July 21-22 OPEN;"WOW" Cottage w/ Creek, 5 min to Pigeon Forge

After looking at many available accommodations in the area, we decided on this quaint COTTAGE on Walden’s Creek. I was in the mood for going back into the Cades Cove era. We have vacationed in the mountains and usually our stay was in log cabins. However, many of the log cabins today are pretty much retro. After looking at the Quiet Cottage, I was convinced I would once again enjoy those good ole Smokey Mountain memories. We enjoyed everything the Cottage and her owners offered. Coffee was served up while watching birds of every color, geese, and beautiful Mallards. Great restaurants 10 minutes away served up our lunch every day. The huge Cottage windows offered a breath taking view. If I could rate the Cottage higher than a 5 Star, it would be a 10. The owners kept in contact to check on any needs we may have and yet, they were not annoying. Obviously, the Cottage is historical. I am personally asking all guests to treat this grand lady with respect because - I already have my reservations in for July and planning on another trip before the end of the year. We loved it and want some more of it. Thanks again to the owners.

This was a beautifully renovated cottage on the creek. The house was immaculate. There are tons of supplies in the kitchen including many spices. Everything in this house is wonderful quality including the luxury bathroom towels. I loved to listen to the sound of the creek rushing by from the back porch or around the fire pit. This is a wonderful little get away. You can get to all the attractions in Pigeon Forge in less than 10 minutes and about 20-30 minutes to Gatlinburg then come back to the cottage to relax. The wi-fi works fantastic, my cell still had service, and the smart TV was a great addition. The owners, June and Rick, were very easy to work with. This is a pet friendly cottage... they even left us a little doggie bed and bowl. They thought of everything. Kid friendly too! My 4 year old son loved hanging out here and exploring nature. We would recommend this to any couple or family. We would stay here again during our next trip.

As a long time vacation rental family, we have stayed in cottages/cabins in several states, including Tennessee. Let me tell you about “Cottage by the Creek”.

The owners are extremely helpful even prior to booking. I had a million questions and they were all answered promptly. Even with all the knowledge about this cottage we were thoroughly impressed the moment we pulled into the driveway.

The cottage sits far enough from the road that you hear nothing but the creek flowing in the backyard. Step through the door and you enter the extremely well-appointed kitchen, with enough pots/pans/dishes/gadgets to whip up a compete holiday meal for 20 or a quiet morning cup of coffee and toast.

The livingroom’s window to the backyard is pure entertainment. We watched ducks and geese play in the creek. We couldn’t spend time out on the porch or that beautiful new porch swing due to the rain and chilly weather, but it was a great spot for bird watching while staying dry!

We used the bedroom with the king bed, which was so comfy I wanted to bring it home with me. The bathrooms are nicely done, and the towels are as soft as a can be. Pet friendly they even provided a dog bed and bowl (but we always take our own).

With 3 TV’s, internet and phone you can easily stay connected and entertained. But venture out just a few miles into Pigeon Forge and be sure to have a meal at the Local Goat or JT Hannah’s. Travel a few more miles to the Chop House for their out of this world prime rib. There is a ton to see and do in Sevierville/Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg, but when the day is done head back to “Cottage by the Creek” to unwind and relax.

We give this cottage high marks all around!!

Our time at the cottage was an awesome relaxing time we will never forget...the sound of the water running was the best part. There was also little extras throughout the place that made it extra special. We've never stayed at a place quite like this one...we WILL be back here again!

the Potts family

My family and I spent a week here in March. We are normally beach goers but wanted to try something a little different this time. There were so many choices but I just kept coming back to this cottage. I am so thankful that this is where I chose for my family to stay during our week there.

RIck and June were the perfect owners and they thought of every little detail when getting the cottage ready to rent. It amazed my husband and I at just how much attention to small details that they didnt overlook! You will find EVERYTHING you need there- coffee maker, anything you could imagine to cook with or use in the kitchen, nice plush blankets and towels. They even had a large dog bed and silver water bowl set up for our fur-babies!

The location is amazing. It is literally right on the creek and there is plenty of sitting space on the back porch or down by the creek. A great fire pit. A nice swing- all so you can look out at the water or watch the birds. They have several feeders set up and there were so many birds the feeders were empty by the time we got ready to leave.

The lot is very private and even has a little gate should you choose to close it. Fresh flowers planted and fresh grass. A gas grill on the back that was awesome- we grilled some steaks and some chicken while we were there.

The interior of the cottage is like something out of better homes and gardens. Everything has been remodeled and the decor and furniture is awesome.

I cannot think of anything that I could say to get across just how beautiful this place is. I encourage you to come see for yourself. I have never felt so "at home" on a vacation.
