What a perfect place to visit the Cades Cove area and the national Park very close to everything. Very quiet area and log cabin was so comfortable. Awesome location.!

Great place to relax from the noise and hustle. Close enough to get to the National Park and supplies. Short drive to Pigeon Forge if desired. Would 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.

Beautiful setting. Large sitting room with large TV. Screened in porch. The beds are a bit on the firm side, but that is a personal preference. Checkout routine was easy. Would stay here again.

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!

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!

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!

Hope you can return when your back in our neck of the woods!
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.

Thanks for the wonderful review and your continued patronage, we are so thrilled you love the cabin and the beautiful area!
Looking forward to having you return again and again!
Book this place! It is so well-kept and in a spectacular location. Just to give you an idea; the cabin is about a 9 minute drive to the 'main street' in Townsend (restaurants, visitor center, gift shops, coffee) and it's a scenic drive down. The cabin sits close off a 1 1/2 lane road. There is a neighbor to the right, but not close enough to bother you at all. From the front porch you have mountain views and there is a cow farm across the road - my 3 year old loved seeing them everyday! The living room is cozy and huge. There are a few games. My daughter's favorite was the small pinball one. The bathroom is on the first floor. The room with the king bed is upstairs - very comfy. Townsend is such a wonderful place to visit, just know it's a lot more driving than I anticipated to sightsee like Cades Cove, Spruce Flats Falls, etc.

This was the most adorable cabin ever in a quiet, relaxing setting. We loved the comfy seating in the living room, and the rocking chairs and swing on the front porch. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed. We’d love to stay there again!Marilyn Pfaehler
