The property was clean and well-appointed, and the communication was great. Loved being in Townsend, the peaceful side. The property was "private" in that there were trees between our cabin and the several others all around us, but it wasn't secluded or remote. There was a party at the cabin next to us one night that we could hear from our bedroom. The beds and pillows weren't very comfortable, and the downstairs bathroom door only stayed closed with a lock that was 6' off the ground so kids wouldn't be able to use that bathroom—something to keep in mind if you have little ones. It was a good value, the hot tub was delightful, and the location was convenient.

This cabin was perfect for our family getaway to the smokies. It is private and secluded and newly updated. Plenty of room for our family of 6. Townsend is an adorable town within minutes to Cades Cove....which is a must see! Derek was responsive and made the check in process a breeze. We will definitely be back!
