> Human version: https://campertunity.com/listings/campgrounds/smoky-mountain-sky-camp-cosby-newport-tn

**[United States](https://campertunity.com/listings/campgrounds/in/united-states) › [Tennessee](https://campertunity.com/listings/campgrounds/in/united-states/tennessee) › [Newport](https://campertunity.com/listings/campgrounds/in/united-states/tennessee/newport)**

Two Great Smoky Mtn National Park entrances are within 8 miles\! Leave No Trace mentality and simpler living, where wildlife abounds and zero city lights are visible\. Motivation behind the creation of Smoky Mountain Sky Camp is to share with the public an alternative, nature\-based vacation inspired by conservation with minimal impact\. The treehouses are quiet, secluded, and actually border GSMNP property and Cherokee National Forest land; the Appalachian Trail at Davenport Gap is ¾ mile away\. Nearby GSMNP entrances: Big Creek is 2\.5 mi, Cosby at 8 miles\. Only 3 to the Pigeon River whitewater section, and accessible to hundreds of miles of mountain biking and hiking roads/trails\. Each treehouse was built by hand by hosts \(husband/wife team\) Anthony and Brenna\. A long history of camping and working in the outdoor recreation industry inspired a design to intentionally interact with nature\. By utilizing rain collection, solar power generation, composting toiletries, outdoor cooking, each treehouse is completely off\-grid\. Rest from your adventures on the comfy, queen and full\-sized beds\. A spacious queen bottom bunk and lofted double mattress can accommodate four adult campers\. All bed linens and pillows are provided\. The treehouses offer private, indoor bathing and toilet facilities\. Every treehouse is equipped with a propane\-heated, rain\-collection shower and maintenance\-free, vented composting toilet\. All bath towels/washcloths, plus shampoo/wash are provided in each treehouse bathroom\. You can dine al fresco in the trees\! The kitchenette boasts wide concrete countertop table dining with four stools, two\-burner propane cooktop, potable water and drain sink, and separate propane grill\. Provided cookware includes pots, pans, cooking/grill tools and utensils, cutting board and knife\. There are complete place settings for 4 glampers, plus coffee percolator and mugs \(bring ground coffee\.\) There is no refrigerator, bring your own cooler and ice\. Unique, spectacular views of nature are seen from each treehouse\. Snowbird Mountain to North, Mt Sterling to East, Chestnut Mountain to West and Mt Cammerer to South\. NEW for 2025: Short loop hiking trails onsite directly from each treehouse\. Maps and directions provided inside the House Manual within each treehouse\.

      "reviewBody": "My husband and I spent 2 nights here and it was the PERFECT weekend getaway!  It feels very secluded.  I loved that we could not see or hear the other cabins.  We really felt alone in the woods.  The cabin is simple and cozy.  You are able to get the “unplugged, off-the-grid” feel without sacrificing convenience.  It really is equipped with everything you need so don’t worry about packing a lot.  We could have just brought food, a flashlight and our clothing and been just fine.  The only thing that would have been nice to bring would have been an over-the fire-grate or a big cast iron pan for cooking over the fire if you would rather do that than use the stove.  The little trails were also great.  Don’t be deceived by the lack of mileage; the incline is pretty intense and still provides a great workout.  We loved it and will definitely be back!\n"

      "reviewBody": "Brenna did such an awesome job making our group feel right at home in the woods. A perfect balance of rustic comforts, VERY comfortable beds, and being deep woods. The property is set up as good if not better than a national park, way more cozy, without the traffic, all the campsite amenities you could hope for and very clear helpful instructions from Brenna, she doesn’t leave you guessing at all, and can feel comfortable and confident in respecting their space. We stayed with two couples in a treehouse and had an awesome time. Cooked lots of food (brought our own cast iron pot for larger meals) and bring plenty extra water if there’s more than two of you. Five gallons goes quick if you are making coffee, cooking, and hiking. \n\nThe trails on property were also so amazing, perfect for stretching our legs out after a late arrival being stuck in accident riddled interstate traffic. I immediately had my shoes off to enjoy the cushy moss bedded trails of the forest floor. These folks are awesome! Their property truly shows their passion for nature. \n\nI live off grid jungle in Kauai and already dream of coming back. I know my brother in Nashville will be there again sooner than I. "
