Pics taken from the deck facing Gatlinburg, facing Mt LeConte, and some overheard. Hope you got your witness those beautiful dancing lights!

“The night has a thousand eyes…”
We know that quote refers to the twinkling stars, but it also makes us think of our view. Come see for yourself!

Thank you for the feature, Adler Peak Enterprises! We enjoyed working with you on our remodel. Yes, the view is wonderful, and we do love that fireplace! The hearth makes a cozy seat to enjoy watching it snow as the Ober Mountain tram goes by. Just add hot chocolate. ❄️ ❄️

Truth! The views from the Ober Mountain Aerial Tramway are fabulous, and you really should check out all the new activities they offer. We happen think our view of the tram overhead with Mt. LeConte in the background is pretty wonderful, too.😉 Classic Gatlinburg!

🚠 There no better view of the Great Smoky Mountains than from the Ober Mountain Aerial Tramway! 😍 Click for tickets 🎟️ https://obergatlinburg.com/activities-rates/

Thank you for the shoutout, Adler Peak Enterprises!
Yes, opening walls and moving the fireplace created a very livable space with big mountain and city views. This was a great renovation, and guests enjoy the open space.

He knows when you’ve been grilling.
He knows when you’ve had steak.
He knows when you leave food in your car,
So be aware for goodness sake! 🎶

Our furry neighbors will be out soon. We love seeing them, but always be “bear aware” to help keep them safe: keep doors closed, leave no food or wrappers in your car, lock your car, and no food left outside anywhere. The bears won’t thank you, but remember this is tough love! 😉

Sometimes little updates make a big difference. We were finally able to place our new metal and leather side chairs at the dining table, and we are pretty excited about the change. A comfy seat + something good to eat = pretty sweet! ❤️
Come enjoy dining with a view.

Not tired of snow pics yet? Good! How about this frosty view out our windows into downtown Gatlinburg, and a close up view of our beautiful hemlock tree bejeweled with snow? The iconic Ober Gatlinburg tram adds to the enchantment—grab a cup of hot chocolate and enjoy!

We post this pic every year to celebrate the season’s first snowfall. This time it was a BIG one, so we livened the pic up a bit. 😉. (Scroll through to see the original.) The ski slopes are ready and the views are amazing—come see the beautiful Smoky Mountains in wintertime!

“After” and “Before” photos, then “After with part of the view” photo.
Goodbye green-on-green house; hello new paint and rusted roof!!!
Also new shutter and truss—we are ready for the new year!

Wow! The sky has really been “showing out” for the past couple of days, and we have been amazed. From storm clouds to a bright, blinding sunrise, to a gorgeous sunset and moon, the views have been spectacular. We never tire of seeing the iconic Ober Gatlinburg tram go past or watching the lights of Gatlinburg come on. Come see for yourself!

Good Morning, Gatlinburg! Sharing a little time lapse of the clouds rolling over Mt LeConte this morning. As you might expect, no tram is currently gliding on those cables because of high winds. That said, we think even the approaching storm clouds are beautiful. Everyone stay safe today and be mindful of others who have already faced loss in the path of these storms.

We have “decked the halls,” and so has the whole town! Will you be in the Smoky Mountains for the holidays?

“November comes and November goes,
With the last red berries
And the first white snows...”
— Elizabeth Coatsworth

The leaves have been spectacular this fall, but the snow-capped mountains outside our windows put on a magnificent show, too. Can’t wait! (Link in bio)
