Secluded cabin stay
We had a great stay in this cabin. It was clean, close to the town of Cosby and a 30-40 min drive to Gatlinburg/PF. We had everything we needed for the most part. We were comfortable and it was a good size for a family of 4. We enjoyed the deck, the early morning Mountain View’s since the trees were not full of leaves, and the privacy!! The decor, the fireplace, and the comfort were great!! A few minor things I would note. The hot tub is a soft side that sits 2 people. Not sure if there was wifi or not as we could not find a code noted anywhere and didn’t want to bother the manager for a code. We got locked out of a few channels due to parental controls so no Dolly Parton Christmas movies for us LOL!! The neighborhood dogs are a bit much they bark all hours at all things that move LOL. We took a few walks on the roads but the dogs make it a nuisance. The floors of the cabin are a little worrisome as several spots have holes you can step into as the floors are wearing away. We found paths to avoid those areas as they made us nervous. The kitchen had most everything needed for cooking. There were a few things needed we didn’t have but we went and bought them and left them there. We felt this was a good place comfortable, and if you were snowed in you would be perfectly fine with all offered. The only amenities not there would be a washer and dryer so noting the closest clean laundry mat would be helpful if you plan to stay long enough to do laundry.

Great little cabin
We really enjoyed this little cabin, had everything we needed was not too far from restaurants and stores. Within 30 minutes from Gatlinburg. I loved seeing the Christmas lights. Stacy was very helpful and the maintenance man was extremely helpful in navigating around the area. We didn’t get too used the hot tub because of an issue but it was a great place to get away for a few days. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic cabin!! Looking forward to the next visit!
My husband (and dogs) had an amazing experience at this cabin. It was very clean. And not just the general areas. But even the easily overlooked areas, such as cobwebs and dust. The mattress and couch were comfortable. The owners clearly put a lot of thought into everything you might want/need for your stay. Plenty of dishes, pots/pans, towels, utensils, blankets and pillows. And lots of extras such as movies, games, and fishing rods. One thing I really liked was the driveway and yard. You don’t find many cabins in the area with such large outdoor areas. Plenty of room to park/turnaround, and space for the dogs. I do wish the hot tub wasn’t an inflatable one, but it was clean, hot, and fine for 2 adults. The only downside is the location. Not the distance from Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge, as we were aware of that before booking. But it’s fairly close to a very busy road with cars constantly traveling down it. So you hear car noise day and night. The plus side to that is it drowns out the barking dogs. The dogs are up the mountain a bit but the noise travels down to the cabin. And that is also day and night. It didn’t bother us much because we have dogs and we don’t need silence. We also sleep with a fan and we couldn’t hear them over that. But if you’re looking for a cabin where you don’t hear anything at all, this wouldn’t be the best choice. BUT….it is very private. The surrounding homes are a good distance away and lots of trees in between.

Everything was wonderful! I would add a consideration, we were unable to enjoy the hot tub the first night because it was not heated up. We were looking forward to that on the way there. Maybe turn it on and up the night before. Thanks very much, it was a much needed quiet time for us!!
