Spring Break Getaway

Our first stay in Townsend and at this cabin. Just what we needed! A peaceful place to relax and hang out, 20 min drive to Cades Cove and lots of eating places, grocery store, other places within couple of miles. My 17 yr old son loved the river in the backyard and fished as much as he could while we were here. He caught many trout and even kept a few to clean and cook for dinner our last night. We will definitely be back here again!!

We enjoyed our stay, only two nights. If there is anything at all I would a suggest would be a nice deep cleaning. The cabin had a musty smell when entering but in all fairness it was end of January. The ceiling fans and ceiling itself had a lot of dust. Other than that the cabin was very nice and cozy.Ither

Incredibly cozy and perfect cabin!

We just spent 4 nights in this cozy cabin and had such a wonderful time. The river is beautiful behind the cabin , we loved sitting on the deck and just enjoying watching all the nature .lts winter now , I cannot imagine how lovely it is in the spring / summer / fall. The cabin had absolutely everything we needed . There is a IGA market super close for groceries and a nice brewery near by called The Abby. We were in the Smoky Mountains within minutes. We will definitely be staying here again !

Creekside Charm

We love visiting Townsend and staying in this cabin on the water. It is so peaceful and just far enough from the main highway that the only sound you hear is the water rolling over the creek bed. We'll be back again!

Amazing Mountains!

We have been coming to the Smokies for the past fifty plus years. Our stay this time was one of our favorites. The peaceful side of the Smokies is truly that. The cabin was wonderful, and all was even better than advertised. We look forward to a return.
