Everything we could want, just perfect!

My wife and I have been doing "getaways" since the kids got adult-ish. This beautiful Townsend cabin's location is the most picturesque, the shortest drive, near the coolest small town, and the cabin itself seems to have been assembled from our dreams! And then there's the hot tub! I don't want to talk about it too much, or else it might be harder to book next time!

The house was amazing and friendly. Very responsive you didn't have to wait long to get a response from them. Once arriving to the cabin it was dark porch lights came on through the motion lights. Open the cabin door it smelt great with very clean. We slept great. Woke up the next morning with a beautiful view of the river having a cup of coffee watching the squirrels play in the trees. This place is amazing It's cozy it's comfortable it's quiet.

25th Anniversary Celebration! Perfect little location along the river. My absolute favorite is the sun room! So relaxing and beautiful. Other cabins are pretty close on either side. My only suggestion is a privacy fence on the side of the jacuzzi. The cabin was very clean and cozy.
