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.

Cottage in the mountain

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.

Quick get away

We were in the area for a wedding and really enjoyed our stay! The location is a bit off the beaten path but well worth it to have your own space and a homey environment. Property was in great condition with some recent renovations. We would definitely stay here again! Great deal!!

Very caring host

My family and I made our third stay in this beautiful little cottage while on our vacation to the Smokies. We had a wonderful time. It was our last night and our daughter got really ill and had to go to the hospital. Our host(Andrew) was very understanding of the situation and offered comforting words and prayers. My family and I will definitely stay again in the future.

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.

Beautiful mountain cabin!

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!!

Comfortable and Cozy

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!

Comfy and private.

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.

Nice country setting

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.

About the host

Hosted by Andrew Frederickson

Host profile image
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.
