We had a great time with a large group of family including 8 children. We loved the location. Any issues with the property were quickly addressed by owners.
We loved the secluded feeling of this property. The bunk room was perfect for our kids and the porches were perfect for relaxing at all times of day. The home included some thoughtful touches for guests that made our stay even more enjoyable. Would recommend without hesitation!
Wonderful place to stay for a Smokey’s base camp. Location is hard to beat, the views were amazing, and the living spaces were wonderful for hanging out and winding down after long days at the Park. Thanks to our host for being helpful, easy to work with, and unbelievably accommodating. Will hopefully be back soon!
This cabin was perfect for our entire extended family, from infants to grandparents. This cabin is nestled into a quiet hillside with easy access to Townsend and the Smokies. The views from the deck are unparalleled, and the house itself offers multiple amenities. This cabin will be at the top of our list next time we visit Townsend!

Thank you for the great review, so glad you enjoyed your stay! We'd love to have you back :)
We came up for my daughter's 18th birthday weekend. We got to see lots of snow. We had so much fun. This cabin was perfect and beautiful. Will definitely come back here.
This house was perfect!! It felt super secluded even though it is in a neighborhood. You could not see any other homes from this house. All of the rooms were nice and clean. However, the grease trap on the grill was completely full. The bunk room is absolutely perfect for kids! We would definitely stay here again!
Kindall’s cabin was the perfect place for a weekend friends get together. The kitchen had everything we needed, the location was great (no crazy driveways or insanely steep roads). We had 12 people staying and there was more than enough room with the full size bunk beds. We received a very cute welcome basket with snacks and coffee. I would definitely stay here again in the future!
Well cared for home that has plenty of privacy. Loved the downstairs bunk room for the kids. That sealed the deal. Internet was a little slow which made streaming harder but we hotspot' d to one of our phones. Great kitchen that had everything you needed. Loved this house and will be back!
We try to go on a family trip every couple of years. The Smoky Mountains are our favorite. This house had every thing we needed to fill our bed and bath needs. The large dining and living area were great for family movies and family game nights. The game room downstairs was a hit with the young ones and the one ones! The kitchen was well stocked and we appreciated the extras like kid dishes. Great places to relax on the decks and porches and of course the hot tub!
This cabin was a great choice for our family vacation.
My family, including my children and grandchildren, loved the cabin. We saw a bear four of the seven days that we were there either on the drive in or in the parking area of the cabin. The down stairs area was perfect for the kids. They enjoyed having their own area with plenty of things to entertain them. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking. The best thing about the cabin was that we never ran out of hot water. We would highly recommend this cabin.

Thank you so much for the great review! I’m so glad everyone enjoyed the cabin and that you got to see so many bears, that’s always special! We’d love to have you back sometime :)
We loved loved this property so much! The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. It was perfect for everyone; ranging from grandparents to a 9, 7 and 2 year old. It was nice not having to worry about things like plates for our toddler!
The location couldn’t have been better! The neighborhood was quiet and not too far from things to do. We even saw a couple of bears walking down the road.
This property will definitely be on our revisit list!

Thank you for the great review! I’m so glad you enjoyed the cabin and got to see wildlife! We’d love to have y’all again :)
I booked this cabin as a Christmas vacation for my extended family of 14. We were very comfortable. The pictures of the property are great. Once we arrived it was breathtaking. AMAZING PROPERTY. My family loved it more than any gift I could’ve purchased. They preferred to stay at the cabin instead of going to Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg. When we went out they weee ready to get back to enjoy the cabin. Thanks so much to the host.
