Cosby campground to Davenport Gap trail condition?

[The Counselor]

This will be our first days hike on our way to Hot Springs. Four beginners. How difficult/easy is this section?

It is easy. Not at all difficult.

If your taking Low Gap to the AT - you'll have a semi-long climb to start, not really steep though. If your taking Lower Cammerer to the AT, I will be less climbing (but you'll miss the fire tower)
