Cabins were clean, and quiet. Host was on-site if I needed anything. I visit my son a few times a year at the University of Tennessee, and love staying in the beautiful town of Townsend. I will definitely visit Rocky River Cabins again.

The property was clean and easy to locate. Host was very gracious. It does sleep four but was smaller than expected. The outside area for grilling was very comfortable.

We're so glad you found the property clean and easy to locate, appreciated the welcoming hospitality, and enjoyed the comfortable outdoor grilling area! We understand the space felt smaller than expected, even though it accommodates four guests. We're looking into adding a shelf for extra luggage storage to help guests make the most of the available space. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we'd love to welcome you back!

Cute little cabin in the heart of Townsend. Close to restaurants, Cades Cove, and the Smokies national park. The host lives on the property and is super accessible and accommodating. Will be back!
