About this property

Cottage in the Great Smoky Mountains with Spectacular Views & Farmhouse Decor

The perfect blend of farmhouse and cottage, our cozy private home is a 312 square foot cabin in the Smoky Mountains, with vintage farmhouse decor and spectacular sunset mountain views. The main room consists of a queen-sized bed, 42" TV with satellite, and a kitchenette with seating for dining. One full bath includes a washer/dryer and upgraded shower. It easily accommodates couples looking for privacy and is equally suited for the solo traveler. A small firepit area and a covered front deck with outdoor seating make you feel like you're in a private oasis in the woods.
Satellite TV, WIFI, hair dryer, refrigerator, microwave, blender, toaster, washer/dryer, Keurig coffeemaker with coffee pods and coffee condiments included. Salt and pepper, olive oil, and vegetable oil. Aluminum foil, plastic wrap, and Ziploc bags.
All linens are provided, including bed linens, 4 bath towels, 2 hand towels, 2 wash cloths, kitchen towels and dish cloths.
New mattress in 2021. It is a Queen size Zinus 12 Inch Gel-Infused Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress,
We provide a "starter amount" of these items: paper towels, toilet paper, bath soap, laundry detergent, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, dish washing liquid, trash bags, and hand soap.
Open deck with barbecue grill, Adirondack chairs, and sunset view. Covered porch with rocking chairs. Wood-burning firepit with Adirondack chairs (you supply the wood). Peaceful and quiet - the perfect getaway spot in the mountains.
I follow a five-step enhanced cleaning process. Here are a few highlights:
- I sanitize high-touch surfaces, down to the doorknob
- I use cleaners and disinfectants approved by global health agencies, and I wear protective gear to help prevent cross-contamination
- I refer to cleaning checklists to thoroughly clean each room
- I provide extra cleaning supplies, so you can clean as you stay
- I comply with local laws, including any additional safety or cleaning guidelines
We also have a 2nd farmhouse cabin on VRBO: www.vrbo.com/2013362
The cottage is about 30 feet from the owner's main house. You will enjoy your own privacy, but be close if you need anything.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Cottage is very clean, cozy and comfortable, exactly as described. We enjoyed our stay and the view was beautiful. We did have a hard time finding the cottage as it is located to the side of the hosts home but you have your own driveway and private outdoor area. We used the fire pit and relaxed on the porch each morning and evening. We had a lovely stay and would definetly stay again!

Overall we enjoyed our stay at this cute farmhouse secluded cabin in WNC. Property management switched after booking so host communication and re-booking details were challenging at first but new host was responsive to messages and helpful during our stay. Would have been nice to have a few extra linens provided for people staying longer than a few days. Although it was nice to have a small washer and dryer available, the dryer seemed to take longer than it should to dry. Kitchen items provided made it easy to cook if desired.

This was one of the most comfortable and thoughtfully provisioned vacation rentals I've stayed in. The bed is comfortable and the bathroom is more spacious than you might guess for the overall size of the place. I appreciated the coffee maker with K cups provided, the easy check in process, and the impeccable cleanliness of the place. I didn't need it personally but there are also laundry facilities and provided detergent. The front and side porches (including a fire pit and hammock) with a beautiful mountain/ night sky view were the icing on the cake. I was in the area for a work event so the rental was a wonderful place to wind down and rest at the end of several very long days and I'm grateful for that. Future travelers may want to note that the water pressure for the shower left something to be desired, and that you are asked to pack out all your trash & recycling when leaving the rental. The transfer station to drop off your trash etc is truly not very far away and easy to find fyi. I didn't have much and just ended up packing it home with me since I had a lot going on while I was on this trip. If you are not used to mountain driving, the private (fully paved) road you traverse to get to this site will likely stress you out a bit but you can do it without 4x4 or AWD; just follow the clear step by step directions sent by the host. I would definitely stay here again. Thanks very much for the opportunity to enjoy it!
