A Note about our Road: Part of the charm and quaintness of Story Book Cottage is its remote, secluded location. We are surrounded by 100's of acres of beautiful forest, as we are located within a subdivision of mostly undeveloped 5- & 10-acre wooded lots. Access to the cottage is via a gravel, and at times, bumpy road (approximately 3 min drive). We and our storybook cottage neighbors have elected to NOT allow the road to be paved, as doing so would allow the density to change from 5 & 10 acre lots, to small postage stamp size lots. This would make our little mountain desirable to developers who would bald our beautiful woods, build rows of cabins, and displace our wildlife. (Therefore, the road will remain gravel and on a monthly maintenance program). We feel blessed we are able to preserve and enjoy the experience of this little piece of smoky mountain heaven and, we are happy to share with our guests, the beauty of undisturbed nature and wildlife, that is far too fast becoming a rarity. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Wheelchair-accessible parking available ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 1 accessible parking space - Gravel flooring in public areas - Wheelchair-accessible parking - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - In the mountains - On a river - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Billiards/pool table ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![TV, fireplace, DVD player](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/45000000/44380000/44376100/44376090/0c9ce886.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Hot Tub☎Whirlpool☎Sleeps 9☎Seasonal Pool☎Spacious - Tree House Townsend - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 45 reviews CA $327 CA $742 total includes taxes & fees Jan 23 - Jan 24 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-23&endDate=2026-01-24&selected=44376090&PinnedHotelID=44376090&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/64000000/63650000/63649600/63649558/6bc1cb6e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Scenic Cabin on Private Lake Next to Smoky Mountains National Park Near Gatlinburg & Pigeon Forge Wears Valley - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 9.0 Wonderful 22 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-05&endDate=2026-02-06&selected=63649558&PinnedHotelID=63649558&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![House (2 Bedrooms) | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/95000000/94960000/94959900/94959824/26c4e516.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Hot Tub, Fire Pit & Lake Access!

The cottage was magical, better than in the pictures. The accomodations were beautiful and VERY VERY clean and comfy cozy. We saw a bear one evening (he probably smelled our grilled steak dinner).

It turned out to be better than I could have imagined. We hardly left the cottage, everything we could have wanted to see or do was right there. We watched nature hiked the property, had bon fires, played pool and grilled most meals. It was our best vacation ever, it was so peaceful and private and relaxing. Also, we were very impressed with the cleanliness, my wife is a clean freak so she was extra happy that it was super clean. We highly recommend this vacation spot. We are already planning our next trip. ##### Rick J. Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeanette H.

Enjoyed watching the squirrels play and eat, along with birds and raccoons. Saw raccoons eating the squirrel food every night after dark. We also saw a bobcat, and had bears visit to eat the squirrel food in two occasions. The road going in to the cottage was rather challenging and I would not suggest this listing for anyone with a car. We got in and out fine in our suv. We will be back. Best vacation in a long time. ##### Jeanette H. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lee Ann A. Nov 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Exceptional property so good for the soul! It's a challenge to capture the unique charm of Storybook Cottage, a place that has become a cherished retreat for my husband and me over the years. The intimate atmosphere, coupled with the meticulous attention to every detail, makes it a haven where we find ourselves lost in time, with no desire to leave the mountain. For those with a spirit of adventure, the area around Storybook Cottage is a treasure trove of activities and sights. I always make it a point to visit the primary location of Cades Cove Cellars, where I can sample their entire production, a luxury not available at their Wears Valley tasting room. And we never leave town before going to the Hillbilly Restaurant directly in front of you after you come down the mountain. The food never disappoints, and the inside is worth seeing. What truly sets this destination apart is Jodee's exceptional care for her guests. Her responsiveness, grace, and abundant kindness make our stays truly memorable, and we are always grateful for her warm hospitality. When friends and clients asked me where we went on vacation, I shared Storybook Cottage with them and strongly encouraged them to visit. Each quickly pulled up the cottage on their phones and said they would definitely be booking time there. I'm so happy to share Jodee's amazing piece of heaven with those I know and care about. ##### Lee Ann A. Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Suzanne W.

We did get to experience a bear visit on 2 separate occasions which we loved. The only thing we weren't crazy about was the gravel road leading to the cottage. It was steep in some places and very bumpy so we would recommend a 4 wheel drive. You can maneuver it once you get used to it.Thank you to Jodee for all of the recommendations and being a wonderful host. ##### Jan S. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Graciela V.

Truly a storybook cabin. It’s tucked into the forest and surrounded by wildlife. We saw 3 bears, one walked up while we were sitting by the hot tub. That was exhilarating! Zero interest in us. Hummingbirds right outside the big living room windows which are shaded by the surrounding tall trees. A tree had fallen in the driveway when we arrived and the owners were quick to get someone to remove it. Extremely informative direction with pictures. The drive in is a little treacherous but I think that adds to its allure. It’s secluded but not far from civilization. There was a food truck park in the small town maybe 10 minutes away. Food was great! Will definitely go back for a weekend getaway and I’m not normally a repeat customer even if I enjoy myself. I like variety but this place is perfect if you want to connect with nature:) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/251e96c9-23b6-4fca-90e9-d04603cdecd4-1754234204582.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3969ca44-65e2-4bcb-9e9a-dae7e3c10996-1754234205126.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Bailey W.

We loved the cottage and look forward to our next trip! Super easy access to the park minus the crowds! ##### Jenny S.

The fall leaves were in full bloom and such a relaxing peaceful place to see them from. Close enough to attractions but far enough away that you feel away from the rush. It is a trip we will always remember. ##### Bryan D. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Justin O.

Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer H. Oct 21, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fall Break Getaway Loved the cabin and the area! Wears Valley has the shops and restaurants while being off the main tourist path. Road was dicey so certainly need 4WD (definitely something with some clearance at least) given the roughness. We will be back! ##### Jennifer H.
