My daughter and I loved staying at this cabin. Very clean throughout. Kitchen had plenty of hand towels, soaps and cleaner. Same with bathroom. Comfortable and cozy den with awesome tv for watching sports/movies. The cabin is set in quiet peaceful country side looking out on farm. So nice! Hope to stay there again.

This was a return stay for us, and we enjoyed every minute of it, again. It is a quiet, pretty area that gives you a taste of country living. Yet, it was close enough to get to other places we wanted to visit.

This is a wonderful cabin—clean, comfortable & cozy. We loved sitting on the porch watching the morning mist roll in & out. The location is great—you are in the country but minutes from town. We loved having all the outlets to charge phones, etc. While it is a 2 bedroom, there is only 1 bathroom which is downstairs opening to the bedroom & the hall—if a person was upstairs & needed to use the facilities often, it might be an issue. This sweet cabin is definitely on our list of favorites & hope to visit again. Host is great!

Guests need to bring their own toiletries ex) shampoo etc. I do anyways so it’s not a problem for me. I would recommend a luggage stand for suitcases. I didn’t see any. Overall… excellent accommodations! My 2nd time staying and would definitely choose again! I would recommend outdoor motion lights for safety. It’s very dark and hard to see your surroundings.

Thank you for your good review, so glad you enjoyed your second stay with us! We will address your concerns, about the outdoor lighting. There should have been some luggage holders in the closest, but we will double check! Hope you come again!

Thank you for reviewing our cabin, so sorry it was not the experience you had desired. We try very hard to show pictures and explain the details of the accommodations, when booking our cabins. We also have two other properties that are one level and no stairs, if you would like to try one of them in the future. We work hard to keep a five star status, and hopefully you will give us another chance! Sheryl Hobbs Owner

While in the planning process of a road trip I found this beautiful cabin. It’s set in Townsend the quieter side of the smoky mountains. It’s a stunning area that is so peaceful, perfect for me! The cabin itself is lovely It has everything you could possibly want/need. I will miss the rocking chairs and view from the front porch. It’s perfectly positioned to strict out in any direction. Cades Cove for the bears (if you’re lucky) The dragon tail for car enthusiasts is a must. I loved my stay here so much I’d be back in a heartbeat!

This was my second time staying in this cabin, the first time for a solo hike, I loved it so much I decided to bring my mom this time. We come every year and usually stay in different cabins, but this one is so perfect, we’ll definitely plan on staying here again. The location couldn’t be better, Townsend is our favorite area to stay. The beds are both super comfy, the living room, oh my gosh is awesome! Comfy couches, and chairs.We really enjoyed the screened in porch too.The sunrises across the street were amazing. The cows were super fun to watch too. I highly recommend this place.
