A unique property in a great location.

We loved the cabin. A very unique property with a great mix of old time cabin and modern amenities. It felt great to get away to a quiet cabin after a busy day in Gatlinburg. I can't think of anything the cabin lacked.

Outstanding!

I have stayed at many cabins over the years and this one by far is one of the best out there. From the start the hosts were very accommodating and inviting. The cabin itself is spectacular. The interior is so warm and inviting, you can’t help but relax. Although cold on my trip the outside has plenty of room to sit and relax as well. The sunroom is a perfect place to relax and read, the kitchen has everything plus some you would need. The bedrooms were comfy and spending hours by the fireplace was amazing. Also the bonus of a jet tub and a steam shower along with heated floors in there were fantastic additions. Overall if you find this charming place available, book it. Because I can’t wait to come back again.

Townsend Delight

Incorporating two authentic log cabins in its build, Mountain Rose offers a real country stay to renters. Comfortable furniture and lots of room provide lots of relaxation, both inside and outside the cabin. This was our second stay here, and we would stay here again.

Rustic cabin

We loved this cabin. The location was about 5 miles from Cade's Cove which was a major attraction that we wanted to go through. The steam shower was amazing. Everyone loved it. The kitchen was big and had a dish washer. We didn't cook while we were there but they had everything we would have needed. There was a TV for everyone and space for everyone as well. The only issue we had was we couldn't find the dumpster for the trash so we took our bag of trash with us. No big deal. We loved this place and look forward to coming back for a longer stay in the future.

This is a truly charming cabin, with its own history, in a lovely community. The community is nestled in among a natural environment, so the trees and plants contribute to the natural feeling. It's also on the Townsend side of the mountain, so there was almost no traffic. We were close enough to restaurants in Townsend, but the owner has provided excellent cookware, so we didn't have to eat out for every meal. Now--keeping in mind that this lovely cabin was once two original rustic cabins, and that spring was reluctant to show up in the Smoky Mountains, there was only one area of the cabin that wasn't as warm as we'd have liked, and that was the sitting area that had been the front porch on one of the original cabins. It's enclosed, and it has a heater, and the windows all around made it our favorite place to relax, despite the chill. The rest of the house stayed very comfortably warm. The front living room was super nice, lots of comfy seating, but we love windows. There is one caveat, and that is the stairs to the upstairs bedroom. Each stair is standard depth, but each lip extends maybe one to two inches over the one below it, making it feel more shallow, particularly going down. The staircase is well lit with motion-sensors and has its own light switch, but if someone in your party has difficulty with stairs, consider giving them the first-floor bedroom. Overall, this was an excellent stay, but let me add an extra bonus for having great communication from the owners.

Great Cabin and location

Really cool and unique property. Two rustic cabins merged together with a lot of nice modern amenities. Well stocked kitchen and a lot of nice amenities like coffee pods, local pumpkin butter and toiletries. Owner also came by at check in to blow off recently downed leaves and lives locally. Great location too - we live in Knoxville so more of a local getaway. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Historic Mountain Rose Cabin

Loved our stay at Mountain Rose Cabin! It is in a beautiful location and stocked with everything you need for a quiet and cozy stay. From the moment we drove onto property and stepped inside the cabin was a wonderful experience. The smell of the wood burning fireplace instantly gives you that cabin feeling. The steam shower was definitely a pleasant surprise to have. The owners were very helpful and informative. Thanks so much for sharing your little peace of heaven with us! Will definitely book this property again!

Our stay couldn’t have been better! The cabin was perfect & lovely! I wanted something with character and history and this was the perfect place for both! It is finished so nicely while at the same time being as cozy as you could want. The logs are so solid and historic all while having heated tiles and a steam shower! Absolutely perfect! The owner was very responsive and so nice.

Quiet Cozy cabin

We enjoyed the very relaxing Mountain Rose Cabin. We hiked all day and then spend our evening cooking, relaxing and playing games with our kids. The porch swing was a delight, my family really enjoyed it! While swing we got an unexpected surprise in the evening and got to watch some fire flies float around. Thank you for sharing you beautiful home with us.
