We chose this cabin for what you see from it.

The view isn't a bonus feature here. It's the whole point. Smoky Mountain ridges from the decks and the upstairs bedrooms, mist rolling through in the morning, and a golden hour that makes you want to stay one more night.

Above It All is a two-level log cabin. Three bedrooms and a bath are upstairs. The living room, kitchen, second bath and decks are on the main level.

How a day here usually goes

Morning
Coffee in the rockers on the porch while the mist lifts off the ridges.
Afternoon
Ten minutes down the hill to Dollywood and the Parkway, or a trail in the national park.
Evening
Dinner off the grill on the deck, then the hot tub as the light goes.
Night
Fire on, a round of bumper pool, and one eye on the window for bears.
