The house was perfect! Had everything we needed for a great stay. Loved that the location was close to everything but not in the chaos of Gatlinburg. The drive up is steep, but you get used to it after a few times up and down! Would highly recommend this house for a great trip to the Smoky Mountains!
We enjoyed our stay tremendously. The cabin was clean. The kitchen has everything you could need and was very organized. The view was amazing and it was so peaceful. The cabin was thoughtfully decorated for autumn. Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely cabin!
We had an amazing visit. The home was immaculate. Ron and Linda, our host, provided us with everything we needed to know and were just a phone call away. The most fabulous view of The Great Smoky Mountains. Spacious and wonderfully decorated with all the amenities we needed. We were close to all the sights and especially blessed to be near the arts and craft district making our stay most memorable. The Silver Lining is an absolute treasure in the Tennessee mountains and hope it will be available on our next visit to the area. Thank you for making our celebration/vacation week special.
Absolutely beautiful as described. Lots of room for 2 couples to have some privacy while traveling together. Check in easy. Great communication with property contacts. Especially enjoyed porch swing. Would recommend to friends and family.
This home is truly a gem and a wonderful place to stay! Our family of four loved waking up to views of the mountains and enjoyed the comforts provided in the home. It is just far enough outside of Gatlinburg to feel you are lost in nature, but easy to get to town to explore and buy groceries. Highly recommend!
The house was beautiful and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. It was disappointing that the lowest level AC did not seem to work as well as it did in the rest of the house, but it still stayed cool enough so that we could stand it. The beds were comfy. The kitchen was nicely equipped. Overall, I would love to stay there again someday

We can’t wait to welcome you back soon for an even better experience!
Our stay for the Fourth of July was perfect. The cabin was so clean. The view was amazing!!It was the perfect space for a peaceful get away with my kids and my parents. It was also just far enough away from the hustle and bustle to be so restful, but close enough to enjoy a good restaurant.
The Silver Lining is a great place for a family vacation. The furniture and beds are comfortable, the kitchen is updated and has everything you need, and there is plenty of space for everyone. The deck has a gorgeous view of the mountains, too!
House was well suited for our stay, plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils since we cooked all our food..The mountain views are exceptional. The location is a little ways from town, but manageable.
Beautiful views from the multiple decks, spacious and everything you could possibly need. Very Clean ! The decor was amazing. The owners response to any questions or concerns was very fast, We had daily visits from multiple bears and cubs. Our family will definitely stay again, I wish I could have loaded pictures but the site would not load

About the host
Hosted by Samantha
Ron and Linda Pennington from Irving, TX: Ron and I have been coming to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park for over 25 years. we fell in love with the area the first time we came and knew that someday we would love to build or buy a home in the area. About 20 years ago we found the community of Cobby Nob. The Bent Creek Golf Club and the views of the Smoky Mountains convinced us that this was where we wanted to own a home. Eight year ago we bought a log cabin and we named it Dream Come True. In February of 2020 we found our Silver Lining in the community of Cobbly Nob. We saw a home that needed some attention (to say the least) and we fell in love with the views. Linda appropriately named it "The Silver Lining"
A Silver Lining: is a metaphor in the common English-language which means a negative occurrence may have a positive aspect to it.
We want to share our Silver Lining with you and we hope you will enjoy it as much as we have enjoyed getting it ready for you. We hope you will go out and explore all that the Smoky Mountains have to offer; from all the water falls and hiking trails, to the beautiful drives and picnic areas. Take your time and enjoy it as we have been for the last 30 years. Our home away from home!
