Adorable
This is our second time at Tarwater Cottage and we absolutely love it!! We stayed in the hottest part of summer last time and this was a nice, cool spot, even in the heat of the day. It has all the amenities you need. The entry is easy. The contact with the host is easy. It’s super clean and the beds are comfy. The porch is an amazing place to hangout in the morning and evening. There are birds, rabbits and squirrels to watch. The proximity to Sevierville is so nice but you’re not trapped in all the traffic just to get to it. There are plenty of TVs for the whole group. It’s so peaceful and after a long day of traveling around, it’s incredibly relaxing. HIGHLY recommend!

Wonderful Cottage for an amazing visit to TN!
Our family of 5 just loved this little cottage. Beds for everyone and it had everything we could ever need. The owner was amazing to work with and even helped us manage a small issue that came up after check-in. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

Grand Dollywood adventure
Nana, Papa and three Grands enjoyed our stay at the cozy cabin. Everything was perfect for sleeping and breakfast making as we headed to full days at Dollywood! So relaxing to come home to our comfortable, well appointed cabin just a 15 minute no hassle drive to the Park! We will be back again in the fall. Thank you!!

Cozy Cottage!
We had a great weekend at the little cottage. It’s the sweetest little farmhouse and we all loved the layout. Comfortable beds, wonderful little kitchen and quiet area with easy accesses. We can’t wait to stay again! My girls loved their room with the twins beds!

The cutest Christmas
We had such a great time spending Christmas in this beautiful little cottage. It’s nicely maintained and decorated, I wasn’t expecting to arrive and have a Christmas tree already set up, it really set the tone to the start of our vacation. My kids loved the Christmas tree, wrap around porch & huge yard that we were able to make smores and memories in. I loved how the kitchen had all the tools I needed to prepare our meals & how all the attractions were so close to us! I highly recommend this home & will be coming back for future family trips

About the host

Hosted by Leah Wicker

Host profile image
This cottage was built in 1946 by my Grandparents - Estle & Velma Tarwater. My grandmother's family lived in Elkmont & Tremont before The Great Smoky Mountain National Park was established. My mother and her sister grew up in this house. Although both have moved away from Sevierville they decided to keep the homeplace for the family - a home away from home. We hope you enjoy your stay!!

Why they chose this property

My brother, cousin and I spent two weeks every summer with our grandparents at this cute little cottage! We have wonderful memories here and hope you make memories for your family as well.

What makes this property unique

This cottage is nestled in a small, quiet area - away from most of the noise. Grab a cup of coffee and enjoy the peaceful mornings. We are located 7 miles from Pigeon Forge.
