This place was perfect for our anniversary. They provided everything we would need for the weekend. You're just far enough from town to get the peace and quite but just a short drive to the parkway for restaurants and attractions.

We loved this place! Cute & cozy cottage about 15 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg- but quiet and peaceful. The home had everything you could need, (cooking utensils, grill, bathroom ammenities, + more). The host was very kind and responsive, and the property was clean, and beautiful! Will definitely return on our next trip to the area.

Loved this cozy cottage. The catch and release fishing is great, location is ideal and it has most everything you will need. Of course, he was fishing the whole time and I enjoyed reading my book in the hammock. Hearing Dollys train horn was nice and the frog night life is amazing, reminds me of simpler days.
There is a barking dog and owner who yells at it nearby but after a while, the dog settles down.
I would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting to get away from the hustle of the strip. It's close enough to go eat or shopping but when you're on that porch, you won't even think about any of that.
We plan on coming back!

Everything was perfect except the grass needed to be mowed, pretty badly. Other than that we loved our time there♥️

Nice, cute cabin. Close to everything, but feels secluded. Beautiful property. We lived the pond.

The location is perfect. Tucked away in the Smokey mountains, but yet only a short drive to the city. The outside ambience is amazing. The views , the pond, the porch, absolutley perfect. The inside is a little abstract and distracting, but that's a personal opinion.
others might love it.
The light outside is very bright and we couldn't figure out how to turn it off, so we covered it with an umbrella at night. It was so bright we had a hard time getting to sleep, so we just covered it.
I still would highly recommend this spot. It's really charming

The outside of the cottage is absolutely beautiful. Spent a lot of time on the porch. Once inside, you could barely move. Yes I understand that is was a small cottage. But there was just so much clutter of dolls, Titanic memorabilia, just junk everywhere. I kept knocking things over on the side tables, the kitchen had leftover food in the fridge, some of the cups had bugs in them. All in all it was a pleasant stay, just didn't like the clutter. I felt like I was at home and had to pick up after my kids.

This is a great place to get away. I really wish it was cleaner, but we still had a great time. Not too far from Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg.

The bathroom looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a while, dirt and hair on the floor. Grime in the shower floor and what looked like mold on the ceiling on the shower. There wasn't anywhere to set personal items or to sit other than the bed. The deck was COVERED with ants and really in need to be power washed. We were looking forward to relaxing on the hammock but there wasn't one. However, the location was great, back roads to everywhere to avoid the strip traffic.

Cottage over the pond
The cottage was unique as it is built over the pond. We really enjoyed fishing right off the front deck,it was quite and relaxing. The cottage was clean,a little tight,"wouldn't recommend more than a couple and a dog" but it was cozy. Only issue was wish it had a couch to sit on ,but other than that it was perfect.

We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was very peaceful and relaxing. Bed was comfy. Hearing the bullfrogs and Jack made my day lol. We just enjoyed being able to go out rain or shine and fish . The only complaints were the grass needed cutting and the stove eyes were really dirty. We would definitely stay again. Easy road in and out with views of old barns and rolling hills. Minutes from downtown.

My husband and I are retired and enjoying ourselves with a little traveling, and Lydia's Cottage on the Pond was perfect. The smoky mountains were perfect as our windows looked right at them. Would definitely come again.

Perfect for a recently engaged couple and a dog!
It was decorated so nicely and the walk around the pond to see the donkey was nice for our pup. We have had better sleep in this cottage than any hotel we have ever stayed in. I would recommend this to anyone visiting the area and it was an easy drive to the city. Thank you Lydia for the amazing stay!

Quiet and peaceful property!
Celebrating our 40th anniversary and looking for a quiet, peaceful place to go and Tranquility & Serenity on the Pond fit well. The cottage was quaint and had everything needed for two people, including washer and dryer. The pond was beautiful and full of fish and turtles. Jack the donkey was fun to feed and visit with. I have to say that he is more of a carrot donkey than a apple donkey. All and all this is a great property and would recommend highly.

Dollhouse
Lydia's Cottage was a little dollhouse. Clean, private and all the essentials. Reasonably priced and secluded, yet 12 minutes from Pigeon Forge.

Great great great
My little family loved it. So peaceful. Loved the donkey, geese, turtles and the fishing was unbelievable. My 9 year caught tons and I mean tons of bass, bluegill, and one catfish. We will be back. It's a great location just a few miles past dollywood.
