Perfect getaway in the Smokies!
This cabin nestled in the woods was perfect. Very well appointed and all of our needs were met. Our dogs also loved it because there was woods that they could run around in and jump on boulders and have fun. Our host was very warm and communicated promptly and offered a very easy check in and check out. The house is very close to restaurants, Cades Cove and the park itself. We’re already planning a fall trip to The Cove!

10/10 would recommend and stay again.
We needed a quick over night stay while passing through. As soon as we pulled in we were in love. The lights were on, the heat was on (28 outside) and it was perfect. So nice not walking into a dark and cold place to stay for the first time. The surroundings were nice and quiet too, we definitely recommend this property and plan on returning.

Beautiful and secluded getaway.
It’s only minutes from Townsend and the Great Smokey National Park. It was very comfortable, and clean. The full kitchen allowed to prepared full homemade meals over Christmas when restaurants were closed and enjoyed breakfast every morning.The king size bed is firm but very comfortable since it is a memory foam mattress.The overall feel, is very cozy. At the end of a long day in the Park, it felt like we were coming home when pulling into the driveway. :)

We have stayed here many, many times. We have history!
The question when renting a house, is , was it good enough to return. This is always the question my husband and I always ask ourselves after a rental. The answer is yes. We will definitely return. We love this cabin

Lovely secluded feel
We had a relaxing time in the well-appointed cabin. The out-of-the-way location and Townsend itself was a peaceful getaway.
This cabin was perfect for a couple looking to get away. Extremely cozy. I could imagine this being the perfect Fall getaway. It's right next to Cades Cove and not far from Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge without the traffic. Highly recommended.

Cozy at the Ove
Perfect place for two adults to just get away. Cabin was very clean..tastefully decorated..easy to find. It was very close to golf course if one is so inclined. Communication with hosts was most excellent and timely. I personally found the mattress to be a bit too firm but it did not distract from my stay. I would highly recommend.
