David and Susan, I'd like to thank you for opening up your beautiful chalet to us, we had such a great time! It has such a cozy feel that it took everything in us to actually leave and go in town for the activities and sight seeing... Personally, I LOVED the bumpy, gravelly road, lol, it immediately gave us a feeling that we were really getting away from it all, and going to a place where we could get some peace, quiet, and relaxation, I wouldn't change a thing! David, I'd like to personally thank your for your kindness and patience, I'm basically computer illiterate and you pretty much held my hand through each step until we got it done, THANKS A BUNCH!

Recommended for: Romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Owner response: Those bumps in the road will be gone soon because they are paving as of this date.

This chalet is beautiful! My husband and I completely loved it! The chalet is very clean and comfy with a beautiful view from the dining room as well as the jacuzzi. I will most definitely be coming back! Absolutely loved the fireplace! It wasn't hard to find, and felt safe with the guard at the entrance. :) Thank you David and Susan for all of your help!

This was a great place for my wife and I to spend our little vacation in Tennessee. It was comfortable and clean. David was nice enough to check in on us the first day to make sure we settled in ok. It's got plenty of privacy. I will mention that in order to get to it you will have to drive on a fair amount of rough gravel road with steep inclines and sharp turns. The Chalet was worth the price and the drive though.

We had the best time here! Everything you could need is available in this chalet. Very private..perfect for couples who want time away. We had the best time shooting pool & playing monopoly, all provided by the owners. The owners are very responsive, guards at gate very friendly & helpful. The road is a bit rough but that is the only flaw. We will be back! Thanks so much!

Recommended for: Romantic getaway

Owner response: Yes the road is rough and it needs to be graded. The homeowners are trying to get enough money together to pave it. We all vote this October and I pray it will finally get the approval. Susan & I enjoy so much that others can enjoy our home as much as we do. We are blessed to have a place to just relax in the peace. We love sharing it with others who can do the same.

We just returned home from a weeks stay at Sunset View. It was our 2nd time staying there and the Chalet is absolutely beautiful ! We spent our honeymoon there last year and returned for our 1st anniversary this year. The road leading to the Chalet is a little rough,but once you get there you won't be disappointed. The Chalet is exactly as described and the view is amazing. We were a little disappointed that the gas fireplace wasn't available as it was at the same time last year,but Dave explained to us that because some visitors misused the fireplace,it is necessary to shut it off in the spring. Thank you Dave and Susan for allowing us to stay in you wonderful mountain home .

Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Owner response: I guess we need to call the HOA and have them grade the road. Sorry about the fireplace but when uncaring guest put the fireplace on when they run the air condition we need to shut it off. We try to keep our rental cost down but paying for propane is costly.

This was my first time to Tennessee and me and my husband decided to go to the mountains for our honeymoon. When we first arrived at the chalet and looked at the view we thought it was breathtaking. As we walked in the doors it was so nice it felt so relaxing. We enjoyed our stay there. See we have three children so we don't really get a chance to relax so this was so nice for us to relax in the hot tub. I couldnt have picked a better place to stay. All I can say is the place is beautiful. I hope to return again. I would recommend this place to everyone.

The description for this property is very precise, in fact the description does not serve it justice enough! Upon arrival we were greeted by wild turkey in the front yard and in the chalet, a beautiful and clean decor with a "just like home" feel and a fresh clean smell. The kitchen was fully equipped with cooking essentials and a gas grill with plenty of fuel. The hot tub was fantastic at a relaxing 106 degrees and found ourselves missing it when we got home. After a soak in the hot tub we enjoyed a cold delicious frosty malt beverage on the deck while taking in the scenery and enjoying the sounds of absolute peace. Dave and Susan were readily available and even contacted us during our stay to see if we any questions or concerns and how we were enjoying our stay. We recommend this VRBO to anyone wanting to get away from it all or drive a few minutes down the road for endless fun and entertainment.

As previously stated in other reviews, the photos of this property do not do it justice....this is a perfect place to stay, beautifully decorated and meticulously clean. I have stayed at numerous properties around the Gatlinburg area, homes offered by resorts, real estate agencies and private owners, this is no doubt the nicest. Absolutely loved it.

Owner response: Tanya, Susan & I are so pleased that you enjoyed our second home in the mountains. We take pride to make sure our quest enjoy our home. Our best Dave & Susan

Hi David and Susan! Bob and I just want to let you know how very much we appreciate your sharing your home with us. It is just so cozy and inviting! We were able to have a very restful visit, which was much needed. The flowers that Susan planted are so sweet! While we were there We had some rain which kept them from drying out and looking perky! We wish you both a wonderful summer and hope to be able to stay again in your lovely home. Sincerely, Gay

We had an awesome honeymoon at your chalet. It was perfect! The pictures online do not do the chalet justice. After reading the guest book we got several great food/adventure ideas that made our stay more enjoyable, thanks for the tips. You guys have a beautiful place and are so kind. Thank you so much for letting us stay there and we can't wait to come back!

