Rest and Relax

My husband and I were very pleased with the cabin and location. It had everything we needed for our stay. Even though there are cabins close by, it felt secluded and private. We enjoyed being able to rest and relax while in Townsend, and the hot tub was great! The driveway to this cabin is a bit steep(just some information to know). We hope to visit again in the future.

The place was exactly what we hoped for. The privacy was what we enjoyed most as you can't be seen by nearby residences.

Our stay

The cabin gave us an authentic feel of staying in the mountains. It was on a very quiet road and we even saw a bear from the deck the first day we were there. We really enjoyed ourselves and would stay again.

Great property!

The cabin is located at the top of a rather large hill, surrounded by trees. Very private and secluded. Everything was clean, and although located in the middle of woods, not a single bug was seen inside the cabin. Loved the hot tub. Towels were thick and lush. Convenient to get to the national park.

Great location!

This cabin was perfect for our vacation. It’s near everything we wanted but isolated enough to be private (you could just barely see other cabins). We would definitely stay again if we come back to the area.

Great 6 night stay!

Very satisfied with the listing accuracy and the speedy response from the owners. When we arrived, the check in was incredibly easy, and the cabin was clean and stocked as described. The jacuzzi and fireplace were definitely a nice touch being winter time. Overall, a very nice stay and glady recommend. This is a open floor plan smaller cabin though, so sound travels. Do not expect privacy as you can talk at regular volume throughout and hear everything. The only thing i would suggest is maybe softer higher quality mattresses as they were a bit stiff and loud spring mattresses Just a recommendation.

Beautiful property-Great Location

This cabin was conveniently located to a grocery store, and restaurants, while not being in a busy area. It was stocked with ample necessities for our stay. Very clean, with comfortable beds. There is a clean, operating laundry room at the entry of the property, not within the cabin itself. There was a charcoal grill, not gas. I'd stay here again!
