**NEWLY BUILT CABIN!

LOCATION LOCATION!! Half a mile to downtown Gatlinburg. 3-tier decks overlook the city and the mountains! Sit on the decks and enjoy the music playing from a distance.

Always A View has a spectacular view of Mt. LeConte and the downtown Gatlinburg strip. Our cabin is furnished with Three King Master Suites, tiled showers, theater room, game room equipped with free-play arcade games, and comfortably sleeps six. This cabin is close to everything Gatlinburg has to offer because it is located directly up on the mountain about a half mile behind Ripley's Aquarium.

You will enter a private driveway to a large flat concrete parking area with just five steps to enter the cabin. The main level offers a beautiful rock fireplace accented with a log mantel, electric fireplace, leather sofa and two leather chairs. The living area features a 40" LED TV with ROKU and Spectrum Cable and as well as high speed internet throughout the cabin. All three master suites are on their own floor, so you have complete privacy. The kitchen is fully equipped, has large beautiful windows and doors that lead out to one of the three decks to enjoy the mountain air, inspiring views of the Smoky Mountains and Gatlinburg below. The deck is equipped with rocking chairs and a 6-person hot tub to enjoy the outdoors. Night time is another treat when the view turns to the glow of the city lights below.

The lower level leads to the game area complete with free-play arcades; board games, cards, poker chips, theater room, and many movies have been provided to entertain all ages on a 82-inch TV. There is also a master suite bedroom and full bathroom on this lower level.The bedroom is equipped with an LED TV and DVD Player.

The upper level leads to another master suite, king size log bed, and beautiful tiled shower. Beyond the master suite is a relaxing sitting area to curl up with your favorite book, next to the large windows and doors that leads out to the upper level deck, complete with seating for a high rise view!

The main level features the beautiful vaulted ceilings, paddle fan, fully equipped kitchen with granite counter-tops, farmhouse sink, stainless appliances, oversize dining table, laundry room with full-size washer and dryer, and the third master suite with king size log bed, and an adjoining full bathroom with a beautifully tiled shower. This bedroom is equipped with a 32" LED TV and DVD Player. The full bath on this level offers a beautifully tiled tub/shower combo, granite counter-top, large vanity, and vessel sink.

Always a View combines a fantastic view, close to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge attractions, with multiple amenities, a cabin to enjoy year-round!

Our new go to cabin!
My Husband and our two small children (5 & 8) had a terrific time staying here! The cabin was very clean, spacious, relaxing, cozy and the location was phenomenal. We all loved the movie theater and the game room! Added bonus we saw a bear just outside the door on our way to dinner our last night there. I cannot wait to stay here again for my upcoming trips with family and friends. My only suggestion is to take some extra towels with you. They did supply towels but with the hot tub you’ll definitely need towels for that if you plan to use it which my kids absolutely could not get enough of

This house was amazing! The view alone but it has a lot of amenities to offer guests. Decent amount of parking down a private driveway. Highly recommend this vacation home for your stay in Gatlinburg.

Great cabin
We had a great time in this cabin. It was super clean and there was a lot to do as a family at the cabin without leaving. The view was amazing!!! The drive up and down was a little scary for non mountain drivers but after a day or so we became very familiar and comfortable. You won’t be disappointed!
Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023

Why they chose this property

This cabin was love at first sight! We searched high and low for the perfect cabin, and this shines above the rest with the perfect location, year-round views, and accommodations.

We have spent extra time and effort to make this cabin the perfect fit for your family's mountain getaway home!

What makes this property unique

The view from all three decks are absolutely breathtaking! Watch Gatlinburg come to life with the city lights at night, or enjoy the Smoky fog off the mountains during the mornings. When we lost our cabin to the wildfires in 2016, it gave us the opportunity to build back bigger and better than ever. We think you will agree that the wait is worth it!
