Floral haze stiffeled us.

Ill equipped in the kitchen. Very poor quality kitchen ware. Paper towels and tissue very chintzy. No extra blankets to be found for 2 nites in the 30s. Carport lights didnt work. Outdoor walk ways unlevel and treacherous House deodorizer was stiffeling and open windows didn't help. Owner needs to know persons with asthma are at risk.

BUCKETLIST ADVENTURE

The stay was great! Perfect spot! The minor complaints i have seem to be the same as other past guest's, not sure why they havent been addressed??? The Shower door needs attention as well as the tub faucet. The kitchen isnt really stocked with everything you need, so be prepared, i wasnt cooking but needed a wine opener and noticed no dish rags or towels to even do dishes other than using the dishwasher. We loved Townsend and gratefull for our experiences. Oh, on the plus side the AC works great.

Great mountain get away

Really enjoyed this place very cozy. Awesome views from the screened porch of the woods.nice open floor space. Loved the real wood burning fireplace. Kitchen had everything we needed. Pet friendly and a safe, upscale, gaited golf community. Only negative was the shower. Shower knob was extremely lose and the shower doors were whacked. The rest of the bathroom was very nicely updated. My guess is owners are in the process of replacing the shower enclosure. Because everything else was nicely updated. Will be back. Thank you, Christian

We loved this cabin! There are a couple of minor things that need to be attended to, but they did not keep us from enjoying our stay. We are already planning a return trip in the spring. We also loved the location, not right on top of other cabins. It was great!

Beautiful Area

My husband and I came from California to visit our daughter (who lives in Nashville.) We spent the weekend at this lovely cabin. THe first day, the 3-mile walk around the "block" turned out to be more lovely than our hike in the National Park. Cabin has everything you need, and the bonus is a small porch where you can sit out among the trees. One word of caution: the place to pick up your key for the cabin is several miles down the road. (Something that didn't quite register until we arrived. )

Week long stay at cabin just outside GSMNP

We enjoyed our stay here. Cabin was clean, comfortable, and cozy. Although in a community of other cabins, we still felt like we were secluded in the woods and it was nice and quiet.

Updates Needed

Property was in a Beautiful residential location. We loved the area, but the house needed some updates. The shower doors in the bathroom were not on rollers and could not hardly slide back and forth. Also, the tub was slick, needed a rubber mat, someone could easily slip. The original picture showed a Keurig machine but their wasn't one-just a regular coffee maker. The outside of the house was very worn, needed staining. The furniture on the screen porch was very old and worn, not clean. Also, the last night we were there, the AC went out, but eventually came back on. The beds were not comfortable, really needed new mattresses. In all we had a good stay, but would not stay in this house again. The front desk was very accommodating and friendly. Despite the "cons" on the trip, we enjoyed our time.

Very Relaxing

This was our first time staying in this cabin but our 3rd trip to the area. The cabin was nice ..it was a little outdated and the bathtub was a little small and the shower sliding doors didn't work that well..the bed was really comfortable. Could use a bigger TV in the living area. Loved the swing and the screened in porch. My husband loved that the golf course was right there. Overall this was a nice place to stay.

Excellent cabin

I expected the cabin to be a bit cramped since it was just a two bed/one bath but actually it’s quite roomy. The backyard is wooded and then overlooks the golf course. There is a regular coffee pot, so bring coffee, not pods. We enjoyed staying here, no complaints!

This was such an amazing experience and stay

We greatly enjoyed our stay at this cabin, everything you could need was available for our use. The cabin is absolutely stunning and the location was great. All the staff was more than helpful especially since we forgot a firearm there, they went out of their way to ship it out to us. Would definitely recommend using them again.

Comfortable stay

The cabin was perfect layout and enough room! Felt like home! Quiet area with great views and back yard area was beautiful. Defaults!!!! Glass shower door fell off of the track, fortunately it did not break. It had been reported in previous reviews. The kitchen was poorly equipped with utensils, etc. I found a wad of bubble gum on the window seal in the bedroom. Then the glass storm door was very weak and felt like it was going to break at any moment with all the screws that it was clinging to! Just a great little place, but needs some attention! Oh we did replace the empty propane tank for the grill with a full one!!!! Beds are comfy
