My husband and I were looking for an outdoorsmen-like vacation spot that would provide fun and relaxation, plus allow for our dog to stay with us, and Cozy Cottage provided it all and more. The location is so close to Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Smokey National Park that even with a week's stay, we did not have enough time to partake in all the fun that the cottage had to offer: hot tub, pool table, fire pit, WIFI, movie videos (both VHS and DVD), front porch rocking chairs and porch swing, plus tons of games and puzzles. We had so much fun hiking to falls in the park, going on walks down Gatlinburg Trail (the only one that allows dogs) in Smokey National Park, horseback riding and ziplining at ClimbZone, plus running and biking Smokey treasure Cade's Cove on Wednesday morning before 10:00 that there was little time to enjoy all the cottages amenities. The only drawback of the cottage was having to walk to the end of the driveway or across the street for phone service, but part of the location's allure was having less distractions so we could enjoy all the amenities this cottage provided. The owners, Laura and Stewart, were easy to get a hold of and very helpful throughout the entire process. The cottage was well-stocked, so there's no need to bring anything but clothes, sunscreen, exercise/workout/hiking gear, yourself and your favorite canine. Thanks for providing a very clean, comfortable home for us to enjoy.
