The best location

This location was phenomenal, it provided an outstanding view while still being close to downtown. The property had everything we needed to recover from long days of hiking or a night in downtown Gatlinburg. Checking in was easy, and communication was great. I would absolutely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Bob Howard

Host profile image
Hello,
We are the Howards, welcome to our cabin Wa-Ta-Vu. We purchased it in July 2007. We have remodeled every room and have decorated it with pictures from local Gatlinburg artists. There are many old pictures of Gatlinburg taken in the 50's. We are constantly working on more changes to the cabin. We are do-it-yourself types and enjoy working on it. Thanks for visiting!! Bob & Carol, pictured with their daughter Sarah, son-in-law Joe, granddaughter Caroline.

Why they chose this property

Has a Fantastic View

What makes this property unique

The main things we enjoy at the cabin is the peace and solitude. The view is spectacular of Mount Leconte. In the winter with binoculars you can see the lodge on Mount Leconte. We also enjoy sitting in the hottub and just looking at the mountains.
