Perfect and Peaceful in Every Way

The Cosby cabin was absolutely breathtaking when we first came upon it during our stay. There was no detail left untouched. From the beautiful landscaping, to the clean hot tub, to the stocked kitchen, and every little touch of decoration; everything was just perfect.We loved, loved, loved the screened in deck. Morning coffe out there is a must! The property is well manicured, peaceful, and "simply serene".

Truly serine

It was a great weekend in the Smokies! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the owners were amazing. They went out of their way to set up Valentine’s Day decorations which also was my girlfriend’s birthday. They left her a bottle of wine, rose petals and a card wishing us a great weekend. I would recommend this cabin and also we will be back. Thankyou so much!

Hidden gem!

The cabin was amazing and it is soooo close to the best part of the great Smokey mountains national park! The gatlinburg side is way too busy but the Cosby side is peaceful and quiet and incredible. But also only 50ish minutes from the hustle and bustle of Gatlinburg! The location is really the best of both worlds. The cabin is beautiful and clean. The screened in porch is the best place ever to hangout. Jane is helpful and easy to talk to. Would 100% recommend this property to anyone!

Quiet and cozy..

The property was just enough out of town that you felt secluded, but close enough that you could enjoy all the sites. We did see a small black bear maybe 100 ft from the cabin and had a small racoon visit one night. The birds and sounds all around us were so peaceful. The cabin was clean and cozy. EVERYTHING was thought of for a comfortable stay. Check in was easy and our host Jane was amazing and friendly. Make sure you check out her gift shop i made quiet a few finds..

Mountain Paradise

My husband and I were hoping for a mountain cabin experience, and this place far exceeded our expectations! Everything about it was perfect! The interior was tastefully decorated with a Smoky Mountains theme, and it was warm and cozy. The bed was very comfortable, and we slept peacefully. Our favorite place to stay was on the large screened in back porch with forest views all around us. Our hostess was wonderful, and we now consider her a new friend. The worst part of our visit was having to leave! We wish we had booked a longer stay; and we plan to return to this mountain paradise again!

Great cabin - location very remote

The cabin was clean and nice. The location for us was too far from Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge; a detail that was missing from the listing. If you want remote then this is great. If being close to restaurants, attractions and shopping then I would recommend a different location.
