About this property

Porch Swing, Jacuzzi Tub, Wi-Fi, Dogs ok, near NP

Welcome to Walker cabin in the Peaceful Side of the Smoky Mountains!

Play games in the cozy living room or at the dining table, take a long soak in the large jetted tub, swing outside on the deck and enjoy nature, grill up your favorite meal. Catch your favorite movie on the Smart TV.

Reset and relax in Townsend. This is the Peaceful Side of the Smokies.

Will be decorated for Christmas in December.

We are a pet friendly property. We allow 2 dogs that are over 1 year old for a $50 pet fee.

*Property does have a shared driveway.*

Enter into the living room where you will find a comfy futon, a fireplace (useable Oct-April), and a smart television. Play board games or snuggle up and enjoy each other's company. Our place is cozy but we feel love grows best in smaller spaces!

The indoor dining table has seating for four provided.

Head over to the kitchen where you have everything you need to make a meal and save some money instead of eating out. We have a refridgerator, stove, oven, microwave, coffee pot, along with all the dinnerware, silverware, pots and pans. If you prefer to grill, we have a gas grill outside and the kitchen is equipped with grill tools.

The bathroom is on the main level and has a standalone shower and a jacuzzi tub big enough for two. Enjoy a long soak after a fun day in town exploring.

A beautiful loft area is where you will find the best place to rest your head. The king bed is just right for a good night sleep. There is also a small desk in the bedroom area if you need to do a little work while you're staying.

On the deck you will find two rocking chairs, a porch swing, and a dining table. Have meals outside, take a seat in the rockers and wind down with a glass of wine, or swing on the porch swing and take advantage of the beautiful weather

We hope you enjoy the Peaceful Side of the Smokies as much as we do!

Cabin was nice and clean and had everything you would need. The cabin is on a property with multiple other cabins and it wasn't as secluded as I thought. The rental procedure was a lot compared to everything else I've rented over the years. I'm sure there is a good reason but it's a bit much and LOTS of rules. It's down the street from Tuckaleeche Caverns so that's nice and close to the GSMNP.

Great location—not too far from Cades Cove Loop—with plenty of space and privacy from neighboring cabins. The futon couch was surprisingly comfortable, and we loved relaxing in the large tub (highly recommend bringing Epsom salts!). The gas fireplace made everything feel extra cozy.We ended up spending most of our time on the back porch with our dogs—it was the perfect spot to unwind. We even brought a hammock and hung it between the porch post and swing, which made it even better. Would definitely stay here again!For fellow scent-sensitive folks, we were excited that there weren’t any overpowering synthetic smells in the cabin—no air fresheners or plug-ins, which made it feel much more comfortable. The bedding and towels did have a noticeable detergent scent, so if you’re particularly sensitive, you may want to bring your own.

The only downsides were the steps due to the loft bedroom, and the lack of a good turnaround if the other cabin has guests in there parking space. All in a all a very good cabin and setting.

Owners are excellent at communication and very helpful! Nice little cabin. The cabin is as listed. We had a lot of loss in our family in 2025 and have been griefing the sudden loss of a very close family member. We came here to unwind and regroup for the new year. To walk in and see two large red cardinals (I’m from the south so if you know, you know) was heart warming to say to least. Thanks for letting us stay.

We LOVED this place! It had the "cabin-in-the-woods" vibe we were looking for but was only 10 minutes or so away from town. The place was spotless and well set up. We especially enjoyed breakfast and morning devotions on the back deck. Hosts were super responsive! I think any questions we asked them were answered in under half an hour (sometimes with video instructions!) We would absolutely recommend staying here, especially if you are exploring the Smokies like we were.

About the host

Hosted by Nicole Schroeder

Host profile image
We are the Schroeder family and we have been traveling full-time since September of 2017. We started out traveling exclusively in our rv, but fell in love with short term rentals when we explored Europe in 2019. We have been to all 50 states and over 10 countries as we seek to learn more about the diversity that makes each place unique and special. This cabin is a family passion. We are teaching our children about construction, basic repairs, budgeting, hospitality, compassion, and loving others well. They are involved in this property and we hope that they will grow to love hosting as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We have cabins in the hustle and bustle of the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area and we decided that we wanted a place to enjoy the Peaceful Side of the Smokys as well. We fell in love with this property for the views and the feeling of relaxation we have when we're here. This is a place that one can truly unwind and enjoy the nature that makes the Smoky Mountains great.

What makes this property unique

This property actually has two small cabins and a house. Perfect for families to rent and have their own space yet still hang out together and make precious memories when they choose. If you are interested in renting out the entire property, send us an inquiry and we'll make sure to find you a date where everything is open.
