✦ Parking for 3 cars. 4 if squeezing in smaller cars. The cabin is located at the end of a driveway
✦ If you are not used to driving in mountainous areas, please drive with caution as roads in Gatlinburg are narrow and winding. When first arriving, we recommend arriving during daylight for better visibility

Central location in Gatlinburg that is 12 minutes from the Smoky Mountains National Park, 9 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg and Ober Gatlinburg. Pigeon Forge is an 16 minute drive way.

➤ To look up the exact location of the cabin to estimate drive times, you can search for Chalet Vista, Gatlinburg on G Maps.
▲ The Chalet is located quite high up on Ski Mountain - prospective guests should take note that they will have to drive up a steady incline and the roads are winding and curvy. In a number of places the road can get narrow as well. When arriving first time, we recommend arriving during daylight for the best visibility.
❆ For bookings in winter time, you should expect to encounter adverse weather conditions (snow, ice, etc) and slippery roads. It is the guest's responsibility to be prepared for this - bringing a car with all-wheel drive and winter tires would be wise.
- No parties.
- No smoking, vaping, inhaling, injection, or general usage of any recreational drug or substance anywhere on the property at any time. There will be a discretionary fine of up to $500 if there is evidence of drug or substance use during your stay - this includes (but is not limited to) odors in the house, leaving behind substances or litter e.g. cigarette butts, leaving behind paraphernalia, etc.
- Pets are allowed on a case by case basis, with advance written permission from the host only. A one time pet fee of $250 will apply for up to 2 pets. Please include your pet in the guest count and the pet fee will be automatically included in the reservation.
- No blasting of music or excessive noise.
- Each month the house undergoes preventative treatment for pests. Sometimes rodent traps are present in the house - they are explicitly installed in areas where they cannot be accessed by animals, kids, etc. (e.g. behind the fridge). For this reason, appliances are not to be moved. All other treatments used in the house are non-toxic to people or animals.
- There will be charges for excessive cleaning and maintenance if rules are not followed and the house is not left in good condition like you found it. This includes, but is not limited to, excessive trash, leaving dirty dishes / food, dirty grills, dirty hot tub, broken items, etc.


Bears:

It's not unusual to see bears multiple times during your stay. I hope you are able to! Bears are usually docile and uninterested in people. They frequently wander through the neighborhood to look for trash during the day. However, never forget that they are big, strong, wild animals and you should always assume they are dangerous.

1. Never feed the bears under any circumstance or leave food or trash outside. Bears learn to expect food and come back to the cabin to harass guests. This can make bears behave aggressively towards people and become a danger. It is not safe.
2. Never provoke bears. Do not approach, attack, touch, or otherwise engage them. If you unexpectedly encounter bears outside, slowly and calmly distance yourself from them. Carry air horns or bear spray when outside.
Never put yourself between a momma bear and her cubs. A momma bear will get very defensive of her cubs and you will be in danger.
3. Lock your vehicle at all times and remove all traces of food! Local bears are smart and know how to open car doors! They can smell food inside very easily. A number of guests in the area periodically have their vehicles broken into and can suffer damage to the interior. Don't make this mistake!
4. Keep all house doors closed and locked! Especially the front door. You will have food in the house and bears frequently walk by the front steps. Please follow this rule! If bears get inside the house, we will have to hold you responsible for all costs involved to remove the bears and fixing any damages! Not fun for anyone!
5. Be careful with small children and animals. Don't let small kids play outside or leave any animals unattended. Never let them near bears.

We aren't responsible for property damage or if someone is injured from a wild bear. Please make sure you follow the above rules, local and government recommendations and guidelines, and use common sense.


Minors:

For those bringing children/minors with them on their trip, an adult must supervise them at all times. Kids are never to be left alone in the house, for any reason.

We are not responsible for any incidents that arise because a child was not supervised properly.


Hot Tub:

1. Hot tub is for adults only (18+).
2. Make sure to shower before entering the hot tub!
3. No drinking of alcohol in or before entering the hot tub. This is very dangerous as alcohol amplifies how much the hot tub increases your body temperature and can lead to fainting, dizziness, etc. This is for everyone's safety!
4. When finished, please make sure to replace the cover on the hot tub and turn off the jets.

Please do not add anything into the hot tub water. This includes, but is not limited to soaps, lotions, oils, bubble baths, etc. These can damage the tub machinery and require a lot of time and work to flush from the tub for the next guest. If our cleaners have to clean up from your party not following this rule there may be extra charges from our cleaning company.

The hot tub must be completely filled above the jets for it to function and heat properly at all times. Before each stay, we ensure the tub is filled properly. Do not remove water from the hot tub or allow the jets to suck in air at any point - this can damage the tub and prevent it from heating. If water unintentionally splashes out, please ensure the water level is restored above the jets using the hose nearby.

The hot tub is meant to be powered on and remain on continuously (it goes to sleep when not in use). You should only be interacting with the electronic keypad on the edge of the tub for everyday use. Do not touch the hot tub shut-off breaker or attempt to disconnect it from power except in an emergency. In a case where you tripped the emergency disconnect, you should let us know right away.


Trash:

There are trash barrels located inside metal bear bins next to the front steps for your use. These are used to hold trash and kept chained shut to prevent bears from getting into garbage!

Please ensure that all of your trash is bagged, goes inside the bear bins, and that the bins are chained shut. Any unprotected trash will immediately attract bears who will tear open bags and happily toss garbage around the property! This requires our cleaners to

    Absolutely stunning! The cabin was just as expected and was perfect for our group of 10 adults. The views from the balcony were unbelievable. We loved the quiet area and especially the daily visits from a momma bear and her 3 cubs. Owner was super responsive to any questions we had during the stay.

