The cabin was in a beautiful location and was exactly as advertised. We enjoyed our stay, it was just too short! Lovely cabin and view. Hopefully we will be able to stay here again in the future when we come back to Townsend.
Everything was great. We walked from the cottage to trails on the national park down the road. Very peacful scenery and close to horseback riding, the caverns, and good restaurants
Very welcoming and friendly. Everything we needed was provided for us. The beds and furniture were very comfortable. The fireplace in the living area was wonderful. We’ve already booked a return and for a longer period of time.
Easy access. Clean, comfortable and inviting. For us, the location is perfect to unplug and unwind. You can hike to Schoolhouse Gap from the cabin. Minutes to Townsend, Cades Cove, Tuckaleechee Caverns, Horseback riding. Maryville is a half hour away and has all of the stores. Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge are 30-40 minutes.
We were in town for my brother's wedding and searched for a cabin for us to stay a couple nights. My wife located this cabin near Cades Cove. The place is very nice for a small family or a couple. Very clean with everything you need including a grill.
The location of this cabin was amazing! It was peaceful, out of the busy touristy areas,but yet it was close enough that we traveled to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg almost daily.We will definitely be back!
Check in was seamless, house was clean, quiet, easy to find, and exactly as advertised. My little family had a WONDERFUL experience! The hostess was thoughtful and easy to communicate with. Overall, we really couldn't have asked for more! LAlready looking forward to returning next year!
