The location of this cabin is perfect if you’re heading into GSMNP! It really cannot be beat, especially if you’re looking to avoid the crowds of Gatlinburg. It also has really nice blinds on all the windows that helped our one year old be able to take a nap during the day. Host was very communicative. Check in and check out were very easy too.

Yellow Door cabin is a very cute and clean place to stay in Townsend. It is the perfect size for a weekend getaway. Nicely furnished, fully functional heat and air, good water pressure and very clean. Overall a great location-- 25 minutes to Gatlinburg, 20 minutes to Cades Cove, 20 minutes to Maryville. Close to the Foothills Parkway as well. Owners communicated things we needed to know very well. Highly recommend!

Great cabin. You will not find a better value, period. Just outside of the park, very close to Cades Cove and plenty of shopping and places to eat in town. The cabin had everything we needed and felt secluded. The hot tub was perfect after a long day of hiking. Absolutely no problems. We will be back.

My wife was not happy to find hair in the bed. That was likely the most glaring issue we had. Though finding the property was interesting. The GPS was at best confused by the location. I could not get the physical address off the application. It was frustrating. Otherwise all was good.

This was a great location, driveable to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, as well as minutes from Townsend. Property had a nice hot tub on the back porch and a nice front porch seating area. Kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Our group was three women. Since there is only one bathroom, my only suggestion would be to add another mirror in a bedroom for getting ready. Enjoyed our weekend.
