Great cabin. You will not find a better value, period. Just outside of the park, very close to Cades Cove and plenty of shopping and places to eat in town. The cabin had everything we needed and felt secluded. The hot tub was perfect after a long day of hiking. Absolutely no problems. We will be back.

This was a great location, driveable to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, as well as minutes from Townsend. Property had a nice hot tub on the back porch and a nice front porch seating area. Kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Our group was three women. Since there is only one bathroom, my only suggestion would be to add another mirror in a bedroom for getting ready. Enjoyed our weekend.

Booking and check-in was super easy with keyless entry. The cabin was so quaint and cozy and well stocked with the essentials Also, the cabin is conveniently located just outside of town, so only a few miles to good food, a grocery store, and gas station. The hot tub was super relaxing after a long day in Cades Cove. Cades Cove was our reason for the trip and it did not disappoint with seeing many gorgeous bucks, a hog, and several bear! We would definitely book again upon returning to the area.

This cabin is private and very clean. Townsend TN is the way to go if you are going to the Smokies! This cabin had everything you need. It was somewhat hard to find when we arrived but once we found it I appreciated how convenient the location was to everything. We would stay there again.
