Fall Family Gathering
Wonderful accommodations, fantastic views. Dishwasher had not been emptied and dishes were still in it . Kitchen and living area needed to be swept or vacuumed. That was not a reflection on the owner, but the cleaning crew. Awesome cabin, well appointed and comfortable beds! Would definitely recommend!

Another awesome vacation at Knotty Pine
This was our 7th time staying at Knotty Pine for our almost annual vacation to the smokies and it was great as usual! We love staying on the “quiet” side of the smokies, visiting and hiking in Cades Cove, shopping and seeing a show in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Then relaxing in the hot tub when we returned.

Comfortable time with family in the smokies
Property is easy to find and has easy access to all the Smokies has to offer. Quiet, restful and relaxing if that is what you want in your vacation. We were a family of seniors and that was important.

Beautiful Cabin
We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin, it was a perfect size for our family of 5. The location is perfect with easy access to townsend and cades cove. Very minimal travel to main townsend road which is hard to find. We will definitely stay again.

Beautiful Mountain View
We loved this property. The location is close enough to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg for day trips and then come back and relax in the quiet. The cabin was very clean, had everything we needed for our stay and perfect for our group. We took our grandkids to golf course pool and enjoyed having a drink while they swam. The view of the mountains were beautiful from the cabin deck. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Great Stay
It was a very nice cabin in the woods. We would have liked to see more mountains from our view. It was rather far to travel to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg and it took a longer time than anticipated. However, We enjoyed our stay.

Amazing property & owners!
I've never been to TN before so I wasn't sure about much when I was booking my stay. The photos of this house looked great and the property was even more amazing than the photos show!! The house was very clean, each bedroom having its own bathroom was amazing, sitting on the deck drinking coffee and looking at the mountains was amazing - I could go on and on. I highly recommend this property!!

Cades cove getaway
Kitchen was well equipped. Very comfortable beds. Driveway was easy to manage. View was beautiful, we had turkey and deer visit with us in the front yard. We had plenty room for my family of 6. We drove to Cades cove and Gatlinburg. Thank you for the opportunity to use your beautiful home.

Spring Break getaway
This cabin had everything we needed for a nice comfortable stay. The Townsend area offers less dining options, but the peaceful side has many perks. Getting in and out of GSMT is easy. Traffic is minimal. You’re closer to Maryville which has everything else you might need. We would definitely stay here again !

Wonderful cabin with beautiful view
The cabin itself was just as described and seen in the photos in the listing. Townsend is a very small town but we enjoyed the peace. This home had everything we needed, is in a gated community and conveniently had free access to the nearby fitness center on the golf course. Mary Jane was very attentive and even worked directly with our Babyquip representative to get things setup for our daughter before we even got there. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Another Tennessee Christmas
This was not our first Christmas spent in the foothills of the Smokies in a rented cabin, so a review and ratings from us come from a comparative standpoint - and I say - "hats off to the Grays! Attention to detail is very important to me(us), so a well-supplied kitchen, wood at the fire pit, and Christmas decorations throughout the house not only made the cabin feel like Christmas, but made it feel like home as well. Thank you for making our Christmas special!

Nice, quiet place to stay
Far enough away from pigeon Forge to feel like you’re in the country, but close enough to go and do touristy things for the day. Great beds. House next-door is closer than I expected but the divider fence obscured view of hot tub. Nice fire pit below the house.

Family pigeon forge/Gaitlinburg winter vacay
We arrived at the cabin everything was nice and clean with all things you would need in the kitchen. Plenty of room with three king sized bedrooms. The pictures does make the cabin seem bigger and seem like the views would be from the bedrooms as well. But the views from the front porch made up for that! It was gorgeous, the fire pit was nice, we were able to make s’mores every night we were there. I do however wish there was a propane or deck fire pit, the fire pit was a long walk down the mountain in the dark without lightening to the trail down. Hot tub was very nice, it relaxed my muscles for sure after long days of walking. The stairs are steep and narrow inside and very easy to fall on, id suggest making sure you have the light on so you can see the stairs going up and down. Going down the stairs one night I didn’t know there was a switch at the top and completely slide all the way down bruising my hip. All in all the cabin is super cute and perfect for a small family of 5 or a couple different couples.

This cabin was everything we had hoped it would be. Beautiful from top to bottom with a great view of the mountains. Spending Thanksgiving with the family in the Smokies at this cabin was like being in a Norman Rockwell painting. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

Well stocked and comfy beds!
We spent a long weekend at Knotty Pine and it was awesome. The house was clean and fully stocked! We did not need anything while we were there because the cabin had it. One hugh plus was the comfort level of all the beds. Everyone in our group talked about how great they were which is rare to find in a rental. If we make it back to Townsend, we will definitely look to see if Knotty Pine is available first!

Beautiful home within a few minutes to Townsend, TN
We throughly enjoyed our stay. Beautiful mountain view out the big front porch. You can see this view from the living areas and kitchen. The kitchen was well stocked for daily cooking. It was an extra nice feature for everyone to have their own bathroom. 2 bedrooms/bathrooms upstairs and the master bedroom/bathroom downstairs. Beds were comfortable. Bring your own bath soaps. Basic supplies are provided. The upstairs has a balcony area overlooking the living room. There are neighbors right next door, but never saw or heard them, if any were at the house. The trees between the houses hides them well. Unfortunately we didn't have time to try the hot tub or fire pit.

Comfortable cabin in Townsend
We loved our stay at Knotty Pines! The cabin was very clean and cozy. The owner has put a lot of thought into making the cabin an enjoyable experience for guests. The beds are comfortable and each bedroom has its own private bath. We really enjoyed our long weekend in Townsend. We went hiking and tubing, visited the pool at Wild Laurel Resort, explored the Tuckaleechee Caverns and visited Dollywood.
