The cabin is cozy. We loved the creek. The cabin is away from the hustle of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg but close enough to enjoy Dollywood and downtown Gatlinburg. Some nice little mom and pop restaurants are close by. Over all great experience.

Family Vacation

We enjoyed our stay very much! We enjoyed listening to the creek from the rocking chairs on the back porch. Cabin is located in a quiet area. Perfect getaway for relaxing with access to Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg within 45 mins or so for the day.

Weekend Getaway

This was the perfect weekend getaway for my fiance and I. This cabin was just as the pictures shown. Extremely clean. My favorite part was having the back door open and being able to hear the sound of the creek. Nicely secluded although there is a house and another cabin in close proximity. This was a wonderful stay. We will definitely be back!

Blissful Stay at Creekside Bliss

True to photos and description! Lovely cabin with everything we needed to get away during the Memorial Day weekend. Host was excellent and responsive. Made s'mores in the fire pit, enjoyed the hot tub, and while looking at the exposed beams in the early morning hours, thought about the days people lived in log cabins to survive. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Nice and Cozy right by creek

It was great. We loved the creek, fire pit, and hot tub. But all mattresses need to be replaced. All sink in the middle. That is the only thing I would change.

Creekside Bliss

Quiet. Peaceful. Easy to get to in any vehicle. Clean. Comfortable beds. Cozy. Cosby Creek was better than expected, was more like a river to us. Near Smoky Mountain National Park. Newport close enough for more dining and grocery options. East ride to Gatlinburg if you want to go there. 5 out of 5. Thank you.

Response from VrboOwner on 26 August 2023
Lex, Thank you so much for visiting Creekside Bliss Cabin. It was a pleasure meeting you and your husband and having you as our guest. First I would like to point out that the description and amenities list does not include a dishwasher. Creekside Bliss is a hand hewn cabin and is listed as having the basic kitchen equipment. Had you asked for a dishwasher, you could have I could have found you a cabin with one. I am available 24/7 for my guests. This cabin has no bells and whistles and the pictures are accurate. We understand not all guests have the same needs, wants and opinions. With that being said, no guest has ever complained about the steps leading to the second floor. I will point out there is also a bedroom on the first floor that was not utilized during your stay. Unfortunately when I arrived at the cabin ( 2:30 pm) to inspect and touch up anything housekeeping missed, you and your husband were already there and had been in the cabin. We ask guests not to arrive before check in time so that we can have time to properly clean and have the cabin ready for you. As you can recall I explained the cabin was not ready you and you said not to worry about it. Had you followed proper procedures and not arrived early I would have had ample time to have your cabin properly cleaned. I take all my guests comments, suggestions and complaints personally and to heart. I have always had happy guests as the pervious reviews will reflect that. I am sorry that you had an unpleasant experience and would like the opportunity to accommodate you again in the future. Thanks again and many blessings to your and your family. Anita

No regrets!!

We stumbled upon this cabin on VRBO and have no regrets! From ease of booking, to communicating with the owner, to the beautiful property on Cosby Creek and well furnished and clean cabin. This place was everything we were looking for in a mountain getaway. The addition of the pool table upstairs made our youngest (12) very happy! The creek provided hours of relaxation for my husband and I and entertainment for our kids. My only wish would have been a washer and dryer for a week vacation with 3 boys, but we knew that before we arrived. We will definitely be back!!
