So rustic and cozy!
10/10 recommend! This cabin is perfect for family vacations, lots of room to spread out and the hot tub was perfect after a crazy long wedding weekend! The beds were very comfortable and clean and we loved the bed swing. Can’t wait to come back and enjoy Townsend again!

Perfect Location
All three of the couples that stayed there loved the location and the cabin. Townsend is the quiet side of the Smokies, but it’s perfectly located to Gatlinburg, Seiverville and pigeon Forge. You couldn’t ask for a better location. We would definitely stay there again.

Great Cabin and great Experience
Upon arrival the cabin is in a nice woods setting. It’s close to town but far enough away that it was quiet and cozy. The cabin had a great feel to it and felt like home compared to the commercialized cabins in Gatlinburg or the bigger town. The inside was extremely clean and comfortable, had plenty of space and just felt “homie”. Great cabin and hope it’s available on our next trip.

Quick weekend trip
Overall the cabin was ok. We were able to enjoy our time. It could have been better had we been aware of a few things. There were several rocky, uneven, stairs to walk down to get into the cabin which was hard on my elderly sisters. I thought by the photos there was no steps. All of the outside furniture was extremely dirty, dusty, and had long hair in many places on the cushions. All of the outside porch area needed a deep cleaning - lots of dust and cobwebs - we did not feel comfortable using the outside seating. Too bad as there was lots of chairs, swings, rockers, etc. Apparently some type of construction across the street that blew dust towards us so bad we had to run inside the house. The inside was clean - but all the blinds were very dusty and windows were so dirty it was hard to see out of the windows on the back side of the house. Other than that the interior of the house was clean. The lawn crew came at 8:30 Saturday morning. Even used their very loud, gas powered blower and literally walked up on and all around on the porch of the house - at 8:30am!! Honestly would not rent this one again. It just was not a good fit for us.

Very Enjoyable
My wife and I enjoyed a very relaxed week here. The cabin was clean and well maintained. Communication with the owner was prompt. Everything was as presented on the web site. While it was just the 2 of us and we didn't take advantage of things like the hot tub or fire pit the cabin would be a great place for a large or multiple families with a lot of activities available. We chose it for it's peaceful location and easy accessibility to the peaceful side of the Smokies. We had a great time and would love to come back again.

Absolutely PERFECT!!!
The cabin is in a great location close to town but far enough away to have privacy. It had everything we needed with several special touches like liquid hand soap in all the bathrooms and nice quality toilet paper!! The hot tub was awesome and the outdoor lighting was beautiful!! We will be back!!

Great stay!
We stayed at the cabin while visiting family that have homes in Townsend. The location was great and close to all that Townsend has to offer, but still very quiet. The house was great for us as our kids got their own space, but we weren't too spread out. The screened in porch was very nice as was the hot tub.

The 7 am wake up from the yard guy running a back blower on the deck Saturday morning and then mowing was unacceptable to us for a vacation home. Otherwise the home was very nice. We suggest the owner address this action.

Perfect for family
We had an awesome stay at this cabin with plenty of space to be together or quiet areas to get in that afternoon nap. There are 3 levels with sleeping arrangements or/and gathering areas. A large wrap around porch with half being screened in and a relaxing hot tub. We made use of all, including a huge fire pit area. Great place to stay while in Smoky's. Less than 10 miles to Cades Cove. Would stay again if in the area.

Tennessee Cades Cove Wedding Stay
We stayed here for a week for my daughter’s wedding in Cades Cove. Absolutely perfect location! Easy access to the park and surrounding areas. The owner is great with communication and access to the cabin is easy. Great screened in porch for a hang out spot! We played cards and sat out there in the evenings. Perfect place for a family to stay while you visit the Great Smokey Mountains.

The location of this cabin is amazing. The road juts off a highway into the woods on a short street. The porch faces the woods and it is extremely beautiful and very peaceful. It has a huge porch swing slash bed. The beds are all comfortable and it is very clean. The kids loved the downstairs which has its own TV room and play station. Along with its own bathroom. Access to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg was easy. This was quite the find. Will stay again.

Lovely property! Definitely recommend!
This property was ideally located and absolutely lovely, inside and out. It was extremely clean, had spacious indoor lounging areas, and amble outdoor areas to sit and spend time with family. We spent a lot of time hiking in the Smokies, and we really enjoyed coming back to that house to relax in the evenings. I especially appreciated the little things that the hosts provided for our stay: a binder full of recommendations on trails, area activities, and grocery stores; board games; ample dish and hand soap; and high-quality toilet paper to name a few. (The toilet paper showed they weren’t just purchasing the cheapest option and spent a little more to improve our stay.) These few added steps on their part went a long way. The only two things I would suggest for improvement were getting new pans (as they looked pretty beat) and adding screens to windows and doors (we weren’t able to open them a few days due to wasp activity around the house). Overall, the cabin was a 10/10! I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Blue Door is THE Cabin
Blue Door is THE cabin to stay at in Townsend. Located right off the Lamar Alexander Parkway it’s convenient to the Park, restaurants, shopping, and the newly completed Company Distillery. Anthony, the host, is very accommodating and communication and response time is off the charts good. The cabin is very clean and all furnishings, TVs, beds, and kitchen exceeded our expectations. This is the ONLY cabin to stay in when visiting Townsend!
