While it may be hard to believe, the summer season is slowly winding down as the daylight hours start to shorten and kids prepare to return to school. However, it is never too late for a fun summer vacation to Chalet Village, as the end of August and beginning of September can be one of the best times of year to visit the Smokies! Here are the top 4 benefits of spending a late summer vacation at our rental cabins in Gatlinburg:
1. Lower Crowds at the National Park
One of the awesome things about a late summer vacation in the Smoky Mountains are the lower crowd levels at the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. As the most popular national park in the country, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park drew more than 11 million visitors in 2017! July is the busiest month of the summer season, but by late August there are fewer crowds on the trails. Many school districts in the country start in mid-August, which means there aren’t as many families on vacation in the Smokies. The autumn season brings a surplus of visitors with fall foliage, car shows and other events, so visit now to take advantage of the lower crowds!
2. Excellent Cabin Availability
Another benefit of spending a late summer vacation at our rental cabins in Gatlinburg TN is the number of available cabins at Chalet Village! After the peak summer season, you have a better choice of available cabins that range anywhere from 1 to 8 bedrooms. We also have a selection of pet friendly cabins in Gatlinburg where you can bring your beloved furry companion along for the fun! Whether you want a honeymoon cabin for two or a large cabin for a group of friends, we have everything you need for a wonderful getaway to the Smokies!
3. Awesome Mid-Season Rates
The months of August and September are considered mid-season at Chalet Village, meaning that you can enjoy reduced rates in all of our cabin rentals! As a result, you have more vacation money to spend on the attractions, restaurants and shops in downtown Gatlinburg!

4. Beautiful Weather
The weather conditions in late summer are still nice and warm, making it a delightful time to be outside among the beauty of the Smokies! This is also the perfect time of year to take advantage of our 3 clubhouses with outdoor swimming pools, which are included for free as part of your stay at Chalet Village! These clubhouses have other fun amenities too, such as tennis courts, ping pong and shuffleboard. Whether you want to spend your afternoon hiking, swimming or relaxing in your cabin, you will love every minute of your late summer getaway!
