HOW DID "MT LeCONTE VISTA" GET IT'S NAME?
"Mt LeConte Vista" is named for the cabin's great views of famous Mount LeConte, the 3rd highest peak in the National Park at 6,593 ft. above sea level. In addition to views of famous Mount LeConte, the cabin offers views of Downtown Gatlinburg and fantastic views of Ober Gatlinburg ski area. The night view of Downtown is very pretty! You'll enjoy sitting out on the main level deck at night to star gaze and see the twinkling lights of Downtown.
The direct views of Ober Gatlinburg ski resort/amusement park are a very special feature of "Mt LeConte Vista". From both decks and nearly every room in the cabin you will have closeup, direct views of Ober Gatlinburg. It's truly a unique experience to see the ski area from above. We enjoy watching the activity at Ober Gatlinburg in ALL four seasons and we hope you will too!

We really loved this chalet! The views were fantastic! The Morels are so organized and we recieved our security deposit back within 3 days of our return home. We loved the lay out of the house and it held our family of 7 just perfectly. Our only reccomendation would be to replace the charcoal grill with a gas grill! Thanks, guys, for letting us stay in your lovely home!

"Its all about the view" says it all. Mt LeConte Vista met our expectations. The condo was well equipped with all the necessary cooking utensils and cook ware. The condo was furnished with comfortable, feel at home furniture. Weather was outstanding. Only thing missing was the snow. (Had a dusting) Val and Renee were easy to work with, and we would definitely stay again at the Mt LeConte Vista.

June 2010 our family and several friends stayed in the chalet for a week and it was simply wonderful. The chalet does indeed have incredible views and the decor is very nice, (my husband and I found it amazing that the large oil painting in the stairwell of the hot air balloons is almost identical to one we have on our living room wall.) The parking was a bit small but we had several vehicles and a trailer so it was to be expected. Getting to the chalet is half the fun, the drive by motorcycle was quite an experience at night but the views more than made up for it. We really enjoy motorcycling through the area and make a point to ride "The Dragon" each time we are there. This time on a ride through Cades Cove we were stuck in a "bear jam" as everyone stopped to take photos of a momma bear and her 3 cubs, along with various other wildlife wandering the area. We were able to get some photos of my dad standing on the deck when we visited Ober Gatlinburg, again what a view!!!!! The chalet had just about everything we needed aside from the various sundry items, like detergent, salt and pepper, coffee, etc, things you would normally bring anyway. Val and Renee were great to work with and easy to get in touch with if you have a problem. We will definitely return if we have the occasion to rent a larger cabin and have recommended the site to our friends. If your feeling adventurous ride a motorcycle around the area and the Smoky mountains, it's simply beautiful. We want to come back and go zip lining again, it was a blast! Simply put you cannot go wrong if you rent this chalet, it is well worth it!

Had a great time at Mt. LeConte Vista last weekend. The chalet was very nice and roomy. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could need. (There was only 2 of us but the kitchen was equipped to accomodate a large crowd.) The view is absolutely beautiful. Would love to be there when the ski slopes were active. My husband very much enjoyed the suana. We saw a bear as we were making our way home one night. It crossed the road right in front of us.The drive up the mountain is absolutely breath taking it is so pretty. We were celebrating our 40th Wedding Anniversary so this trip was special for us. We were not disappointed and would recommend this chalet to anyone!

We just returned from a long weekend in the Gatlinburg area. This chalet is exactly as described, the location was perfect. I do have to agree that the Ski Mtn. Rd. was very steep but the view was great! The chalet was clean and well maintained. We arrived to find it snowing which was a plus for us. The roads are cleared very quickly so you can go into downtown Gatlinburg or wherever you had planned to go. The view from this chalet was absolutely outstanding. You can see forever! Val was extremely helpful with directions to the chalet as well as suggesting restaurants and activities to do while you are there. We would recommend this property to our friends.

This is our second trip to the mountains and we had a wonderful time at the chalet. The views were gorgeous and the chalet had everything we needed for a family vacation. We had tons of seating for family dinners, with ample plates and silverware. That is hard to find at rentals! Each room has its own tv and that also afforded us alone time if necessary. Great trip!

This is a lovely property with beautiful views. If you did nothing but relax and enjoy the scenery, you would be satisfied. For those who enjoy a little more action, skiing and snowboarding is minutes away. Note of things to bring: firestarter logs, lighter, dishwasher detergent, and frying pan.
Owner response:Deborah, We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay at Mt LeConte Vista. The views are amazing!! And, thank you for letting us know that the frying pans were missing. During our recent trip to the cabin, we added a new set of stainless steel pots, a new griddle and 2 new frying pans. We appreciate it when guests let us know what items are missing or need to be replaced.

We arrived on Sat January 8th, and were welcomed by 12”’s of snow, which was a great surprise. We used our Garmin, which took use us via a nerve reckoning route. I suggest anyone going up while it is snowing, take Ski Mountain Road, then right on Willey Oakley Road. Make a sharp hairpin turn left onto Sky View Drive. It is a few more miles out of the way, but Gatlinburg keeps the roads treated throughout the day, from 8AM – 9PM daily, which makes going up and down the mountain less stressful. The views are amazing, and you feel like you’re on top of the world looking down. You have amazing views overlooking the Ski Resort, the Gatlinburg Tram, and downtown Gatlinburg. It was a true relaxing stay. The house was great, with views from every room, a well maintained Hot Tub, and Dry Sauna. Sunday evening it snowed another 6”’s, and by mid week, we had a total of 2 feet of snow, but the roads were always treated and 90% clean. The house was well equipped with everything that you’d need, even a Snow Shovel. We are definitely planning on returning to this property again, and checking out the other properties that are owned by Sea & Sky Rentals in Gatlinburg. The owner(s) were extremely easy to work with and communicate with. Their contract(s) are straight forward and self explanatory. I’d refer this property to anyone who enjoys relaxing, breathing taking views. Thanks for everything Val & Renee
