Creekside 2 Bedroom Cabin by RedAwning

Townsend

"This place was perfect for our trip. It’s located close to everything the area has to offer. We didn’t have more than a 45 minute drive to get to anything. The place is simple, in a good way. It has everything you need and nothing you don’t. The best part is the back deck over the mountain creek. It was very relaxing to sit out there and listen to the water. We spent most of our time at the cabin enjoying that. The hot tub on the deck was a nice bonus as well. The area is absolutely beautiful...

"We were surprised that for a very high property fee. There was no ice no ice trays no coffee no amenities on the property at all. Also, GPS does not get you to the property. We had to download an app on our phone and in just reading the description of the property were able to get directions, however those were even wrong as it said to turn it to Phillips 66 gas station and it has been a gas station since 2018 "

"Beautiful cabin. Very close to town yet secluded. No neighbors can be seen or heard from the cabin or its excellent second story deck. A short drive to Cades Cove, the best place to see bears in the continental United States. The host was extremely helpful and responsive. There was a local power outage at 5:30 am, having nothing to do with the property itself, I called the host, he immediately answered and then called the power company. One concern is that the steep gravel driveway offers...
