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.

We stayed at his other properties before this and were amazed at how wonderful they were. Unfortunately we weren’t able to make this trip due to illness but the property owner was very responsive and we are definitely planning on coming in and making up for lost time.

I’d give this 4.5 stars. Everything was as described. Beautiful secluded location. Close enough to all the attractions. Only thing that wasn’t good was the AC. It was about 78-80 degrees most of our trip and it was still very hot in the cabin. Only like 3 vents (none in the bedroom or loft) so the air cannot circulate. Opened a few windows which helped in the evening. Fire pit was great. Hot tub was good but didn’t get super hot. Good communication from the host. Overall- good property, would stay again, but if you’re coming on a warm weekend you may wantto bring some extra fans.

Booking and check-in was super easy with keyless entry. The cabin was so quaint and cozy and well stocked with the essentials Also, the cabin is conveniently located just outside of town, so only a few miles to good food, a grocery store, and gas station. The hot tub was super relaxing after a long day in Cades Cove. Cades Cove was our reason for the trip and it did not disappoint with seeing many gorgeous bucks, a hog, and several bear! We would definitely book again upon returning to the area.

This cabin is private and very clean. Townsend TN is the way to go if you are going to the Smokies! This cabin had everything you need. It was somewhat hard to find when we arrived but once we found it I appreciated how convenient the location was to everything. We would stay there again.
