Smoky Mountain Adventure
Townsend is delightful. The location was convenient for our itinerary. The cabin was immaculate, comfortable and simple. The property was very peaceful. Enjoyed sitting by and walking along the river. This time of year the water level was very low.

Bear themed cabin by the river
This cabin is an ideal spot to enjoy the pigeon river humming along in the sunshine from the porch. The interior is fabulously designed. Our only complaint is that the shower was not fit with safety bars and had a very slippery surface.

Delightful spot in Townsend
My partner just finished a long run of radiation and we desperately needed the "quiet side of the Smokeys" The cabin overlooks the Little River and we enjoyed our morning coffee listening to the sound of water over the rocks. During the summer the "tubers" start floating the river around 10 a.m. - if the sound of laughter and folks having fun - you may want to stay inside. It is a joyful part of this cabin. (BTW - it was families enjoying - nothing crazy) It is located close to the grocery, delightful coffee shop and great local eateries. One of my priorities in a rental is a comfortable bed and this one fit the bill. We ate at several local restaurants and of course took a drive to Cades Cove.

The property was very well maintained and we were impressed by the cleanliness. Kitchen and bathroom were well stocked with supplies. Our favorite part was sitting on the swings looking at the river and watching the geese and their families.

It was a great place for us to stay for go topless jeep ride. Only thing I could recommend is updating tv stations or allow more WiFi usage than 1GB per day. Great location in Townsend and very relaxing cabin in the river.

This was our third stay in this cabin and we are planning to return again next year. We couldn't ask for a better location to suit our needs. It's very peaceful and feels like home now. Everything is provided to make for a great stay. It is always tidy and comfortable. We really enjoy Townsend and the park. The cabin is very convenient and the host is great to address any questions or concerns.

Excellent, quiet cabin by the river and within a few miles of The Smokies!!!
Our 3 person family truly enjoyed our stay at this cabin! The cabin had all we needed (fully stocked kitchen, 2 bedrooms, nice water pressured shower, family room to hang out, porch swings in the front and back of the cabin to enjoy the sounds and views), a quiet place right by the river where our son enjoyed playing by the river, enjoyed camp fires by the river, beautiful sunsets, enough space in the front of the cabin to play catch and especially within a few miles of The Smokies!

We enjoyed our stay. The cottage was easy to access, clean, and had all the features we anticipated. The kitchen was equipped with everyday items, like salt and pepper and some condiments. I didn't lower the rating, but knowing that four adults would be there for 5 days, it would have been nice to have more toilet paper and shampoo in the bathroom, but that was ok.The hot shower more than made up for that. Also, the closet handle in the bedroom closer to the river needs to be fixed. We closed it, but the handle doesn't work well enough to be able to open it. Again, this was minor. We were able to enjoy the firepit and the relaxing swings on the front and back porches. It would be great to have some sort of steps from the back porch to the river. Overall, we had a great trip, and the cabin was a great place to rest and relax. I loved the visitors' journal. That was a warm touch!
