This is a very nice property with a great location & view of the river. I would stay here again. I would have given the property 4.5 stars if that was an option. My only disappointment was the exterior of property which just needs some clean-up (fallen leaves, limbs, deck railing, etc.) Also, the Weber grill needs to be repaired/replaced. Communication with the host & check-in was excellent.The fire pit is excellent. We cooked dinner in a dutch oven (not provided with property) over the open fire one evening.For interested fishermen, there are no trout in that part of the river. We are told there are bass in there, be we were not able to prove that!

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was a perfect getaway for us to take my recently widowed mother who hasn’t been on a vacation in years. She absolutely loved every minute! Some of our highlights were watching a playful otter in the river behind the house and a bald eagle flew right past us as we were enjoying a fire in the pit!Everything was beautiful and our host Elaine made sure everything was perfect for our stay! Mom is already talking about our next trip there! We can’t wait to come back.

Very nice cabin along riverside. Close to Townsend. Would love to see in summer. Wife would like to come back. That’s a great endorsement from her. We stay in condos and cabins all over and she rarely indicates I would to go back. If you are looking a for a quiet location that’s great for a family or in our case just relaxing can’t go wrong staying here.

The house is close to all the places we wanted to go: Cades Cove, The lost Sea and all different hiking trails in the Great Smoky mountains. We had a wonderful time. The house was perfect for us I even caught a few fish on the river property.

This house is perfectly situated on the river in an area that has extremely easy access. It was great for a two and a half year old to be able to play in the water as well as his pregnant mom, his dad, and me, his granny. It's a very short drive to Townsend and the park as well as Cades Cove.
