About this property

The Blue Door Cabin: Charming, All-Wood w/Screened-in Porches - quiet & relaxing

Welcome to The Blue Door Cabin in Townsend, TN - "The Peaceful Side of the Smokies" ... Open the door, claim your bed (queen on the first floor, queen & twin trundle in the loft), grab a beverage (complimentary hot coffee available at your arrival), and enjoy on one of the many screened-in porches where you can unwind in tranquility (depending on recent rainfall, you can hear nearby running water too).

Our charming and cozy, all-wood cabin is perfect for individuals on retreat, couples, friends who are getting together, and small families. The cabin sleeps up to 5 guests - there is a queen bedroom with a door on the first floor and a queen bed with twin trundle in the loft. We also offer 2 bathrooms - with a shower on the 2nd floor and a jacuzzi tub on the first floor.

Our specialty is your special occasion and/or newcomers to the Smoky Mountains; we are Smoky Mountain Enthusiasts and Townsend locals - so we would be delighted to help you with any of your trip-planning needs!

The Blue Door Cabin is located within a private, gated community and the drive to our location is mostly flat. We are located just minutes from the entrance to The Great Smoky Mountains, Cades Cove Cellars, Tuckaleechee Caverns, River Rats, The Dancing Bear, the Heritage Center, and the Foothills Parkway (to name a few).

Over the summer, guests can use the Honeysuckle Pool on Happy Hollow Road in Wears Valley for $5 per person, per day. The day pass also includes a fishing permit to catch and release in the private pond.

The fireplace is available for use October through April.

Guests of the Blue Door Cabin enjoy our cleanliness, the screened-in porches, the flat and paved roadway to cabin, and REAL hosts (no robots nor management company).

Perfect quiet hideaway in the Smokies!

We absolutely loved the privacy this cabin offered, and everything was so well appointed! The close proximity to the National Park and Townsend as well as a short drive to Maryville allowed us to truly enjoy our time.

Weekend Trip

Very nice and clean cabin in a very quiet area. It is decorated very well and owners have thought of a lot of little details that make the place stand out compared to others we have stayed at. We love how close it was to get into the park without going through any traffic.

Amazing weekend getaway!

We had booked this for a quiet weekend getaway. Both me and my husband absolutely enjoyed our time here. The hosts have put in a lot of thought for the decor at this place, which we absolutely adored. It was in a great location, pretty close to the park entrance which was an added advantage.

The quiet side of GSMNP

This was a great location to experience the area without being in the business of some of the more highly developed areas, yet we were still close enough to venture in for the experience when we wanted to. Wonder place for our family.

Anniversary trip.

The cabin was everything they said it was. Clean beautifully decorated. It had the smoky mountain atmosphere. We would definitely stay here again. The host were very sweet to work with. She answered all the questions we had. We didn’t have anything that needed to be addressed while we were there. The bottle of wine for our anniversary was a nice touch!!

Peaceful Stay

Cabin was tucked in the trees in a quiet neighborhood. Screened porches were fantastic for sitting outside without the bugs getting to you and a nice breeze for in the ceiling fans. All the furnishings you could ask for! Wildlife abundant in the neighborhood. Hosts were super communicative and were very prompt. Would stay again.
