About this property

Private/secluded & Sanitized in Mature Woods by Park short walk to Creek Pets OK

Secluded pet friendly Cabin in mature woods, within feet of the Park! Located on 10 private acres and just a short walk to Greenbrier Creek coming out of the park, that flows into (about 1 mile), Cosby Creek that is stocked with trout. Fishing is OK without a license on site. Cabin is furnished, full size stove/oven, fridge,coffee maker, micro, tub/shower combo in bathroom, queen bed upstairs (spiraling staircase not suited for those with mobility problems). It has it`s own fire pit, picnic tbl., hammock and BBQ grill. Located in Cosby, Tn. A little unincorporated, rural community just 17 miles NE of Gatlinburg. There are two, separate, common areas on the creek with picnic tbl., hammock and fire pit for your enjoyment! The scenic, mountain, relatively undeveloped, no red light drive in to Gatlinburg takes 20-25 min. About 40-45 min. to drive into Pigeon Forge/Dollywood or Sevierville. private road circles the interior of the property through the woods and flower vegetable garden area. We have a less traveled entrance into the park just 3 miles The Cosby Trailhead Campground Entrance. There are 7 restaurants, one, highly recommended Carvers Apple House, 2 Dollar General stores within a 5 mile radius and a Wal Mart 15 miles (20 min.) in a small,, non tourist town, Newport, Tn. For those who might have interest in Western N.C., Maggie Valley, Cherokee, Hot Springs, Waynesville is only 45 min. and Asheville/Biltmore is 1hr. 10 min. Interstate I-40 is only 8 miles from us, 6 miles over the mountain, through the park, with scenic overlooks, via The Foothills Parkway. Perfect location to enjoy the Great Smoky Mountains in East Tennessee or Western North Carolina without having to change lodging!

Our host was very welcoming, available, and kind. He gave us helpful directions to the cabin when we got in late at night and helped us troubleshoot the shower, which ended up working steamy beautiful. He urged us to take a trip to the creek, which was so refreshing and peaceful. A wonderful place in the woods!

Very nice people who own the cabin. Very pretty property. The only thing we did not do was go down to the creek because it was very wet out. But beautiful to walk around the bed was comfortable.

Quaint rustic cabin set back in the woods. Great location for those looking to be close to everything but not in the middle of the hustle and bustle. Only downside for us was the lack of hot water. It only got just past lukewarm. We just boiled water and took bird baths. An overall great stay.

We loved the cabin. It was small but had all the amenities. It had a supreme location, especially if you like blazing your own trail. The smoky mountains were great! Saw 4 bears and 47 elk as well as amazing views.

Painting exclusively in her home & "Garden of Eden" having a small studio & gallery. Am an animal advocate & respectful nature lover living close to the land & having a organic flower & vegetable garden has kept me health and active.

Why they chose this property

Because it borders the National Park on 2 sides & has a large mountain creek that comes out of the park with mature forest having wildflowers, mushrooms, fauna, Rhododendron, Mountain Laurel & wildlife. Knowing property bordering the park would never be developed. Don't guess need to say more.

What makes this property unique

Makes for a wonderful stronghold with land to grow food access to clean water with fish. wildlife for food, one way in & out with 1.9 million acres (The GSMNP & 3 Nat`l. forest, Nantahala, Pisgah & Cherokee) in my back yard
