Relax on the Quiet Side – Hot Tub & Serenity!

10/10 Excellent

"The cabin was very nice. Only concern we had was the drive into the driveway as the need to turn around to drive back down the road was necessary. It would have been nice to have a suggestion to go to top of the road and turn around there and come back down to driveway to back in to park. I came to that after my first time of turning around in the widened section of road there which was pretty hairy. Otherwise only a few light bulbs needed replaced and the light over the stove needed to be replaced.We loved the clean spaces and welcoming interfaces we had in this experience."

Charming 2-bedroom cabin in delightful Townsend with all the necessary amenities

10/10 Excellent

"The cabin was perfect! I met up with a friend to hike area and we each took a room( beds are so comfortable), one has a jetted tub which was great after a day of hiking, ( the other shower/ tub combo) and of course a screened in porch on deck beside a hot tub! Privacy but right down the street from Cades Cove Trail Road….perfect location. Host provides a drip coffee maker and travel size soap, hair products so you will need to get coffee/ filters and xtra shampoo/ conditioner if you wash often. Host provides laundry pods for washer/ dryer which was nice. No dryer sheets. Parking on concrete driveway, no steep roads to it. Communication was excellent, check in easy and smooth. Shout out to Shannon. We would come back to this site again! Book it, you won’t regret it!"
