Anniversary Mountain Getaway

We had such a fabulous time at Shady’s Barn. The cabin is a perfect secluded gem in the Tennessee Mountains. We were fortunate to see the Black Bears every day of our visit, munching acorns and even a Momma bear with 3 cubbies! Definitely had to be mindful of the bears, but overall it was more beautiful and relaxing than we ever imagined. The hot tub was great and the seclusion was amazing. The drive in was a bit intimidating as someone who doesn’t have much experience with mountain driving, but by the end of the trip I was a pro. Hubby and I can’t wait to return! Highly recommended!

Anniversary Getaway

The pictures of Shadys Barn do not do it justice. It is absolutely adorable and cozy. It was so very perfect for us. The kitchen is well stocked. I added a couple items :) WiFi is excellent. Hot tub was perfect. Mornings on the porch with coffee were perfect. An abundance of wildlife

Perfect

Property was everything it said it was and as described. It was nice to find a cabin for just two, well appointed and nice lay out, not everything cramped in one space to include the hot tub. Needs a blind over the glass doors, we used blankets to keep out the sun, and any passerby’s. Privacy from neighbors was nice... Peaceful, I would consider staying again.

Immaculately Clean

Very clean. Very private. No cell service in the cabin, but the wifi worked well. It would have been nice if every window in the bedroom as well as the glass door to exit to the outside had shades to keep out the morning light.

Great couples getaway

Shady’s Barn was clean and matched our expectations from the description and pics. Beautiful property in a private setting, end cabin on a long gravel drive. The kitchen is pretty well stocked which came in handy since we were attending an event in Townsend where the few restaurants there can get overwhelmed at dinner time. Hope to return next year.

3 night stay

The cabin was not the cabin we originally wanted or rented. Arrangements were changed at the last minute. The cabin was clean but we went without heat 2 out of our 3 night stay with 29 degree night temperatures. Whirlpool tub did not work. Television downstairs with pool table didn't work. Fireplace blower didn't work.

Secluded Getaway

We always search for more secluded rentals, but It’s always a coin toss when the advertisement says “secluded”. This one really is! We thoroughly enjoyed the property, the hot tub was great, and the other amenities were just as advertised. Would definitely recommend and we will certainly return as well!

If you want to get away, be out in nature and enjoy the country life this is the place for you. We woke up every morning, made coffee and hopped in the hot tub. Nothing like it….

Perfect Secluded Getaway

From the long winding gravel drive to the steep incline that takes you up to the cabin (Shad'y Barn) it's everything you'd expect plus more in a secluded cabin. The kitchen is well equipped with all you need. The cabin is a unique design that works perfect. Plenty of windows and for us the best part was the hot tub on the screened porch that looks out to the grove of Oak trees where all the wildlife comes to. In our case it was a group of deer that would come everyday to eat the acorns that were all over the ground. We didn't see any bear but were told they also show up as well. This cabin sits close enough to anything you would expect to do in the Smokies but also feel like your far away when your relaxing in the evenings. There are a lot of cabins etc. leading up to Shady's Barn but once you turn onto the gravel drive you immediately begin to feel the sense of being secluded. Directions were perfect, communication with host perfect, all information needed was spot on. Really enjoyed our stay at Shady's Barn. We will definitely be back. John and Tracy

Weekend getaway 2023

Quiet little cabin off the beaten path, you need AWD to get up the path for a couple hundred yards, but it’s worth it. The extra blankets are in the dresser if you need.
