Terry Caudill (Blue Ridge, GA)
Perfect for us 2 and our German Shepard. Beutiful cabin for a couples get-away. Close to lots of things to do and great food.
Megan (Alton, IL)
Cozy, warm, easy access to parking! Great amenities! Would definitely book again.
Morris Wilson (Ramer, TN)
Sweet cozy cabin
BRANDI BORRIES (Shelbyville, IL)
The cabin was perfect for a couple and their dogs! It was clean and in a good location. Our first visit to Townsend and we found it to be quaint, very different from Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge. Be prepared for the incline of the drive and the stairs to access the cabin.
Barbara Wallace (Winnsboro, LA)
The place was beautiful! Very nice cabin. Only thing I wished the front porch light worked.
Donna Welch (Wesson, MS)
Nice cabin, quiet. I was expecting a better view but I guess I misunderstood and that’s on me. Very clean except for all the lady bug creatures. We liked being so close to Cades Cove which is where we spent much of our time.
Debbie Saunders (Lake City, FL)
Very clean and nice! Enjoyed our stay!
Lisa Elliott (Bristol, TN)
The cabin was nice and so was the location. Loved the screened in porch. Appreciate it being pet friendly as those are our family. Loves the info guide provided as well.

We had a great time at the cabin. This is the closest we have ever stayed to Cades Cove. It was only fifteen minutes away. We spent most of the time there riding our e-bikes. We have been coming to The Smoky Mountains for more than 12 years, sometimes twice a year. This cabin had a whirlpool tub inside instead of the hot tub on the deck. I can tell you from experience that of all the different cabins I have stayed at, most hot tubs were less than sub-par. And too much chlorine. The whirlpool tub at this cabin was excellent and was way better than most hot tubs at other cabins. One of the best trails is also in the area. In Tremont, the middle prong trail is one of the best in the smokies. It is not really steep and follows the creek with numerous waterfalls/cascades. And if you hike it all the way to Indian Flat Falls (4 miles), you will be blessed with a 4 tier waterfall. No signage to Indian Flat Falls but do the research (YouTube and hiking sites) it’s easy to find.
Douglas Miller (Saranac Lake, NY)
Enjoyed the privacy and also close vicinity to the national park.
