Views were incredible. Cabin is spacious. However, cabin needs a lot of updates. You can tell the cabin hasn’t had basic upkeep in a while. Master bathroom shower is missing a shower door. Tissue holders have pulled out of the wall. Basic things that you would expect to be fixed at this price point. We enjoyed our stay in the area.

Location was great saw bear right in our driveway Only complaint was we ran out of toilet paper and paper towels so be sure to bring extra
Clean cabin, there was some things that would be nice if upgraded. Missing shower door upstairs, microwave glass for was hanging off and needed put back on. We had a leak and told the manager they had someone come fix it two days later, but communicated the status daily. The driveway up to cabin was very steep and had tree limbs hanging down low. Beautiful place and saw bears daily, mom and two cubs. The mom bear was not afraid of humans and did get into our car because the window was down. Loved the location and close to Townsend and park.
The location of the house is great! We really enjoyed Townsend. The views from the house were really nice. The hot tub did not work for our entire stay, which was disappointing.
The property had great amenities and was a beautiful drive away from the national park. The drive was about an hour from the Appalachian Trail and the drive through the park was stunning from the house. Coming back to the house after long days granted luxurious living room and hot tub for hanging out and relaxing!
We almost canceled our booking due to poor reviews in late 2025. We are so happy we did not! There are some cosmetic issues with the house as noted in previous reviews, but they did not negatively impact our stay. The house is clean, beds are comfortable and the view is spectacular! We had an issue with the hot tub (a bear sat on the cover the previous week) and Alisa was very responsive to our messages and worked to resolve the issue so the hot tub was usable for our stay. We would absolutely rent this house again.
Beautiful setting, beautiful cabin. Very spacious, lots of amenities, could use a little TLC, otherwise really enjoyed the stay there. Also instructions on tv and fan remote controls would have been helpful.
We enjoyed the cabin, check in/out was easy. The view of the landscape is amazing out the front of the cabin. No real concerns with the cabin, everything was as stated in the description. Basics were all there for us. I would just note that the driveway, as stated in the description is STEEP(legitimately steep), like alot of the mountain cabins in the area. I would recommend getting there in daylight the first time so you have a proper grasp of it.
Very nice, host is very responsive and helpful. It was the perfect size for our family that included 2 grandparents, 2 grandkids, and 4 adults. Loved how close it was to Townsend and accessing the park. It's as advertised and cozy.

Thank you so much Cameron! It is a great cozy cabin and we also love how close it is to the national park entrance. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay!
Wonderful place to set off into the Smokies. The view from the cabin between Foothills Parkway and GSM is incredible. Be sure to get a good soak in the hot tub after each hike! We loved every minute of our five nights here in wildflower season, 2023.

Thank you so much Rick. We were so happy to host you. Come and visit again!
I booked this property based upon two things…. The view and the hot tub. Ot has a great view but the hot tub was a disaster and appeared it had not been in working order in some amount of time given its terrible condition. Overall the house has good space, but it needs a considerable amount of TLC. Simply put it needs some maintenance or the price point should be more commensurate with the quality of the accommodations.

Ok, the cabin im sure was very nice o ve upon a time. The boards on cabin deck were loose. Railing boards were attatched only in the middle. The driveway was so overgrown it scratched my expedition everytime going in and out. Grill was broken, no hot tub lid hot tub was cold. Looked as if cleaners couldn't see because there was an inch of dust on everything. Screened in porch the screen was torn off. Patio furniture was broken.. ice making in fridge didnt work. Tvs took hours to figure out because correct remotes were everywhere..shower upstairs one of the doors were missing on the shower, so when you showered u got floor wet. Like I said im sure it was very nice once upon a time. But I feel for what we paid there was ALOT wrong. I know how cabins should look I worked for a very upscale cabin rental company in the Hocking hills. The top of fridge and stove in stove drawer was gross with dust and food crumbs. But we made the best of it. We were there visiting with family. Thank u.
Beautiful home. Clean, well appointed. View is lovely. Hot tub was super clean! Beds comfortable. Loved the games downstairs! We had a wonderful time. Wish we could have stayed longer.

As stated, the views were amazing, quiet location was great, secluded yet close to town..., I could go on and on, would absolutely stay again. Door knob needed fixed but I'm sure they are working on that 😉. Don't depend on gps for directions, get a map!

Hot tub is repaired and we have a new cleaning team!
The cabin was beautiful and very private. Very comfortable with the exception of the bunk beds and the sleep sofa. Sleep sofa needs a mattress, it is not usable. The door handles kept coming off even after a repaiman visited. Also only one half of a shower door on the master shower. Was not notified of this prior to arriving. Very steep incline to the property. We had a few problems but most were resolved.
Property was well stocked with everything in the kitchen needed to cook and serve 6 people. Having the upstairs master was nice for the folks that had an infant as it is large enough for a portable crib and away from the main area. Hot tub worked well and main living area was big enough for the 6 adults and one infant. Worked out well for the group. Exterior needs a little TLC but didn't affect the good time that was had by all. The firepit was not there. The driveway is very steep and parking can be dicey as the adjacent property was also occupied. Convenient to the Townsend Area. For the cost was a good deal.

Thank you for your review. So glad the cabin was convenient and comfortable. We do have a steep driveway for sure, but it's what allows us to offer such gorgeous views. Exterior updates are planned for this winter!!
