Cosby is nestled in a valley and is home to arts and crafts shops, realty offices, quilt shops, quaint restaurants, dulcimer shops and friendly Smoky Mountain folks. Visit the Smoky Mountain Welcome Center where Highways 321 and 32 join. Enroute to Gatlinburg stop in for driving directions and to see local products.
Cosby is well known as the Moonshine Capital of the World and the movie Thunder Road (1958) is the story of what was once a wild and wide open Tennessee tradition. Moonshining was, in fact, the income producer for many families here and many of the locals can tell you what it was like to "run shine" to Knoxville and Asheville, North Carolina.
A great travel destination!
