Wildwood Cottage was completely remodeled and redecorated in February 2024.

Don't let the steps keep you away from this one room studio cabin is located in a small log cabin community close to the main Hwy in Townsend, TN called Timberwinds Resort. It features a KING size comfortable bed, a wood burning fireplace, living area with TV/DVD/Satellite, whirlpool bathtub and fully equipped kitchen. The bathroom is a separate private space with a stand up shower.

Wildwood Cottage is a wonderful place to spend your next romantic getaway to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Cades Cove. Just 3 miles to the entrance to the park, it only takes a few minutes to arrive.
 
For your enjoyment, the resort also offers seasonal access to the community pool which is walking distance from the cabin. It also has a private hot tub for your use on the back deck of the cabin.

For your safety & security, there is a camera on the exterior of this cabin pointing down the exterior steps that you must access to get in to this cabin. There are no other cameras and nothing that would impede on your privacy.

*Wildwood Cottage is at the top of a somewhat steep road. It may require a 4 wheel drive vehicle in bad weather.

Wow! Whiskey in the Woods is such an amazing property. From the abundance of privacy to the smallest detail to make our guests stay a delight, this cabin offers so much!

Outside you will find a large covered deck with ceiling fans and comfortable furniture for nature watching or having a warm cup of coffee. There is a bonfire area as well for that evening spent with your family & friends talking about past memories and making ones for the future. The back deck has a gas BBQ grill for guests to cook burgers or steaks, baked potatoes and veggies!!

When walking in to the cabin, guests will enter the living room area. With comfortable reclining seating for up to 6, the living room is very welcoming. There is a wood burning fireplace as well as a flat screen TV with YouTube TV channels. The kitchen is just off of the living room with dining seating. It is fully equipped with all of the comforts of cooking at home.

The bedrooms at Whiskey in the Woods each have a queen size bed, dressers and plenty of room for relaxing. There is a loft with a sofa sleeper for the kids or extra guests.

FEES: The management company of this cabin charges a $20 per stay Damage Waiver Fee to every customer. It is automatically included in your rate. This covers our guests for up to $350 worth of accidental damage should damage occur during their stay. If damage occurs to the cabin, furnishings, etc, please report it to management as soon as possible so that the damage can be repaired. You may opt out of paying the $20 damage waiver fee by putting down a $350 REFUNDABLE damage deposit. DAMAGE CAUSED BY A PET IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE DAMAGE WAIVER.

Common Concerns:
*Road Conditions: Some of our cabins are on steep, narrow, curvy, mountain roads. If you are concerned about road conditions to get to a cabin, please feel free to ask us! None of our cabins require a 4-wheel drive under normal weather conditions but some do in inclement weather.
*TV & WiFi: We do have TV's and WiFi in almost all of our cabins. There are times when heavy cloud cover, weather systems, mountains, or trees will cause problems with the signals. We always want our guests to have the comforts they want on vacation, but there are times we cannot control this problem.
*Pests & Wildlife: Here in the Smoky Mountains, we have lots of native bugs and wildlife. All of our cabins are treated for pests, but there are times you will find bugs or even have trouble with bugs. Fall/Winter is ladybug season in the Smokies and these little buggers are attracted to heat, meaning your cabin and every other one out there that is warm! They will swarm to the cabin and you'll probably see them alive/dead on windowsills, in vents, etc. Rest assured that your cabin has regular pest control and is professionally cleaned, including bug removal, before and after your stay. However, these bugs come back right away and unfortunately there is nothing that can be done about them until the season passes. Please never feed, taunt or approach any wildlife. This is their home and we are the visitors.
*There are no refunds for storms or power outages. If there is a power outage, there will be no water and potentially no heat. Storms can also make roads impassable, so if a storm is in the forecast during your reservation, come prepared with water and non-perishable food, etc.

Quaint and comfortable cabin

We loved this little cabin! The layout is beautiful and the decor makes it feel like home. ❤️ Only warnings to those that are planning on renting this one is the road to get to the property is narrow, curvy, and steep. Parking is a bit tricky to back in to the property, but I think it would be even more difficult to back out of the parking space. A large vehicle may be very difficult (I drive a CRV and back in to all spaces). Also, a heads up that the shower is smaller than a standard size when it comes to floor space; it was fine for us just had to be careful of the shower curtain (for reference: husband is 6’1” at 180# and I’m 5’8” at 185#).

First Time in Townsend

Cabin was as advertised except no washer or dryer. Very clean everything we would need was there. Hot Tub was awesome. Front porch swing was very enjoyable. Weber Charcoal grill worked well. The drive way in was as much fun as a amusement park ride. Nice hills and sharp turns. We will be back again!!

Beautiful views and very nice Cabin VERY STEEP road leading up to cabin.

The cabin was very cozy and clean, perfect for relaxing. I suggest having a 4wd or truck to make it to this cabin, little cars wouldn't make it up the Very steep road, straight incline up then a very sharp right turn and incline to the cabin, not much room to turn around back up.

Disappointed

Little effort had been made for animal eradication. You try to sleep at 2am with scratchy paws above you on the roof.

Maybe fix roads

I also had a hard time driving those roads, especially at night, very hard to see. And yes slick and quite frightening without 4wd.
