Get that classic cabin feel and secluded serenity while still being mere minutes from shopping, wineries, and restaurants of town when you make this fantastic retreat home. With 137 feet of river frontage, there will be no better way to start each day than sipping a cup of coffee on the waterfront bench as the sound of gentle rapids accompany the sunrise. You can still hear the calming babble from the two decks as well when you want to return from a full day of fun and reminisce with loved ones at sunset. Don't hesitate to stay out as the stars come out, too, as the firepit can be just the place to tell stories.

Inside, rustic decor meets modern comforts with natural wood paneling, a gas fireplace, high-speed WiFi, and a full kitchen boasting full-size appliances and granite countertops. Whip up tasty meals with ease, and head into the living area to enjoy a dinner with a show on the TV or a formal banquet at the accommodating dining table. And, when it is time to hit the hay, three bedrooms await with plush bedding for recharging for more fun days ahead.

This is your very own slice of Townsend, so book your stay and perhaps make a new family tradition along the way!

With your reservation, enjoy one FREE Ticket to each of these attractions: Paula Dean's Lumberjack Dinner Show, Wonderworks, Smoky Mountain Observation Wheel, NASCAR Speedpark, Rocky Mountain Coaster and Skyland Ranch (a $205.00 Value) as well as Exclusive Discounted Tickets to Anakeesta, Hatfield & McCoy, Dolly's Stampede, Comedy Barn and more.

Cute cabin on the water

We had a good stay in this cabin. We chose this specifically for the location on the river and location to the national park. We liked how close it was to everything and our young boys loved fishing and splashing in the river. There is car traffic that you hear from across the road (which we knew from previous reviews bit it didn’t keep us up at night). We never got the QR code for the promised discounted tickets via the rental company despite a few phone calls. Otherwise the cabin is comfortable but bare bones- bring your own deck of cards, games, wood, coals, etc.

Cabin

Over all we enjoyed it. Make sure to bring your day to day things. Nothing is stocked. We love the stream, great for the kids! I didn’t think it was very clean.. it wasn’t crazy dirty but definitely not clean. The doors do not lock from the inside. My little one would constantly open the doors bc it doesn’t lock. It make me nervous with the stream being so close. It does lock from the outside!

Nice lil spot

We have a motorcycle trip to the smokies every year, we usually stay south of Maryville but this year we decided to try Townsend, location was easy to find, really enjoyed sitting next to/in the river. House was clean and was nice having the one at the end of the lane so there was zero traffic/road noise. Can hear the highway on the other side of the river but never really bother us. Would stay again

Picturesque vacation home

First family vacation with all the kids together, it was beautiful and we had a blast, the setting is gorgeous and the river is amazing. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We did however leave two tablets and a wallet, hoping to receive those back, have already contacted Vacasa, hoping to hear back from them concerning those items.

Solid Place to Stay

This cabin is a nice property to stay at and probably one of the better ones that we have stayed in. It was pretty clean, but noticed some little things missed while they were vacuuming. The one big thing I did not like was that there was a decent amount of people on the river during the day and that would hurt any fishing chances or privacy that you would want. The cabin is secluded which was very nice and had nice features. I would give it 4.5 stars and with the things I have mentioned, I would stay there in the future.

Mountain vacation

Had a great time at this cabin. Our girls loved playing in the river in front of the cabin. The river was easy to access and shallow enough for them to play in. The one lane road leading to the cabin is a little nerve racking but we never had to pass another car. There is some road noise but it wasn’t that bad. We had everything we needed from pots and pans to laundry detergent. Overall, great experience. Would stay there again.

Beautiful spot by the river!

The cabin was spacious and cozy! We especially loved the comfy rocking chairs on the porch and the steps that lead to the water. A great spot for morning coffee! We were in town for the Cades Cove loop lope race and enjoyed an “ice bath” in the river. Location is perfect if you want to be close to the park but not in the busy areas of Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg. Will definitely recommend to others!

Waters edge

This place is absolutely beautiful inside and out. The location is the last spot on a dead end lane and extremely private. The back porch overlooks the river and we tried fishing and panning gold(there are very fine little pieces!).

Great cabin on the Little River!

The cabin was perfect and clean! The beds were comfortable and there were ample towels. Everything worked as expected. There was only one wine glass but wine does not have to be consumed from a wine glass! The access to the river was easy. But just to be upfront, some times there were people enjoying the river from the other side. They did keep to themselves. We enjoyed sitting in the rockers on the porches and just enjoying relaxing. The road coming in is a typical mountain road, about a lane and a half. Just slow down around the curves. Peaceful side social is a great casual place for dinner. Company Distilling offers craft cocktails. We loved the cabin, the ambiance, and the quiet side of the Smokies!
