“Elk Summit” Log Cabin* Awesome VIEWS!
Enjoy the "peaceful side of the Smokies" as fall settles in!
Thunderhead Ridge Cabin Rentals offers a new way to explore the Smokey Mountain Region. We Feature our Luxurious Two-Bedroom, Spacious Cabins with Breathtaking Views of Thunderhead Mountain and The Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. These Pet-Friendly Cabins include a Hot Tub and a Wood Burning Fireplace Overlooking the Views.
"Elk Summit" is nestled in the woods overlooking the valleys in and around Townsend Tennessee.
The 2BR/1Bath cabin is perfect for 4 guests with a comfortable queen bed in each bedroom. No problem if you have a couple of extra kids or friends--there's also room for two more guests on the queen sofa bed in the den. The cabin has a portable pack-and-play. Tv's are smart tv's only and you must login to whatever app you would like to use.
Enjoy the amazing view from the private hot tub on the cabin deck! Or if you prefer, soak in the indoor jacuzzi tub. Either one is a great way to relax after a long day hiking :)
Grill some burgers on the outdoor propane grill or enjoy a fire in the real-wood fireplace. We provide propane for the grill all year and a starter bundle of firewood for the fireplace from mid-October through mid-March. Many local stores sell bundled firewood should you need more.
The kitchen is complete with full size fridge, microwave, drip coffeemaker, stove and kitchen basics such as dishes, glasses, and silverware. We provide coffee, sugar, powdered creamer, coffee filters, and a variety of basic cooking spices for your convenience.
The cabin is part of Thunderhead Ridge, a 25-acre getaway with beautiful views, areas for walking dogs, and plenty of tranquility. You can cast in a line or float tube down the Little River, just a quick 2-minute drive from the cabin. Trout fishing is popular up-stream inside the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. In summertime, we offer access to a luxury community pool about 5-10 min away. You can even book a round of golf at Laurel Valley Golf Course. Also, no need to worry about unwanted disturbances and traffic – Thunderhead Ridge Cabins is a secluded and gated property.
