This is our third visit to Cedar Creek Manor and we always enjoy it. Very accommodating and perfect for our family group. The hosts are always gracious and attune to our every need. The pictures can’t do it justice as the views are ever-changing and spectacular as the sun hits the mountains from different angles. A little visit to heaven each time we come! Townsend has great eating establishments and an excellent supermarket, so we have no problem staying well-fed. The hiking is just the best, so many trails nearby from which to choose. Thans again!

Why they chose this property

Great smoky Mountain location.

What makes this property unique

The view from the deck is unsurpassed in the area and the deck is the perfect place to enjoy a cup of coffee or glass of wine. Having lived in Florida so long, we really enjoy that we can enjoy all 4 seasons at the cabin. Townsend is on the "quiet side" of the mountain yet close enough to Knoxville, Gatlinburg, and Pigeon Forge to enjoy the "touristy" stuff and then come back to the cabin for relaxation and family time.
