There's parking on the premises as well as an outlet for electric vehicle charging. A Nema 14-50R outlet for EV charging is provided for register guests only. Guests will need to bring their own charging cables, etc. NO RV charging and/or RV stays. Another rental cabin is on this wooded lot and other guests may be present during your stay, but your outdoor picnic area and firepit are for you private use. Because the driveway and parking area is shared space, we ask you limit cars to two and share the charging outlet equally. Please be aware that the driveway is short, but steep to the road. Pets are NOT allowed. Any unauthorized pets brought in the cabin will result in an added $100 fee for a deep cleaning. Parties/events are NOT permitted. Also, bears have been spotted on our property, so you are asked to keep garbage and coolers from collecting outside. Wherever you choose to stay in the Smokies, we wish you a wonderful time and safe travels!

We enjoy traveling and staying in vacation homes. We started our short-term rental business to create exceptional stays for others traversing the back roads of America.
Why they chose this property
With roots in eastern Tennessee, and all the area has to offer, it was a natural choice to start our vacation rental business in the Great Smoky Mountains. We chose Cosby for our cabins because it’s close to everything, but still offers a more quiet and rural setting.
What makes this property unique
Our cabins have direct access to Hwy 321, the main road heading east out of Gatlinburg, so they're easy to find and accessible. Yet, they offer a respite from the hustle and bustle of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.
