So loved staying in the Thunderhead Ridge Cabins! The views are unbeatable and the cabins were so cozy I didn’t want to leave! I would highly recommend a stay here with friends or a romantic getaway. They are close enough to entertainment that if you want to go and enjoy a day or night out you can but then when you get home it’s peace and quiet surrounded by nature on all sides! I can’t wait to go back!

The views are amazing and being close to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg was great. The cabin had everything we needed and we enjoyed having a fire every night. We enjoyed our time so much, that we booked a family trip and took our children and some of their friends as well. We rented the Mystical Moose and the Elk Summit so we could be close and just walk from cabin to cabin. The kids loved the hot tubs! I would highly recommend staying and we plan on going back soon!

A perfect cabin to spend the week in Townsend. All appliances you will need are provided as well as a beautiful view and Hottub. Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg are also a short drive away. Our group of 5 enjoyed every minute and will definitely stay there again.
