10/10 Excellent
"Cabin was clean and had a very peaceful, serene vibe with ample parking. I enjoyed the observation deck and having gorgeous mountain views. The location was perfect too, only about a 10 minute drive to Great Smoky Mountains NP. I was in town to run the Black Bear Double (5K and half) and the race expo and finish line were even closer. I highly recommend this location for your stay in Townsend!"
