Another awesome vacation at Knotty Pine

This was our 7th time staying at Knotty Pine for our almost annual vacation to the smokies and it was great as usual! We love staying on the “quiet” side of the smokies, visiting and hiking in Cades Cove, shopping and seeing a show in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Then relaxing in the hot tub when we returned.

Comfortable time with family in the smokies

Property is easy to find and has easy access to all the Smokies has to offer. Quiet, restful and relaxing if that is what you want in your vacation. We were a family of seniors and that was important.

Cozy cabin in Townsend

Stayed at the cabin with two other couples over the weekend for a friend’s wedding. The cabin was plenty big enough for six adults and had everything that we needed to enjoy our weekend. We loved being so close to Townsend and Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

Fall Family Gathering

Wonderful accommodations, fantastic views. Dishwasher had not been emptied and dishes were still in it . Kitchen and living area needed to be swept or vacuumed. That was not a reflection on the owner, but the cleaning crew. Awesome cabin, well appointed and comfortable beds! Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful Mountain View

We loved this property. The location is close enough to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg for day trips and then come back and relax in the quiet. The cabin was very clean, had everything we needed for our stay and perfect for our group. We took our grandkids to golf course pool and enjoyed having a drink while they swam. The view of the mountains were beautiful from the cabin deck. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Great Stay

It was a very nice cabin in the woods. We would have liked to see more mountains from our view. It was rather far to travel to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg and it took a longer time than anticipated. However, We enjoyed our stay.

Amazing property & owners!

I've never been to TN before so I wasn't sure about much when I was booking my stay. The photos of this house looked great and the property was even more amazing than the photos show!! The house was very clean, each bedroom having its own bathroom was amazing, sitting on the deck drinking coffee and looking at the mountains was amazing - I could go on and on. I highly recommend this property!!

Wow!

This was one of our best vacation rentals! Great location, very quiet but not too secluded, shopping and dining within 10 minutes. House was very comfortable, fully equipped kitchen, spices and condiments a plenty. Everything was clean and very welcoming. Beds are soft, but that's exactly how we like it. Communication with the owner was extremely pleasant. Definitely a place we can recommend.

Spring Break getaway

This cabin had everything we needed for a nice comfortable stay. The Townsend area offers less dining options, but the peaceful side has many perks. Getting in and out of GSMT is easy. Traffic is minimal. You’re closer to Maryville which has everything else you might need. We would definitely stay here again !

Great cabin!

This cabin was perfect for us, three brothers and their wives. We enjoyed the deck our whole stay, and the fire pit, the one night it was cool enough to have a fire. If we make that trip again, I hope this cabin is available.

Why they chose this property

Our Cabin is not packed onto a small lot, but situated on 2 acres right adjacent to the Laurel Valley Country Club Golf and Swimming Pool only 5 minutes up the road. During the day you have access to this area. Unobstructed beautiful mountain views from every room of our home.

What makes this property unique

Location is awesome being only 10 min. to the National Park and Cades Cove & only 25 min. to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge! Townsend allows you to miss most of the traffic, being close to the fun of these vacation locations with all the peace and quiet of the Mountains. Our home is 5 minutes from an awesome cave attraction, riding stables and a Championship golf course only 5 minutes away too. Townsend has great tubing and fishing on the Little River and a wonderful bike trail that accesses the whole town, it is only 1 mile from our home. Come to our mountains!
