Excellent communication and responsive host. Beautiful new cabin in the woods but close drive to Townsend and park. Very well furnished, well equipped, and quality craftsmanship (such as dressers and rough hewn lumber). We have stayed at 50 places and this one ranks among the best.

New cabin beautifully decorated, exceptionally clean, well stocked kitchen, comfortable furnishings, on doorstep of Smoky Mountain National Park. Owner responded to texts promptly and would certainly stay here again if in the area. It is a very beautiful, woodsy, hilly setting. Highly recommend visiting the nearby Tuckaleechee Caverns.

Could not recommend this cabin more. Everything is so clean, well setup and stocked, and very comfortable. The sheets, towels, bedding, etc. just felt nice. The shower and bathrooms were perfectly setup for ease of use. Would absolutely stay here again. Perfect visit.
