About Bluegreen Laurel Crest

Bluegreen Laurel Crest stands out among Pigeon Forge resort hotels for its prime location in the quiet foothills, just minutes from the main parkway's attractions. The property combines the convenience of condo-style living with genuine mountain charm, positioned perfectly for both Dollywood adventures and Great Smoky Mountains exploration.

The resort's signature feature is its multi-tiered outdoor pool complex, where cascading waterfalls and stone details create a natural mountain pool atmosphere that kids especially love. Inside, the spacious suites offer practical amenities like full kitchens and separate living areas, making it easy for families to save money on dining out. Most units include cozy fireplaces, though bathroom sizes can vary considerably between accommodations.

Located about 6 miles from Dollywood, the resort provides easy access to major attractions while maintaining distance from the heaviest tourist traffic. A trolley stop near the property connects guests to Pigeon Forge's entertainment district, shopping centers, and restaurants without the hassle of finding parking downtown.

Smart travelers should request units away from any ongoing property updates and book early during peak seasons (June-August and October) when parking can become limited. The resort's elevation offers some units mountain views, though specific views aren't guaranteed.

For the best experience, consider: - Requesting upper-floor units for better views - Bringing pool toys during warm months - Using the trolley service during high-traffic periods - Planning for self-catering with the in-room kitchen facilities

The combination of spacious accommodations, mountain-inspired amenities, and strategic location makes Bluegreen Laurel Crest a practical choice for families wanting both comfort and convenience in Pigeon Forge.
