Cute little house

We had a great time here for 2 nights. My husband & I commented on how comfortable the king size mattress was! We want to buy that one. My 10 year old slept right on the couch. I liked how the couch had a cover on it. Having the washer/dryer was a big positive for us! I know you can hear the highway like other ppl have commented but it didn’t bother us.

Country getaway

Small, clean and cozy home that was perfect for our small family. About 40 min to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Bed was comfortable but you're extremely close to the interstate and can hear the tractor trailers so pack some earplugs if you're a light sleeper. They have two friendly horses that my kids loved feeding. They seemed to love the apples we fed them. Owners are attentive and readily available if needed. We'd gladly stay here again. Thanks for the memories.

Nice cottage convenient to I-40 and GSMNP

Cottage is a quick level drive. Owner is friendly. Views are pretty, and you can stroll along the driveway and road bordering the pasture. It seems spacious inside, despite the small square footage. Very comfortable except for noise levels. The Interstate is just up the hill, and large passing trucks can cause a rumble. The wall-mounted AC or the dehumidifier can drown out most of the highway sounds, so our sleep was not disturbed.

Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location
The house was infested with ants, spiders, centipedes, ticks and some roaches. We stayed for 4 days and had to clean 3 days straight to try to get the insects out. They just kept on coming in the house. They would get in the beds, furniture and the cabinets. They were in the bathroom and all over the place. Let the host know and he got an exterminator to treat the place after we left after 4 days. Unfortunately my wife has a condition that she has to avoid pesticides or she gets a reaction. So we could not go back for 5 days. We hadto pay for a other place to stay. Here are some pictures, but we had many more

Cozy Country Cottage

This 1 bedroom cottage was located away from the bustle of traffic. Easy access to I-40 for getting around. Owners were quickly responsive. King Bed was comfortable; however pull out sofa not comfortable for an adult. It is well stocked with linens and towels, but kitchen could use more drinking glasses. Overall a satisfactory place for a getaway with your pet.

Beautiful Views

We have vacationed in Cosby/Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge for 20 years. We have stayed in cabins as well as hotels. We picked this cottage because it was affordable and in lovely Cosby. We love horses and pretty farm views, so that was a plus! We were in the smallest of the 2 rentals on property and unfortunately, the interstate sounds were so loud that we didn’t want to spend very much time at the cottage. We were so close to the interstate (directly behind/above cottage), that we could see headlights and hear tractor trailers. For us, it took away from the ambience and from our vacation. If you are looking for a quiet place, this is not it. However, the pretty farm views and the beautiful horses, the clean cottage, and the super-responsive owner still makes this a good rental.

Relaxing

This house was very pretty. I only have 2 negative things to say. The fold out bed was very very very uncomfortable. Our kids were suppose to sleep on it but they complained the bed hurt. So my husband and I gave the kids the bedroom and we slept on the fold out bed. The first night it was uncomfortable, the second night my husband could barely get up and out the bed. The third night we just slept on couch laying on each other. The second thing was really an issue just that the TV would lose connection a few times while watching a show. Other than that we liked the set up and the host was amazing. My kids was able to feed the horses, they are still talking about Pepper!.

Great owners

Cabin was clean and as advertised. We brought our 2 dogs and 17 month old for a few days. After the first night of the AC not working, the owner spent Saturday replacing it. Really impressed with the responsiveness and taking care of our issue immediately. Would love to come and stay again. Our son also loved feeding the horses. There was plenty of room for his pack-n-play in the bedroom. Try out the bidet!

Scenery was absolutely beautiful!

beautiful scenery of the mountains and gorgeous horses on the property. Very quiet and peaceful. We had a great time, check in was the easiest, and the house was just the perfect size. Finding any grocery store was pretty far out but their was an apple orchard market close by and a couple local restaurants. Not the furthest drive from the Smokey’s if you’re staying for that reason. We loved it.
