Townsend calls itself the peaceful side of the Smokies, and that is the honest pitch for this cabin. It sits inside a private resort at the end of a paved one-lane road, quiet enough to get away from the hustle and bustle and hear the gentle noises of the Smoky Mountains.

The hot tub is on the deck, a great place to end up after dark. Inside there's a seasonal gas
fireplace under cathedral ceilings, a TV and WiFi, and a charcoal grill outside for the nights you'd rather cook than drive anywhere.

The kitchen is a real kitchen. Stainless appliances, granite counters, and enough equipment to cook a homemade dinner.

Sleeping is a primary bedroom with its own bathroom and a stand-up shower, plus a king bed up in the loft. The property sleeps four.

Dogs are welcome. One dog, fifty pounds or under, for a $30 pet fee paid at booking. We provide a dog bed, bowls and waste bags, and we ask that you clean up after them and don't leave them outside unattended. No cats or other pets. (see below for further details).*

The resort has a swimming pool for guests only, a pavilion, paved roads throughout and security cameras at the entrance. The cabin sits where you're unlikely to see another guest at all.

The national park is about half an hour away. Cades Cove, the hiking trails and the horseback riding are all out that direction, and Mt LeConte is there for anyone who wants the long climb. Pigeon Forge is under twenty miles, and the drive over through Wears Valley is worth taking slowly for the antique shops, the distilleries and the wineries along the way. Gatlinburg is about twenty-five miles, which is close enough for the aquarium or the ski resort in winter without being close enough to hear it.

Your stay includes $940.00 in complimentary activities. Just by booking with us, you’ll receive free tickets, every day of your stay to top activities like Dollywood, Ober Gatlinburg Aerial Tramway, and more. (One free admission per activity, per day)

Worth knowing before you arrive: the road in is a paved single lane with light posts along it, but it winds, and finding the cabin the first time is easier in daylight. We'd suggest arriving before dark and following the directions we send rather than trusting your phone. There's a map across from the pool and pavilion if you need it. The cabin is number 146.

Small trailer parking is available if you're towing.

**Magnolia Vacation Rentals is not liable for any disruptions, damages, or cancellations caused by acts of God or weather-related events. In accordance with health and safety regulations, all hot tubs are drained, sanitized, and refilled between guest stays. As a result, the hot tub may require additional time to reach optimal temperature and may not be fully heated the first night of your stay. All guests are required to review and sign a renter’s agreement prior to check-in. We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance to protect your reservation against unexpected changes or emergencies.**