A Wonderful Week

Guest P & K
Date of stay 01/09/11
Review Submitted 01/19/11

Everything was wonderful and just like the owners portray it to be. We were snowed in with 6-8 inches but that just added to the experience. With 2 gas fireplaces, the hot tub and the tankless hot water system, we didn't WANT to leave. The owners advised us to get chains for the car when the winter storm warning was posted prior to our arrival. We were glad to have taken their advice. It is a very private location in a developed community so there is a 24 hour guard shack on the grounds if their had been an emergency. It is an ideal place to celebrate an anniversary or honeymoon, but we would feel comfortable taking our children there as well. The owners truly make you feel like you are their guests and not a "renter". The Chalet is decorated like a second home and not like a rental investment. We couldn't have been more pleased.

Recommended for: Age 55+, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Owner response: Thanks a bunch guys, Susan & I feel love to hear that you love Sunset View just like us. Hope you will visit again for the cool guy price. Our best Dave & Susan Schilt

Hi Dave, I never did have the chance to get back with you after our trip this January. As you know, I'm in nursing school and so my life stays pretty busy. With Brian just getting out of the Marine Corps, it has been a whirlwind for the both of us. At any rate, we had an amazing time at your chalet. It was absolutely gorgeous! Everything was so cozy and tucked away. We just can't begin to tell you how romantic and wonderful our stay was. It was the perfect getaway! And we got lots of snow, which was a plus! Again, thank you so much for giving us such a great deal and allowing us the opportunity to stay there. If it wasn't for your generosity, I wouldn't have been able to afford such a great, and much needed vacation with my loved one. We really hope to book it again for next year and stay even longer! Thanks a lot :)

Hello David and Susan, First of all - your home is lovely. The decor is perfect. Designed for comfort and beauty. You have great taste. This is not just a run of the mill mountain chalet. We really like it here and the view is becoming brilliant (orange, gold, red yellow). WOW! You may have seen we had some weather this morning - lost power for awhile, but was very quickly restored. That was nice - and watching the storm from here is very interesting. The mountains disappeared - then returned :). No damage to your home - although a tree did come down in the vacant lot across the road. And, several small limbs down - we have those picked up.

Hi Dave & Susan, We enjoyed our stay at the chalet! We loved the decor, and the kids enjoyed the playstation, pool table and hot tub. Everything we needed was there so there was no need to leave just relax. The pictures do NOT do this place justice, the views were amazing! The chalet was spotless not even a speck of dust, I felt at home while we were there. We will definitely be coming back for more! We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay or a nicer couple to rent from. Dave & Susan you guys are wonderful people and feel like family to us! Thanks so much for sharing your mountain home with us!! April, Mark, Kaden & Caylee 5/28/10- 5/31/10

Dave, We wanted to send you some additional pictures that we took of the outside of the chalet in the snow. And again to tell you how much we enjoyed our stay. Having the chalet decorated for Christmas and especially the snow made the start of our vacation perfect. The views were fantastic and the entire atmosphere was so relaxing. I can see why you love it! We've been coming to the Smokey Mountains off and on over the last 15 years and your chalet is the only place we've stayed that we know we want to come back to.

We wanted to thank you very much for letting us stay at your beautiful home. You should be very proud of your home in the mountains. The decor was excellent and everything was great. We had a wonderful time and it was very relaxful and very peaceful and quiet. We look forward to staying there again. We enjoyed the Christmas decorations also and the fireplace. We had two inches of snow on Saturday and it was beautiful. We hope all of you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and thanks again for letting us rent from you. We are looking forward for another. stay with you.

Hi David and Susan, I just wanted to thank you for a wonderful stay at your Smoky Mountain home. Sorry we couldn't take you up on your offer of additional nights. I would have loved to stay longer but we had to get back home. Everything was perfect. After days of hiking. and tennis, the hot tub was a welcome time of relaxing. We were comfortable in every way. We look forward to the possibility of renting from you again. God Bless, Diane and Jim

From our guest book: "We are so glad you called us & pushed your chalet! It is all you said and more. We have had the most relaxing week! We got to use the fireplace daily and really enjoyed the hottub. We, too, were visited by the turkeys: 22 to be exact! What a sight! It rained every day, so we spent a lot of time here and could not have enjoyed our trip any more. We celebrated our 7th anniversary here & could not have picked a more romantic spot. Thank you so much for sharing your home. We love it here and are planning to call again soon to rent for next year! Thanks so much and God Bless. Merry Christmas. Cissy & Brian"

We just got back home from renting your chalet, and it was wonderful. Everything was so perfect, and I could not believe how clean it was. My husband and I just can't stop talking about it, and I have told my whole family how wonderful it was. I have a birthday on Feb 13, and I see that it is already booked that weekend. We were wondering about the following weekend.

We stayed in Shagbark October of 2007. It's a gated community so not alot of cars driving around. These are some of the prettiest mountains outside the park. The cabin we rented was up on top of a mountain and had a spectacular view. I've stayed in a few other spots in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge and I would definately recommend Shagbark. I am planning on returning to Shagbark this fall. We rented a cabin with Sunset Cottages back in '96 it was very nice. Hope this helps!

I just can’t say enough about your home. We got to go hiking at Roaring Fork and visit Gatlinburg (loved it) and we also went to Dollywood. We had the best time and we hope to go back again next year.
