This cabin is wonderful! The location is perfectly located for enjoying Townsend and especially the Little River, which is right in the back yard. Very convenient for GSMNP and Cades Cove wonderings. We have stayed in this cabin several times and it feels like home. It has everything we need and the owner is very accommodating and easy to communicate with. We feel fortunate to have found it and have already booked our next stay!
