About this cabin rental

Nestled in Gatlinburg, this charming cabin for $770 per night is a fantastic choice for your next vacation. We are delighted to host you in our new home, custom designed to immerse you in the best day and night views in Gatlinburg (we rebuilt after losing our last cabin in the fire). Since the reopening in late 2018, guests have already left over 100 5-star reviews. We will let our guests tell you what it's like to stay at Sensational View... "The views from the decks and penthouse windows are better than anything you can see from the Space Needle or Sky Lift. We woke up in the clouds in the morning and had gorgeous sunset views in the evening." "Truly a magnificent place to stay. Views that are second to none, with amenities that made us feel right at home (or shall I say, better than home!). The proximity to downtown as well as hiking makes this location perfect no matter what you are looking to do. With every bedroom having an attached bathroom, there is perfect privacy for traveling with a group. Host was always very responsive to any questions that we had. My family has been going to Gatlinburg for many years, and this is by far the nicest chalet that we have stayed in." "Stunning vacation home. Beautiful views. Just no words to explain the best place ever." "We've rented many many homes and this by far has been the nicest, it was very well laid out, super clean, so close to everything but yet you felt miles away... the owners spared no expense and it shows. Loved it." "The simple but elegant, beautiful furnishings - most are hand made including beds. All just amazing. The unique lights all give it the atmosphere desired for being in most elegant chalet with most sensational view." "The penthouse is breathtaking. When we got upstairs we decided we might need to move in up there, owners and other guests won’t ever know we are here. Best review I can give is I am in love with this place." "This home was not only beautiful, it was homey and decorated in a style that hugged you the moment you arrived! We had plenty of space and loved the showers. One evening, we could not help but just stop and admire one of the most spectacular sunsets I have ever witnessed. They all were beautiful but this one was a very special one from the Mountain. You can feel the love and pride that has been taken in this home." "Jay and Amy have outdone themselves with the attention to detail in this home. I absolutely love the farmhouse style. We had a spectacular time with our family. There were 12 of us and ample room for all. We were fortunate to meet the caretakers, James and Maria, who showed us around and drew our attention to all of the beautiful furniture handmade by James. If we do any vacationing in Gatlinburg, we won't even bother looking anywhere else." ******************************* After losing the original cabin in the 2016 wildfire, we decided to build the best custom home we could on the best view lot in Gatlinburg. The NEW Sensational View opened August 8, 2018. The house has 3,061 square feet, five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and sleeps up to 23, with 19 guests in bedrooms and two sofa beds in the common areas. The first floor and specifically bedroom two are designed to be very accessible. Many of our past guests have been interested in easy access for elderly family members (we have elderly family members too). This is important to us! Entering the cabin requires going up two steps. Then the whole first floor (inside and deck) is flat. Bedroom 2 has a shower with a bench and three grab rails, plus a shower head you can mount or hold in hand. There is also a grab bar next to the toilet. (All toilets are chair height.) The first floor has a great room including the kitchen, dining room, and family room. Our housekeepers crafted another beautiful 12 foot dining table just like we had in the last house. The whole room has views toward Gatlinburg and the mountains with a wall of windows. This room has a 70" TV with a soundbar. All five bedrooms have attached bathrooms. The master suite on the first floor has a large bathroom with marble shower and separate tub. It has great views and direct access to the deck and hot tub. This bedroom has a 49" TV. (All 4 bedrooms on floors 1 and 2 have TVs ranging from 32" to 49" depending on room size.) We bought a gorgeous Marquis Euphoria hot tub, which beats any hot tub we've ever seen at a rental. It is right outside the master bedroom. The second floor has a large game room, designed as a balcony overlooking the great room and the view. It features a pool table, foosball table, cocktail arcade, poker table and 65" TV. Bedrooms 3 (four guests and big views) and 4 (seven guests) are on opposite sides of the game room. These bedrooms have shower/tub combos. A wraparound deck connects the bedrooms outside and offers not only amazing views of the city and mountains but also a neat perspective looking back into the house. (Thanks to our architect for convincing us this was a good idea. We were skeptical but the first time up there blew us away. it's awesome!) Bedroom five is the penthouse - a bedroom/bathroom suite with a king bed and sleep sofa, wet bar, refrigerator, microwave, and seating area perched high above everything. It has a wall of windows 16 ft wide for the best panoramic view of Gatlinburg and the Smokies anywhere. If there is a better suite in town, we would seriously like to see it! There is a 65" TV over the wet bar, but you may never notice it because of the view. :) Here are the sleeping arrangements: First floor Master Bedroom: King (sleeps 2) Bedroom 2: Queen log bed (sleeps 2) - note that the shower has a bench, three grab bars, and a shower head that can be mounted or handheld; the chair height toilet also has a grab bar Great room: Queen sleep sofa (sleeps 2) Second floor Bedroom 3: Two queens (sleeps 4) Bedroom 4: Full over full bunk and triple bunk (sleeps up to 7 or separate beds for up to 5) Game room: Queen sleep sofa (sleeps 2) Third floor Penthouse: King and queen sleep sofa (sleeps 4)

The house is absolutely amazing!!!! When they say 24 hour view they mean it . I honestly do not believe there’s a better view from any other cabin than this one here. You will see neighboring bears everyday which the children loved watching. The driveway is tricky pulling in at first but that’s part of being on a mountain. So over all I would rate this a 10 and will be back next year thank you Jay for the easy communication

This property was exactly as described. Wonderful layout of house for multi-generation family, very clean, well stocked kitchen, soft beds, gorgeous views. And yes, the bears will probably visit and entertain you. We would definitely return.

It is hard to summarize this property. I didn't want to leave and go down into the city, I was quite content sitting on one of the large balconies soaking it all in. The views are just beautiful. We had visits from Momma and Poppa and there 4 little cubs daily. Make sure you rid your car of any food or wrappers before you arrive. There is plenty to do around town, we checked out the Aquarium, shops and restaurants, parks. Spent many nights playing pool and Ms. Pac Man. Watching the sunset every night as it disappears over the mountains. Enjoying the hot tub on the cool nights. You will not be disappointed if you rent this property. Be careful of the driveway.

Our family had the BEST stay!! It was very comfortable, the view was amazing and we got to see the mama bear and 4 cubs several times (be sure to lock your car doors every night, we didn't have any food in ours and the bear still got the door open and looked around inside)

We visited from Cincinnati for Jeep Invasion w/friends & family. We had the best stay! The Chalet is absolutely gorgeous! I highly recommend! The owner sent me a very informative email going into details about his home. Then personally called me to make sure I got it. I was impressed. We saw bears, bears & more bears! The babies climbed in the Jeeps :)…again, highly recommend & will be back. Thank you Jay & Family for opening your home to us.

Our group of 15 came up in our Jeeps for the Jeep Invasion. We all had a wonderful time. The views from the house were amazing. We had a visit from a bear every day. We also saw the mama bear and her four cubs. The house was great with plenty of space. We would definitely stay in the Sensational View house again.
