This is our second stay here. We loved the screened porch for coffee in the morning. Our pup was very comfortable, we were very comfortable, and can’t wait for our next visit.Three trips to Cades Cove leaving about 6 pm and we saw 24 bears! That is a record for us.

Host always responded promptly to questions before our stay, which was very nice. Cabin was as described, stocked well with basic essentials and in a beautiful setting close to town. Enjoyed the screened in patio, although it would have been nice if there was a light on the fan above the table out there. We enjoyed our stay and it was very senior dog pet friendly.

My husband and I have been visiting our Smoky Mountains for the past 25 years of our marriage. We have stayed in nine of the cabins in Sequoia Village. We both agree that Laurel Mist is our favorite. We appreciated the cleanliness, and attention to detail. The nigh lights and hand soap provided were a nice addition as we bring our own. The addition of the bedroom and its placement in this cabin were well thought out. The pricing is comparable to other cabins. Cindy was pleasant to work with. We look forward to visiting Laurel Mist in future visits. Thank you and blessed day!

About the host

Hosted by Cyndie Cornelius

Host profile image

I have been selling Smoky Mountain Real Estate since 2007 and managing Smoky Mountain Rental Properties since 2014. As the Owner and Principal Broker of a Townsend based Real Estate Firm, I have been in and out of hundreds of rental cabins. Feeling strongly that people want to be treated to a clean and well stocked cabin in a private surrounding, my husband and I decided to see if our theory was correct. We purchased our first cabin in 2014 and put it in service. The demand was overwhelming, and we soon purchased our second and third. The owners of Laurel Mist purchased this cabin from us and we agreed to manage the rental of this cabin as well, since it has the same private setting and warm interior decor that our guests enjoy. We felt Laurel Mist was a perfect match for our clients.

Why they chose this property

The atmosphere and location of this cabin provide the perfect getaway for the owners. Nestled into the trees and well off the roadway, the privacy abounds. Townsend is a small town that is a gateway community to the National Park. To visit the area opens up the entire park to visitors. This cabin has a warm interior with a huge main living space and stacked stone fireplace. The french doors that lead to the screened in back porch add a bright and inviting outdoor living area to the already spacious interior.
It was for the owners, a perfect choice to enjoy themselves, and to share with other guests to the area.
With strong ties to UT, this home away from home was a no brainer!

What makes this property unique

Laurel Mist backs to county parkland and a nature preserve. This cabin is has great outdoor space and privacy abounds. Located in the same Natural Surroundings as The Cove and Smoke Rise, this cabin will sleep four, offering a bit larger accommodations when needed.
Relax on the screened in porch and enjoy the sounds of surrounding nature.
