Our family has traveled a good bit over the years and this cabin was far and away the best. We loved everything from the well-equipped kitchen to the entertainment to the beds at night. The family agreed that we will try to find a reason to come back since we were there for a wedding.

The host was wonderful and communicated quickly and provided great recommendations. The cabin was very nice and cozy having everything you would need and then some with the most relaxing porches. Close to entrance to National Park. If you plan to spend most of your time in tourist areas, you need to allow extra driving time to and from. Quiet neighborhood but you can hear a busy roadway.

The cabin was awesome. Very clean and stocked with so many amenities, supplies, games etc. the only negative is that the chemicala in the hot tub were messed up so when people got in it smelled and made them cough. The hosts apologized and issued a credit.

You almost don’t need to pack

This cabin is great is you’re looking for a place to get away. It feels very secluded beneath the tree canopy. There were loads of activities for my kids - 9, 7, & 5 - available to use in the house. When you need to get out it’s just a few minutes to the national park for stellar hiking. Hands down the most well-stocked house we have rented. Exceptional hosts!

Awesome cabin

This cabin was definitely as nice as described. The owners provided everything we needed for outdoor activities, cooking meals at the cabin, cleaning, and relaxing. We loved the pre-chopped firewood under cover right by the fire pit. My youngest daughter loved all the toys in the upstairs office/playroom and in the garage. Thr beds were very comfortable. I enjoyed the porch swing and rocking chairs.I only gave 4 stars for location, due to the fact that we did have to drive a bit to get into the national park, due to the nearby cosby entrance being closed for maintenance (not any fault of the cabin owners, of course!) But the small neighborhood inself was very nice, safe, and quiet.Would definitely recommend this cabin. We loved every minute.

Amazing getaway

We went down for Thanksgiving for our family vacation, minus a few major setbacks while we were there, it was amazing. Between the hot tub to relax or sitting on the swing on the front porch and reading, listening to the animals, it was amazing. I can’t wait to go back. That was one vacation I will always remember.

Wonderful Stay

The best appointed home we have ever stayed in, everything you need, plus things you did not even know you needed. Convenient to Gatlinburg and NP, we love Cosby and often stay there when visiting. Road in back of property is a bit noisy, but nothing that would deter me from staying again. The hosts are wonderful and communicative. How’s was so clean and well taken care of. What a treasure.
