Authentic cabin 5 miles to GSMNP & Cades Cove. Great views. Easy roads & access
Apple Latch Inn reminds you of slower, simpler and more content times. Easy mornings on the porch with cool breezes, mountain views and hot coffee. Evening grilling before games, fire or movies. Time to reconnect, to laugh and make new memories...we offer that! Our renovations have kept the cabins original charm and added modern conveniences. (Central AC/Heat, W/D, dish washer. Also, a heater & water heater that work in power outages) Saving money is easy because we include a coffee pot, crock pot, full kitchen, grill and fun around the firepit! GSMNP & the Little River are 3-5 miles away, or walk to Tuckaleechee Caverns. After, refresh in our classic bathrooms before a quiet nights rest. With 4 guests, the layout is like having 2 master suites. (Or sleep 2 more on our queen sofa bed) We also have 3 tv's and wi-fi (if you're into that sorta thing) The roads and access are easy. Everything has been considered so that you can be relaxed, refreshed and be the best version of yourself!

Townsend TN trip
The stay was perfect. The cabin is modern and very well decorated with the smoky mountains theme. It was perfectly clean and well stocked. The host (Brandi) was wonderful. Plenty of parking for our two trucks and bike trailers. It is close to Townsend for restaurants and groceries. We plan to come stay again.

Quiet and accessible
Cute place with a wrap around deck, quiet and peaceful while still being close to the highway. Host was available and checked in multiple times to make sure we had everything we needed. Will book again!
