Cute cozy cabin. Perfect for a weekend getaway. We were able to enjoy the hot tub in the cold weather. The cabin is really surprising considering it is only 400 sq ft. It feels much bigger. Very clean.
We really enjoyed this little cabin! Perfect for our family of 3, our daughter loved the loft. Great location for outdoor activities like white water rafting and hiking.
Nice place outside of gatlinburg to return to at the end of the day and relax. Plenty of space, everything you need and then some for someone simple like myself. I would stay again if ever in the area.

It does feel bigger than it looks! Glad you had a nice stay.
This place is the coziest piece of heaven. It’s so comfy and inviting. Secluded enough for privacy but not hidden from the world. My 5&6 year old asked if we could move in because they loved it so much. They loved waking up early to play corn hole and hop in the hot tub before heading to our adventures. Then coming back and doing the same thing. 1000/10 for sure. Very clean, the host was very communicative as well.
Very lovely cabin and very comfortable and the hot tub was great. Beautiful and peaceful and serene. Everything you needed was there and I didn’t wanna leave.

About the host
Hosted by Lindsay
Our family has loved this part of TN for many years. After returning many times, we decided we would like to own our own place to share with others. We hope you love being here as much as we do!
Why they chose this property
The Cosby area is just outside of Gatlinburg, and therefore just outside of the traffic and tourist areas...yet, close enough to drive in when you want to visit. Our road is a mixture of rentals and permanent residents, each with large private lots.
