Collection consists of six volumes.

Andy Huff built the original Mountain View Hotel in Gatlinburg, Tennessee in 1916 to cater to the loggers who were then prevalent in the Great Smoky Mountains. He expanded the hotel in 1924 when the Great Smoky Mountains National Park was established and tourists began flocking to the area. His son, Jack Huff, took over the hotel upon Andy Huff's death in 1926. In 1959, the Huff family sold the Mountain View Hotel to Mr. and Mrs. Herrick Brown, who began operating it under an arrangement with the National Park Service in 1960. The hotel closed in 1982 and was torn down in 1985.

This collection houses six volumes documenting the activities of the Mountain View Hotel in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, between 1927 and 1933.
