This condo is at the end of the Gatlinburg strip and walking distance to everything there, which is nice to not have to pay to park. My 3-year-old and 5-year-old were able to get around easily, which was the most important priority for our trip. This location is also right at the start of the Gatlinburg trailhead, which is a nice hike for small children or really anyone! We really liked the creekside sounds and ambience from the private patio. The downside of the rental is that it could use some updating. The mattresses on all beds were very uncomfortable and the sofa bed was broken. The towels were also very coarse and I strongly recommend bringing your own. Initially, we were attracted to this location because it had a pool, but we didn't end up going in it because there was a white residue on top of the water, and the water was cold. Other reviewers have said Park Place Condos vary from unit to unit. So, I might consider renting again, but just not unit #305.
