Riverfront, ½ Mile to Smoky Mtn National Park

10/10 Excellent
"A wonderful little gem in the peaceful foothills of the Smokies. This was our first trip to GSM and we'll be back. Townsend is the perfect launching point to experience the wonder and beauty of the landscape. The cabin is well provisioned and thoughtfully laid out providing the perfect balance of rustic comfort and efficiency. A touch or wand light or two under the kitchen cabinets to improve the lighting for cooking and cleaning up would be a simple and helpful improvement. Otherwise this is a little slice of heaven on the Little River that enhanced our trip giving us a peaceful place for relaxing after our daily adventures."

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!"
