Location: Gatlinburg, East, Tennessee, USA (Just 5 minutes off the Great Smoky Mountain Parkway) View Map
Accommodations: Log Cabin, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 6)
Our genuine log cabin is nestled in the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, just off the 441 spur. The semi-secluded cabin sits almost at the top of a mountain, giving a sensational view and a simply heavenly feel. Yet within 10-15 minutes, you can be at any of the major attractions of the Smokies.
The log cabin was built by the renown photographer of the Smoky Mountains, James Thurston. Its suite-like floor plan with large rooms containing open beamed cathedral ceilings, along with a warm, cozy décor make it the perfect cabin for a family of six or two couples. Each bedroom has its own attached bath.
You don't have to leave behind your four legged family members either. Sunset View is Pet Friendly! A large Pet Porter is stored in the lower level closet to be used when the family wants to go out for the evening, yet be sure the family canine or feline will be safe, as well as the cabin.
Sunset View is a cabin you'll want to return to again and again for a special relaxation and peacefulness that you can only experience from a porch swing, while watching the sun melt over the mountaintops.

Why the Owner Chose Gatlinburg
We visited good friends, who are now our neighbors, for a weekend visit back in February 2005. We fell in love with the mountaintop and the fabulous view from it. One truly feels closer to heaven in the mountains!
The Unique Benefits at this Log Cabin
We have made our cabin more than just logs and furniture. Everyone who stays tells us how warm and cozy it is. It is "home away from home". A very short drive from the Smoky Mountain Parkway, right in the midddle between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. We are just 10 minutes from Dixie Stampede and Dollywood. For the nature lovers, the location of the cabin allows quiet morning and evening walks up a picturesque mountain road. Only a 30-40 minute drive to Cade's Cove. 20 minutes to Five Oaks Mall and "Miracle" in Pigeon Forge.
Owner's Map of Gatlinburg
Charles and Alice Curnick live in Louisville, Ky. Charles is retired from Jefferson County Public Schools and Alice is still working as a 3rd grade teacher. Both love the great outdoors. They live on a mini-farm with 3 horses, 3 labs (one yellow, one chocolate, and one black), 4 cats, and "too numerous to count" goldfish in their backyard pond.
