Great communication and always very helpful with anything we asked about. Nice little house in a nice rural area but also not to far from everything. We would stay there again!
I searched for 2 months for a small, secluded cabin and this one was exactly what I was looking for. Just 4 or 5 miles off I-40, close to Sevierville, but still off the beaten path. It was clean, rustic, quiet, and restful. Sit out on the screened front porch and watch baby deer and squirrels play directly in front of you. The host, Andrew, responded to all questions quickly and gave detailed information about the area. You rock, Andrew. This is now "our" cabin when we go back to the mountains.

The cabin was cute, clean and had everything we needed. The communication with the renter was quite easy. We will definitely look into this cabin again
Great location if you want a nice quiet spot while still being reasonably close to Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg. The house was well appointed and well kept. We’ll definitely look it up again next year!
We really enjoyed the cabin. The bed was very comfortable. I worried about the bed based on the overall price. The recliners were a very nice touch. We came to the area during the busiest week of the year. The drive to Gatlinburg was over an hour. We avoided some of the big tourist attractions because of the crowds. We would definitely stay here again, just not in October. We even saw deer out the kitchen window. Andrew was fast when responding to all our questions. We did not cook, so I can't speak to how well the kitchen was stocked. I did miss my Keurig from home. LOL. We did enjoy the fire pit.
I loved staying here because it was away from the main traffic, quieter, close to the Smokie Mountain flea market. I enjoyed sitting on the porch and watching the wildlife across the road. We watched deer, a ground hog, birds, squirrels and beautiful flowers.
Great cottage and definitely bigger than we expected! Beds are not what we’re use to a little more firm then I like ! Literally the only thing that wasn’t perfect ! Love this place
This place was awesome. You're in the woods, but still so close to town. It's very quiet, a quaint little cabin. The screened in front porch is really nice when a thunderstorm rolls through, as well. This place is perfect for just a couple, but it has room for more than that. Also, Mr. Andrew was a terrific host, extremely helpful. We'll definitely be returning here!!
This was the perfect place for our family to stay for a couple of nights. It was quiet & cozy. The owner was very kind and easy to get in touch with. We were pleased with the cleanliness of the space and the easy check in/out procedures.

Cabin was indeed Quaint! Enjoyed our stay and host was great with instructions and accommodating. Would definitely recommend or consider for a future stay in the area.
House was very clean and had everything we needed. We especially loved the screened in porch - great place to enjoy your coffee in the morning or just hang out with a good book! Highly recommend!
Thank you, Andrew, for another wonderful stay. We took you up on your suggestion to picnic at Seven Islands State Birding Park, and we enjoyed the walking trails to the French Broad River. Dollywood is only 45 minutes away. The best part, however, is sitting on the front porch with a cup of coffee as it gently rains. I loved the springtime purple irises and honeysuckle!
I had a 10 day stay at the cottage. The cottage is cozy with a very home like feeling. The screened in front porch was great for sitting with morning coffee or anytime. Andrew the host was easily contacted by email and was quick to respond to questions. I will definitely come back on future trips.
The overall experience, was fantastic. The cottage is rustic perfectly furnished, the host is extremely pleasant. Easy to get in touch with. The listing doesn't do the great experience we had.
Nice quiet stay... including deer and turkey visits... caution on the narrow winding roads.

About the host
Hosted by Andrew Frederickson
We purchased the cottage in 2018 because it was in a peaceful setting but close enough to all the attractions of the Smoky Mountains. We wanted to provide an affordable getaway for families so they can come and experience the Smoky Mountain area and get more of a cabin experience rather than a hotel or motel.
Why they chose this property
The cottage sits on an old country road. It's very peaceful and serene yet it's just a few miles to the parkway. The screened in front porch allows you to relax and just take in the surrounding area.
What makes this property unique
Affordable and relaxing, off the beaten path and close to the parkway.
