Great location!

This cabin is in a great location and within a short driving distance to so many sites. It made for a nice central location that we could head to Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, Cherokee, or stay even closer and enjoy the quiet side of the Smoky Mountains right at Townsend and visit Cades Cove and Tuckaleechee Caverns. It was a great find and helped to make wonderful memories of our vacation!

Mountain Getaway

Cabin was all we expected it would be!! My kids and husband enjoyed the pool table very much as I enjoyed the porch sitting to enjoy a good book and coffee. Weather was perfect!! We visited the peaceful side brewery and had some yummy fries and beers after a visit to cafes cove which was one of my favorite adventures. Such a quiet place to relax and unwind.

Blackberry Smoke Concert At The Shed (Maryville)

This was our third year to stay in Townsend to attend the Blakckberry Smoke Concert. By far the Kallithea, has been the best place compared to the other 2 places we have stayed at in previous years. The place was immaculate! If I could give 10 stars I would!! Kitchen fully stocked with everything you need. Beds were very comfortable, downstairs shower was super nice! We enjoyed sitting out on both decks, playing pool, and playing cards! I would recommend the Kallithia....you will not be disappointed! Only downfall is the driveway....not much room to park. Fortunately we were in a midsize car so it was all good! I could see if someone has a huge pick up truck it may get a little tricky. Other than that, it is an amazing place to stay. We plan to stay at the Kallithia again next May.

Smokey Mountain Sweetness

The home is located in a gated community. It was private. The house was clean. Check in was easy. Starter essentials were perfect. It is nicely decorated. Great porches to relax on. Beautiful setting in the Smokey’s. Close to Townsend. We would rent again. Bonus…whipperwill serenades!

Early October Get Away

Pros: House was very clean and comfortable. The beds were perfect for our taste. Not too hard, not too soft. “Just right”. The neighborhood was quiet and appeared to be a safe, well maintained community. Response from property owners was very prompt. Cons: If you are like us and booking based on the view pictured in the listing, you might be disappointed. The trees have obviously grown considerably since that picture was taken and it should be updated. The ironing board is one of those cheap table top models that really bring out the devil in me! Check-out directions request that the trash be taken to location down the road. Be sure to find this drop-off spot during daylight. We could not find it when we left before dark and that was a little aggravating. I only mention these cons so you aren’t surprised. They are NOT reasons to pass on this place. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

We stayed for five nights. We come to Tennessee every year and rent a cabin. This was our first stay at this cabin, BY FAR THE BEST!!! We absolutely loved it! It was the cleanest one we've ever had. The host was friendly and responsive. She even let us check in an hour early. and its just beautiful!

Our family of 3 arrived late so had to use the gated keypad entry. I failed to notice the entry code on the instructions but maged to get in. The house was very nice and we especially like the deck on the back of the house. We had a couple of minor issues that the propery manager addrrssed promptly.. The area was beautiful and would definitely come back and recommend.

Beautiful cabin, very clean, full of amenities in kitchen plus washer & dryer. We were there for a quick 2 night stay for a wedding but wish we could have enjoyed longer. It accommodated 2 grandparents, 2 adults, 2 grandchildren very well with two bedroom/baths on different floors plus bonus sleeping loft. Bonus basement game room. Be aware of very steep road approaching cabin and not level driveway for 2 vehicles that was a little difficult for the elderly grandparents but doable with a handicap ramp. Five minutes to Townsend activities & food.

A wonderful place to stay

15 minutes and you're in the Park. Lots of restaurants and an IGA grocery store near by. Tuckaleechee Caverns is just down the road and highly recommended. The cabin is lovely and well maintained. Host is very responsive, and we would enjoy staying here again.

Our stay at the cabin

We only had one major concern, and that was the door locking system. It had a keycode pad on the outside, which was fine, but on the inside the only lock was attached to the keypad. There should have been a separate deadbolt lock/locking mechanism that was on the inside of the door. But there was not.

Peaceful and as advertised

We stayed here for our recent trip to the smoky Mountians. It’s a short drive to the park, and anything you’d need really. We enjoyed the pool table in the basement, and relaxing on the deck. The road up to the cabin is no joke, and turning around to park could be a pain at times, but wasn’t an issue. I wouldn’t recommend pulling any sort of trailer up the hill. We would stay again for sure if we are ever in the area!

Well equipped and great floor plan

We stayed here for two nights in January to celebrate my son’s 18th birthday. Very well equipped cabin with quality cookware and even extras like aluminum foil and spices. Very nice for a group who cooked breakfast and dinner in cabin. Linens and towels were nice quality and the beds were comfortable. Fireplace made it cozy. Easy check out instructions.
