This is a wonderful farmhouse that has been turned into a family vacation rental, and is featured on a huge property that includes horses, stables and rentals. The staff was exceptionally helpful and friendly, and the house just had such a beautiful view from the deck. Very quiet area and close to the great Smoky Mountains. Highly recommended!

Peaceful stay for the whole family!

My family and I enjoyed our stay at the Hayloft. We were in town to catch up and visit but not really interested in all the touristy things. We spent most of our time hanging out in the main room playing pool or cards. The sleeping arrangements really were the main draw to this space. The Hayloft is no Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous accommodation, just a comfortable, rustic cabin on a beautiful piece of property. Thanks for the great stay!

Beautiful property. Peaceful, quiet. Wonderful sunrise/sunset viewing. Rustic atmosphere. Large deck for breakfast. Location was perfect for our stay in Townsend. We did not have time for horseback riding but enjoyed watching them in pasture. Hosts very friendly and informative.

Perfect for small family renunion

This was our first time booking the Hayloft Sky Cabin. We had a small sibling reunion for eight adults and between the Sky Cabin, Octagon Suite, and Morning View Suite we all had enough room and privacy for a three-night stay. The Sky Cabin also provided us with the perfect gathering place with the deck, patio, and game room. We continue to come back to this property because it is so beautiful and the owners, April and Jeff are so nice and easy to work with.

Plenty of space to enjoy the views.

We enjoyed our visit to the Hayloft. It was clean and a little like going to your grandparents house. Overall, it could use some updating but we still enjoyed it and had a great trip with plenty of space. The pool table was fun for the guys and my granddaughter loved petting the horses. I wish we had booked a ride for her in advance!

Amazingly peaceful spot! Great place to get away!

We took my 18 year old and a friend the week he started freshman year at college. The owners were so friendly - I we felt like we were living on a family farm. The boys did a horseback ride and developed an affection for their horses and made an immediate trip to buy carrots to feed them. They fished, swam, picnicked, hiked, played pool and made hot dogs and s’mores. Cabin has lots of stairs but I needed a good workout! 😜. We would stay there again in a heartbeat - my soul is renewed!!!!!

Amazing trip

We stayed in the hayloft and LOVED it! We were looking for a place that was secluded, peaceful, and quiet to unwind as a family. This place provided all of that and more. We enjoyed every thing about this property. It is absolutely beautiful. The management was so nice and helpful. My daughter went on a horse back ride and had the best experience. We would recommend this property to anyone:

Wonderful stay in a quiet spot!

We had a wonderful experience at the Hayloft. The home itself is beautiful and the setting was perfect for us - close to the park but away from the crowds in Gatlinburg. Entry to the park was super easy and there were nice amenities right nearby (dining, grocery, gas station, etc). Jeff was really easy to work with and was quick to reply to questions. We would love to stay here again!
