The cabin we stayed in was a very calming place to stay. And we enjoyed every minute of our stay. Townsend is one of the hidden places to stay. The owners of the cabins are very nice. We will be back.

Peaceful and convenient!

Easy to find, remote enough that we were able to decompress, but only 10 minutes from the grocery store. Well equipped, great porch, perfect hot tub, and right on the river!

Relaxing and Peaceful

Beautiful location on the Little River! Cabin was as pictured, location was so easy to get to (no steep, curvy roads), communication with the owner was easy, and the location was perfect - you can relax on the porch and listen to the water peacefully flowing over and around the rocks.

Fall Getaway

We so enjoyed our stay at the riverfront cabin! Took in many of the local activities hiking, biking, eating, but also enjoyed quiet evenings by the water and lounging in the hot tub. The cabin had everything we needed - fully stocked with lovely linens, ample everyday supplies, etc. Even the torrential rains caused by Hurricane Helene didn't dampen our spirits - we will be back!

Beautiful Cabin

I absolutely loved this cabin and the location. Easy to get to especially with the directions I was provided with by the owner. This cabin is not on a steep hill which was a huge plus for us. It’s right on a lake and the cabin itself was very clean and cozy, will definitely recommend and stay here again!
