Perfect size home for our family of 6. Large beds and kitchen was great for eating at home. Great views and easy access to Smokey Mountains Park. They are NOT joking about securing the trash cans! Enjoyed my coffee at 7:45 am on my second morning while watching a very large bear, 20 feet away, attempting to open trash can. It failed, but I got a great video.

Another awesome vacation at Knotty Pine

This was our 7th time staying at Knotty Pine for our almost annual vacation to the smokies and it was great as usual! We love staying on the “quiet” side of the smokies, visiting and hiking in Cades Cove, shopping and seeing a show in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Then relaxing in the hot tub when we returned.

Beautiful Cabin

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin, it was a perfect size for our family of 5. The location is perfect with easy access to townsend and cades cove. Very minimal travel to main townsend road which is hard to find. We will definitely stay again.

Cozy cabin in Townsend

Stayed at the cabin with two other couples over the weekend for a friend’s wedding. The cabin was plenty big enough for six adults and had everything that we needed to enjoy our weekend. We loved being so close to Townsend and Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

Nice, quiet location just a short drive to the restaurants of Townsend and the park entrance near Cade's Cove. Nice deck for grilling and relaxing. The fire pit was a nice bonus.

Thanksgiving in the Smokies

This cabin was everything we had hoped it would be. Beautiful from top to bottom with a great view of the mountains. Spending Thanksgiving with the family in the Smokies at this cabin was like being in a Norman Rockwell painting. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

Nice, quiet place to stay

Far enough away from pigeon Forge to feel like you’re in the country, but close enough to go and do touristy things for the day. Great beds. House next-door is closer than I expected but the divider fence obscured view of hot tub. Nice fire pit below the house.

Perfect

This cabin was beautiful with stunning views of the mountains from the front deck. Everything was very clean and the kitchen is fully stocked. Nicely tucked away from the noise of Gatlinburg and the surrounding area, but close enough to get to in a short time. Communication with the owner was great. We will definitely be back!

Why they chose this property

Our Cabin is not packed onto a small lot, but situated on 2 acres right adjacent to the Laurel Valley Country Club Golf and Swimming Pool only 5 minutes up the road. During the day you have access to this area. Unobstructed beautiful mountain views from every room of our home.

What makes this property unique

Location is awesome being only 10 min. to the National Park and Cades Cove & only 25 min. to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge! Townsend allows you to miss most of the traffic, being close to the fun of these vacation locations with all the peace and quiet of the Mountains. Our home is 5 minutes from an awesome cave attraction, riding stables and a Championship golf course only 5 minutes away too. Townsend has great tubing and fishing on the Little River and a wonderful bike trail that accesses the whole town, it is only 1 mile from our home. Come to our mountains!
