Chris and I have always stayed in a cabin on our trips to Gatlinburg, but I realized that wasn't the smartest thing with Monkey. What if we needed medical care? How long would we wait for an ambulance or how long would it take us to make it down the mountain to the hospital? "Too long" was my answer. So, I opted for a hotel instead.
The hotel was very nice and after Chris and I bleached and sanitized every solid inch of the room and bathroom (we really did), we settled in.