    The view was absolutely breathtaking—and we even spotted bears during our stay! Chalet Vista exceeded all expectations, and our host Andrew made the experience truly unforgettable. He was incredibly responsive, answering every question and going above and beyond to ensure our visit was perfect. If you're planning a trip to Gatlinburg, we can't recommend Chalet Vista highly enough. It's a gem you won't want to miss!

    Our stay was VERY amazing! The cabin itself was perfect for our family of 7. The kids absolutely loved the game room and the theater room. We loved the view from the cabin as well. The kids got their first experience seeing black bears passing by the cabin and seeing 2 baby cubs. They absolutely loved it! The host was very awesome as well! Got back to us very quickly when we had any questions! Definitely recommend this cabin for a group of people coming to stay! We were a family of 7 and had PLENTY more room for other guests as well. Will definitely be booking it again!

    We loved this property. We enjoyed the game room, hot tub, all 5 bedrooms and baths, the large kitchen and movie theater. We were a family of mom and dad, 2 grown children and their spouses and 4 grandchildren. The bedroom layout was perfect for our needs. Parking was great for all 3 cars. We also enjoyed seeing 3-4 bears a day!

    Enjoy the holidays high in the Mountains. Home was as advertised and pics matched well with our arrival. The kitchen was well equipped for the chef of the family. One of our companies is a commercial cleaning company … with that said, we are quite meticulous on that topic (very clean) … Bravo.If traveling in winter months, take a 4WD and be ready for curvy mountain roads. Even without snow, mountain fog can be very challenging so take your time. Views made the trip up the mountains well worth it.Each en suite bedroom was clean and had a unique quality combination. The theater room was terrific for the whole family and easily operated. We enjoyed National Lampoons Christmas Vacation and Family Man as movies for the holidays.Our teen granddaughters loved the gaming room with pool table and air hockey, as well as active arcade games.With fireplaces in every room, the ambiance was excellent with the snow capped mountains in the distance.We were able to meet some neighborly black bears so flashlights are a must when venturing out at night to walk a fur baby or get things out of vehicles. They are smart and we had paw prints on each door handle of vehicles and at the bottom of the main entry. Be sure to lock doors.A couple of take away items that could be valuable additions are: outside upright heaters to enjoy on cold nights, additional motion lights at night, and a little better access to grassy area below cabin for fur babies.Exceptional value with beauty

    The million dollar view home has everything you could possibly want. We enjoyed its views, space, all bedrooms have full baths, fireplaces, and spacious decks, game room has pool table, air hockey, fast and furious race car and 2 separate multi arcade games. Hot tub has amazing views overlooking the beautiful mountains. We got to watch our GA Bulldogs win the championship game in the amazing theater room. The drive up the mountain is very curvy and narrow so do be careful. We did have a visit from a bear on our from porch, we had left our 12 pk sodas outside to keep cold, we found our bears love yoo-hoos. Also for those that wish to know, Instacart and DoorDash do deliver. We give this vacation home a 10!

    Our family of 6 stayed at Chalet Vista and had a wonderful, comfortable time! The kitchen was stocked with everything you could ever need. The view was so amazing we didn’t even want to leave to go eat! The game room and hot tub were a lot of fun. The theatre room was amazing, as it had plenty of streaming options for watching movies. The views are just breathtaking, especially the sunrise. There are so many balconies you can look at the beautiful mountains from. We got to see a bear and it was so cool! If you just love being in the mountains, then this place is excellent; you can just go and relax and never leave the cabin. The cabin is clean and a great place to spend time with those you love.

    We planned a week long family vacation in this beautiful cabin, and it did not disappoint. We range in age from 2 years to 76 years with 6 adults, 4 children and one dog. This house was comfortable and fun for all! The theater room was truly like being in a movie theater! The game room was fun for all ages. The hot tub was wonderful and clean. I would love to tell you about the restaurants in the area, but we loved the house so much, we ate all meals there. We enjoyed every inch of this big cabin. The kitchen is fully stocked with nice pots/pans and plenty of dishes. The ice maker did not work, despite prompt response from Andrew (property management). We bought bags of ice when we made grocery runs, so not a big deal. We all had plenty of space to gather as a group but also to have time alone. I particularly enjoyed the balconies in the morning and evening. We saw plenty of bears! We were a short drive to downtown and the entrance to the national park. Some other reviews comment about the treacherous drive to the house. I have to agree! It truly depends on which route you take. I figured out quickly to avoid Alpenrose! If you are adventurous, take that road. If not, take if from me, there are kinder ways to get up the mountain. In fact, Alpenrose has become one of the family jokes. Andrew was amazing from my first inquiry about the property until check out! Even on Sunday, which happened to be Father's Day, he was quick to respond. I highly recommend!

    My family and I (9 total, 3 generations!) had an absolute blast here! The house was situated perfectly for everything we wanted to do during our time in the Smokies, just a short drive from the park, Gatlinburg, Dollywood, etc. The house itself is fabulously equipped. Whether it was morning coffee on the porch overlooking the most perfect views or winding down after a good day's hike with a movie, it had it all. My nieces were particularly thrilled with the arcade downstairs while the adults were stoked by how well stocked the kitchen was (all the appliances and utensils one could ask for). Communication with our host, Andrew, was fantastic. Check in and check out procedures were timely and thorough. When we did run into one small issue, he responded promptly and worked with us to resolve. Overall, a fantastic experience and our whole group agreed this is the best rental we’ve had for any of our family trips.
