and the view of Mt. Leconte is incredible. You can see the ski lift lit up at night, and the stars are shining bright on clear nights.
Our whole trip was very memorable, we even saw a bear cub cross the road, and my husband saw two huge wild turkeys.
We had no problems at all! The last night we were there, we had noisy neighbors down the mountain, but other than that everything was perfect. Thank you to Mountain Laurel Chalets. |

| The chalet provided the most relaxing and romantic atmosphere that we have ever experienced.We really loved the open and roomy feeling. The view was great in the mornings from upper bedroom. Loved the huge outer deck and certainly the covered hot tub. We would for sure love to stay at this wonderful place again soon. A special thanks to the owners for sharing their lovely home.

We are not sure where to start. The scenery is beautiful, the cabin is wonderful and the people were so nice. We were there on our honeymoon and we fell in love with the place as soon as we woke up in the morning and saw it, (we got in at 2:00 a.m.). The roads going to and from are a bit scary and hard on your car, but ours did fine. We would just like to say thank you for a wonderful experience.

P.S. We hope you enjoyed the wine. |

| We enjoyed every minute! The Caboodle's Nest was all we expected and more. Being a clean freak, the accomodations were immaculate and well take care of. We had been warned of the odd angle of the drive way, and it was a challenge; but we had it by the 2nd day. The folks at the Chalet office were friendly and more than helpful. If dining in, be sure and take necessary condiments, ice, etc. as they are not provided. We planned on going into town more than we did, but it was so beautiful we ended up staying on the porch for some much needed rest. This place is perfect for two people and romantic too! Richard and I would recommend Mountain Laurel Chalets to anyone and especially the Caboodle's Nest! (except on the week we'll be going back!) |

This Chalet is beautiful, private and romantic! The view of Mt. Leconte is breathtaking! We were fortunate to see a snowfall during our stay.
The accommodations were beyond our expectations, cozy with a LARGE stone fireplace! The huge wrap around deck offers seclusion and sunshine all day long.
You can?t go wrong here . . . I fully expect to stay at Canoodle Nest again in the future.

The Canoodle Nest was our perfect honeymoon spot. It felt like we had lots of privacy, but we were close to restaurants, entertainment, etc. First time staying in the Smokies - view was absolutely gorgeous and saw nothing but mountains, mountains. Loved the hot tub and jacuzzi, great honeymoon spot. Would definitely rent again, maybe for the first anniversary or maybe for the summer vacation. Thanks for such a nice place to stay.

| This place is GODS country no doubt about it. The View was Spectacular,The chalet was Adorable. it was just what we needed to feel rejuvenated and re-energized. I highly recommend it to anyone who is just going for a little getaway or a nice long vacation --It was just so beautiful up there, we took like a million pictures (of the sunrise, of the snow covered mountains across from us ) my sister who has been out to Colorado a couple times says she thinks the mountains in Tenn. looks better than Colorados and the town (Gatlinburg) looked like a winter wonderland. whether we were in the hot tub in 32 degree weather sipping wine or snuggled up under a blankie on the couch in front of a roaring fire (which they keep you stocked in firewood) just watching TV my husband and I just reconnected (we have been together 20 years ) and it was just so nice and relaxing and stress free ,I guess what I am trying to say is I LOVED IT!! We are returning in Jan.2009 and we WILL be using Mountain Laurel again! Thanks for a wonderful 5 days.Connie & Jeff |

| My girlfriend an I were looking to get away to Gatlinburg for a long weekend. We searched online and came across the Canoodle Nest. We immediately knew that this is where we wanted to stay. The chalet was well-equipped and beautiful. The view was spectacular and we were only a few short minutes from town. We even got to see some bears. Our only complaint was that the bed was a little firm, what a complaint. We are going to go back next year for a week. |

We spent a wonderful weekend at the Canoodle Nest and had a wonderful time. This is the first time that we stayed in a vacation rental home instead of a hotel -- and it was perfect. It's even nicer than the pictures of the web!
Would definitely recommend this house - especially if you're bringing kids. Take note that the rooms are not sound proof; in fact there is not so much of a wall to speak off .. sounds strange but it give a very nice airy feeling to the room; remember to take that into consideration for your planning.
Also,there's a hot tub both inside the house & one outside the house ... wonderful place to relax after a day of outdoor activities.
We cooked & grill outside and we actually found some time to relax on our vacation! Hopefully will be here again
the following year.
Enjoy. |

25th Anniversary mini honeymoon |

We spent a wonderfully quiet and secluded weekend for our 25th Anniversary at the Canoodle Nest.
We were not disappointed, the chalet is beautiful! Nestled in the mountains the view is amazing and we couldn't have asked for better weather.
We took our coffee out on the deck each morning and drenched ourselves in the fresh air and wonder of the sounds of nature that surrounded us.
We completely utilized the bbq grill and the kitchen was complete with everything we needed to prepare a wonderful anniversary dinner. The accommodations were most comfortable.
This is a wonderful chalet for honeymooners or a couple just wanting to get away from the hustle of life.
Two of my favorite amenities would have to be the jacuzzi and the fireplace that added to the romance and ambiance of this special weekend.
We will definitely return. |

| My husband and I spent our 10th wedding anniversary at the Canoodle Nest. We chose to stay in Gatlinberg because that is where we stayed for our honeymoon. I was looking for a quaint little cabin that was secluded from others,Canoodle Nest is just that. We had a wonderful time there. We had a couples massage by the fire place and enjoyed the peacefulness of the hot tub in the evenings. I even had Klassy Snacks set up a dinner for 2 for when we arrived along with other treats through the house. This was the most unforgetable trip my husband and I have ever been on. |

| This cabin couldn't have a more appropriate name. It's one of the best we've ever had for a romantic weekend, even though we've done these weekends several times a year for 23 years. Cozy, yet roomy and very comfortable. Great view from the hot tub. I recommend Canoodle Nest very highly to anyone looking for the perfect getaway for two. |

My husband and I stayed here on a weekend getaway, and we
enjoyed it. We loved the hot tub. The views were great. It felt
private, even though there are a couple of other houses in sight.
It was very windy and I had trouble sleeping in the loft, but
that's just me. There were a few things that needed repairs, like
the shower door leaked and the window blinds were bent. The
kitchen was well-equipped. Overall we enjoyed our stay very
much. |

This was our first time in Gatlinburg, and the Canoodle Nest was a perfect place to headquarter. Just minutes from the National Park and all the other tourist activities, the views and ambiance were stellar. It was a very hot and dry August, so we also enjoyed the various swimming pools that were available to the renters.
We especially enjoyed evenings in the outdoor hot tub at sunset.
If this property has been renovated, we're sure they only improve it...things were a bit dated. Minor inconveniences for all the great things about the locale.
One word of warning...the driveway entrance is very tricky and difficult to access from the down-mountain approach. Best to access by going past the entrance, turn around, then come downhill and go up via that approach. We had car repairs after we returned home due to body damage to the bumpers and underside of the front and back of the car, which is not a big vehicle to begin with.
That being said, the overall experience was so good that the car damage was 'worth it', actually. |
