Yellow Door Cabin

A little outdated but overall good cabin! Hot-tub cover was flaking and several small flakes were left in the water but management knew of issue and had new covers already on order and awaiting delivery. Blind on lower bedroom were broke and needed replaced. Other than that, great place for a small family to stay!

Wonderful Host

We loved this property and host! We had some worry about the incoming snow at the time of our trip and he was accommodating for the check-in, let us make new plans in case the snow got too bad, and salted the driveway! It was a fabulous cabin! Perfect for me and my sisters! We had such a great time and plan on using this same cabin space for future trips!Highly recommend!!

Great Girls Trip!

Super cute cabin! The pictures do not do it justice. The town of Townsend is so cute and it’s nice to stay away from the business of Gatlinburg. Lots of nice little restaurants and coffee shops. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and the fire pit. I will definitely stay again next time I’m in that area.

As always, amazing!

This is my husband and I’s second stay with the painted door cabins. This year we rented the yellow door because of the loft for my stepdaughter. It’s the perfect space for kids and she loved it. It allowed for us to have our own private spaces without being on top of eachother. The cabin was fully equipped with what I needed to make our Thanksgiving dinner. Cannot wait to book our next stay!

Great little cabin in the woods

I loved that this cabin was not in the middle of nowhere and secluded enough for solitude but not isolated from civilization. The property was clean and well stocked with just about anything needed to enjoy your stay. Only thing I wish is that there was a dummy guide to using the fireplace because we didn’t have a clue how to get it started. Definitely would stay again!

We had a very nice stay at the yellow door cabin! Everything was great, the cabin was clean and the hot tub worked great! The location is very nice too if you’re wanting to get away from the business of Pigeon Forge and we liked that Cade’s Cove was only about a 20 minute drive away.

Peaceful Side of the Smokies

We stayed in the cabin in Townsend without really knowing the difference between staying in Townsend and Staying in Pidgeon Forge and are we glad we did. So happy we stayed in the quiet, quaint small town without the thousands of people. The cabin was clean and easy to locate. We were very comfortable. The ONLY complaint was the TV (the few times we watched) was mounted too high above the fireplace. But that is a first world problem isn't it? If we returned to GSMNP we would stay in the same cabin again. This is the best place to access the National Park too, MUCH less traffic that way.
