  • What a great experience and wonderful time we had! The views are magnificent and you can enjoy them from any room in the house. The house is truly on a 'mountain top in Tennessee' just like Davy Crockett said. And, it has all the amenities you would ever want. I can understand why it's been featured on national TV. We plan to visit every fall when the leaves are at their peak. It's fantastic.

  • Top of the World. WOW. The views were unbelievable. The house was gorgeous. If you want peace and tranquility you'll have it here. We brought our kids. An 8yr old and twin 3yr olds. What was I thinking? I would recommend this house to anyone without small children :)

  • As soon as we pulled up to the house, our mouths dropped when we saw what was in front of us. Not only is the house just spectacular, but the view was like looking at a postcard. We all flew out of the car and were taken aback at the surroundings. We just couldn't get over the beauty and magnificence of the surrounding Smokies or the brilliance of the lighted cities below. Peaceful is the one word that comes to mind. We all felt like the mountain we were on, was our own. As gorgeous as the view was, the house was equally thrilling. We felt like we walked into a page of an Architectural Digest or House and Gardens magazine. The house was furnished in such a classy, elegant manner, yet it exuded a warm-inviting feeling of total comfort. To conquer beauty while maitaining an atmosphere of sheer warmth in the same home is a tough thing to do. This house had both. We enjoyed our stay tremendously! Our stay at the "Top of the World" will be etched in our memories forever. Thank you for indeed making us feel as if we were, on top of the world.

  • We got married at the home in Novermber 2004. It was a wonderful place to have a wedding with the elegant home & spectacular view. The home is very elegant with plenty of room. It is far enough from Pigeon Forge and Sevierville that you feel like you are in the middle of the wilderness. The view during the day is great but the lights at night are amazing as well. We will definitely be staying at this home again and I would recommend to anyone that wants to have a romantic getaway, for one or two couples.

  • "Almost Heaven" is a home with a truly spectactular view! Sitting in the main living area looking south the entire wall is windows that create at picture frame the subject of which is The Great Smokey National Park itself! The view to the north in contrast is diverse and interesting. Start with Sugar Loaf Mountain with cities, towns and villages as a backdrop and the rural Tennessee countryside. This view is quite romantic during the evening viewing hours featuring lights dotting the backdrop. Other views are within easy walking distance. It is solatary, peacefull and quiet. I surely plan to revisit.
