About this property

Bluff Valley Cottage: Pet-Friendly

Enjoy a cozy stay at Bluff Mountain Cottage in Sevier Co. with comfy beds and a festive Christmas tree in December! This pet-friendly (w/fee) 2-bed, 2-bath home offers a spacious driveway and carport. Perfectly located, it's 20 mins from Knoxville, Sevierville, and Maryville, with easy interstate access. Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and the Great Smoky Mountains are just 35-40 mins away. Ideal for extended stays!

This is a cozy little house with everything you need to comfortably stay a while. The best thing about this house is it's convenient location. It is located in between Knoxville and Sevierville. You can enjoy Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, Townsend, and Downtown Knoxville while avoiding heavy tourist traffic. You will love visiting the Great Smoky Mountains, Dollywood, or any other attractions offered in the area!

The kitchen if fully stocked with anything you may need to cook a meal. A charcoal grill is available, as well as a gas grill (bring your own propane tank).

Small dogs are ok! ($100 pet fee per dog - up to 2 only please.) We understand how important pets can be to you! So bring your small dog if you would like. A small and medium kennel are provided. There is a dog boarding facility nearby. Message me for details about the dog boarding.

The TVs are new smart TVs with access to a paid subscription to HULU.

There is a work space upstairs if you need to bring your work with you. The wifi works great!

You will have the entire house and yard. The driveway is big enough to turn around in so that you can pull out onto the road instead of backing into the road. The roads are flat and easily accessible.

The host is nearby if needed. I take great pride in making sure my houses are comfortable for guests. If anything is lacking, let me know. If you love something about the house, let me know that too!!

Seymour is located in between Knoxville and Sevierville/Pigeon Forge. It is a quiet town. It isn't as touristy as Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. This allows for a much needed break from the hustle and bustle! The Food City is located 2 minutes away from the house. There is a Walgreens .3 miles from the house.

There is plenty of parking in the driveway. There is a 2 car port. There is room to turn a car around so you do not have to back out to access the highway.

There is a charcoal grill for the guest to use. There is also a gas grill, but the propane is not provided.
No cats allowed. Only two small dogs allowed. Dogs must be 20 pounds or less. Dogs are not to be left in the house unattended. They either need to go with you, stay in kennels provided, or stay at doggie day care (message me for more information about this). The pet fee is $100 per dog.

Perfect cottage

We had a great experience staying here. We were visiting our daughter @ college and going to a game and this was perfect. A 25 minute trip but worth being away from hectic downtown Knoxville. Very pleased with the host and excellent communication!

Nice. A little dated. Clean

Property was close to the reason why we stayed in Seymour. House was kind of oldish so there was road noise constantly. Busy street kept front flood light coming on all through night. But everything worked and was clean. Great communication by Brenda.

Great communication; central location

The home is on a busy highway - you will hear some traffic noise during the night and especially early in the morning. It is easy to reach Chapman Hwy to drive straight to Campus about 25 min away. We were appreciative our small dog could travel with us and the home shows no signs of previous pet visitors. Brenda is fast with communication and dropped off a fan for the upstairs. We would consider this home again.

Very Nice Place

The place was very nice, communication was last minute. Best to provide most of the information right after booking and a reminder a few dats before. All the additional communications at the last minute is not fair or helpful. Knowing the rules early is better. Also the picture of the mountain was very misleading. I chose the place expecting mountain view not the road and having to walk across the street on a busy road to see the view. Otherwise I would consider stating again.

A Great place to stay

It was perfect. Centered for all the places we wanted to go. We enjoyed the Good Donut place near us. The dogs had a good time in the back yard. We thank you for the coffee too. We couldn't have picked a better place it was just perfect. Thank you for letting us stay there. Hoping to rent it again next year.

Amazing host

Brenda’s house is very clean, cute, and full of special touches to make your stay very comfortable. If you use the back bathroom shower, you have to pull the knob out pretty hard to get the water going. We didn’t realize it and thought it wasn’t working. But Brenda was on it and had her rep out quickly. Maria is awesome!!! We felt silly. Lol Everything from tea, coffee, paper towels, shampoo and conditioner, Brenda has it covered. The only reason we gave 3 stars for location is because the house is on a very busy, high traffic road off 411 highway. But, if you use the fans she provides, you won’t hear the traffic at night while sleeping. Getting in and out of the driveway is no issue because she’s made it easy to turn around and pull out safely. Brenda is very upfront about the location in her description. Bottom line, the home is convenient to all the beautiful places you’ll want to visit in The Great Smoky Mountains! And the home has everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Cute and comfortable

This was our first stay at this property and were very comfortable here. We had 4 adults and had more than enough room for everyone. The beds are super comfortable! Although the 2 bedrooms are connected by a door it still has privacy. The room upstairs was where our adult son slept and he really liked being separate and watching TV. The downstairs stays plenty cool and adding a fan to the upstairs kept it comfortable as well. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you might need as well as starter stuff such as coffee pods, creamer, sugar etc. The house is clean and well kept with the owner easily accessible (trust me…lol) The outside areas are nice with a fire pit sitting area. We really have no complaints about our stay and if visiting the area again would consider the house again.

Peace and Comfort!

This place is beautiful and so comfortable. My 23year old niece and I were here for 2 nights and enjoyed the country setting and convenience of being near to things in town. The house is well appointed and very comfortable with 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The living room and eat-in kitchen is perfect. My niece enjoyed sitting outback with the plugin lights just off the porch. Added bonus were all the lightning bugs each evening! We were traveling for multiple reasons, but I wanted to be able to stay near Sevierville, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg and this place didn’t disappoint. I recently lost my husband and I knew I wanted to spend some time there at Greenbrier on the Little Pigeon River which is our favorite spot! So staying in Seymour is definitely convenient to all those places and with the added comfort of retreating to a beautiful, comfortable and peaceful home. It’s truly refreshing to rent a place without having to contend with the clutter of someone else’s stuff. Brenda has the place well decorated, but not too much stuff. And equally as important were the beds…very comfortable as well as the bedding choice. I also chose the place because it was our stop before going to South Carolina for my nephew’s Marine graduation. I couldn’t show up without my homemade peanut butter brownies for him and his battalion! So having an open kitchen with lots of space was wonderful! Thank you Ms Brenda for allowing us to come and stay! Cyndi Jacobs Florida

About the host

Hosted by Brenda West

Host profile image
I have lived in Sevier Co. my entire life. I am raising two teenagers in the Seymour community, and I am a retired teacher from the local intermediate school. I enjoy hiking and boating in the area. The Great Smoky Mountains are a playground for me! Dollywood is one of my favorite places to visit! I have prepared The Bluff Mountain Cottage for travelers so that they can enjoy the area too!!

Why they chose this property

This property is conveniently located in Sevier. Co. It's in the middle of Knoxville and Pigeon Forge. It's a great location to stay if you plan on going to a UT football game. Neyland Stadium is 20 minutes away. If you stay here, you can easily get to the touristy areas, but be out of the hustle and bustle when you are ready to rest.

What makes this property unique

The grocery store (Food City) and the pharmacy (Walgreens) are 2 minutes away. There is a Dollar Store 5 minutes away. This house is extremely convenient to anything you would need.

You can drive to the touristy areas in 30-45 minutes. This allows you to enjoy the area, while getting away from the traffic when you are ready to unwind for the day.
