Mountaintop Cabin Above Ober | Views, Hot Tub

Located at the very top of Ski View Drive in Panorama Point, Haus of the Rising Sun sits above Ober Gatlinburg at one of the highest residential elevations in the area. The views from both decks span Mount LeConte, Pigeon Forge, and the Gatlinburg valley. On clear mornings you can watch the sunrise paint the ridgeline while fog fills the valley below you.

This 1,400-square-foot chalet sleeps 7 across 2 bedrooms, each with a king bed and en-suite bathroom. The Green Room (first floor) is a king master suite with comfortable decor and a full en-suite bath. The Peanut Butter Room (second floor) is a flexible space with a king bed, twin sleeping nook, queen pullout sofa, and a Jacuzzi jetted tub in the en-suite. Three TVs including a Smart TV with streaming. Downstairs, the wood-burning fireplace runs October through March. An electric fireplace upstairs provides ambiance year-round. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to cook full meals. Step onto either deck to grill on the gas grill (propane provided) or soak in the covered hot tub while watching the lights come on across the valley. The community pool is open Memorial Day through Labor Day and is a short walk from the cabin.

GETTING HERE
You are at the tip-top of the mountain. The last stretch of road is steep, narrow, and winding. This is normal for upper Gatlinburg and part of what makes the elevation and privacy possible. A standard sedan handles it fine in dry conditions. In winter weather, 4WD or chains are recommended. Once you arrive, the views make the drive worth every turn.

WILDLIFE
Black bears, bobcats, deer, and wild turkeys are regular visitors to the property. Keep food and trash secured per Gatlinburg regulations. Most guests consider the wildlife a highlight.

We have stayed here twice. We love the location because it’s on top of the mountain. The view is gorgeous, and the hot tub is so relaxing! My children enjoyed having their own living area upstairs, too.

The views are spectacular, better than any of the paid attractions we went to around Gatlinburg (though they’re still fun). Came at the end of October and getting to look at the foliage in the hot tub was one of my favorite parts of the trip. The space was perfect for 4 friends and the owner was very responsive.

Great place to stay unfortunately out of five adults we couldn’t figure out how to use the TVs and there were no instructions. It seemed as though you needed a username and password for subscriptions to services you had at home in an effort to use the TVs. That was Frustrating but great location enjoyed ourselves and saw a few bears Yeay!!

Family Vacation

The Haus of the Rising Sun was great for my family of 4! We each had our own space and the views are to die for! There was a bear seen once in the backyard area during our stay according to the neighbors (we missed it ). I would highly recommend and if we come back to the area, we would definitely stay here again!

OMG!! The Views Are OUTSTANDING!!

This place is amazing. My mom is older and needed one level living. She got the downstairs master and only had the two steps into the front door which was great. The views are amazing. The best part - when we walked in for our Thanksgiving trip the place was already decorated for Christmas and there was an air freshener that smelled just like Christmas and it was so welcoming. We did not use the hot tub but it is very big. It has a separate living are upstairs that's great for 2 separate couples or even give the kids their own area. The views off the deck are the best. But then go upstairs and they are even better. Fully stocked, very comfortable with a wood-burning fireplace. It was the best place I've stayed in the almost 50 years I've been coming here. The owner is amazing too. Very responsive! This house has the highest deck in the subdivision and the best views.

Beautiful mountain top house

Comfortable and cozy....except there was quite a few dead bugs around that looked like they had been there for a little while....not sure why they dont vacuum them up before guests come in. Also the twin bed in the nook unfortunately made way too many creeky and squeaky noises to sleep in ....but the pull out couch was nice 👍 and also the other 2 beds were very nice

The pics dont do justice for the views!

This place is wonderful! The sunrises each morning were breathtakingly beautiful. We could see fireworks shows for as far as the eye can see, including Dollywood's drone show. If i could rate higher than 5 stars i would. Its located on a cul de sac at the very top, leaving unobstructed views and wildlife encounters.

Wonderful Scenic Stay ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolutely loved H.O.T.R.S! Cabin is cute, clean & spacious. Enjoyed the beautiful Mountain View’s. You’re on the very top of the mountain. Hot tub was relaxing and held temperature perfectly. We enjoyed warm days and snow covered mornings. Appreciated all the amenities. Will choose cabin for future stays.
