Cabin with beautiful view, on 'Peaceful Side of the Smokies'

A charming and beautiful cabin with real rustic split log construction with sweet surroundings! Has a very beautiful view, cabin is situated in a log cabin community, but don't worry, it is very private. It has its own large driveway and is located off of the road which gives it some much desired peace and quiet. The cabin has a large covered deck with a swing, sitting area, two rocking chairs, gas grill, and private hot tub.
Can't describe how beautiful the view is from here!!!
Inside the cabin, you will find a loft bedroom with a very comfortable king size bed and half bath, dresser and armoir.
Downstairs there is a nice living room with a sixty- inch flat screen TV, DVD player, free WIFI, Comcast cable. The cabin has central heat and air conditioning and is very well insulated for warmth on those cold days and nights in the winter. And to keep you cool on those hot days and nights in the summer. There is a gas burning rock fireplace as well.
The kitchen is fully equipped to cook a meal for your loved one including a dishwasher range, microwave, toaster, refrigerator, coffee pot and more.
The full bathroom downstairs has a tub/shower combo and washer and dryer. There is also a huge whirlpool jetted tub for a late night soak !! Also has a full size pool table.
Windancer is located in a log cabin community which gives you accessibility to the seasonal swimming pool and covered pavilion.
The cabin is almost on top of the mountain, there 3 more cabins above my cabin.
Concrete roads all the way to the cabin. Front wheel drive vehicles are sufficient most of the time but all wheel drive or 4-wheel drive is suggested for all guests to be more comfortable if it rains or winter weather is around !!
This is how you get the great view and seclusion.
This cabin will sleep 2 adults upstairs and have a pull out sofa downstairs, but it is only big enough for 2 children. Cabin is not large enough for 4 adults.
I have 2 security cameras, 1points to steps going up to porch. One points toward driveway.
Townsend offers many wonderful things to do. Here you can go swimming, biking, tubing, fishing, horse back riding, take beautiful photographs of awesome mountain and river views.
Townsend also has art and craft stores and several great restaurants and Churches. Wedding and events Venue is located about an eighth of a mile from cabin.
Cabin is about 5 - 10 minutes from the Great Smoky Mountain National park and Cades Cove entrance. And about 30 to 40 minutes through the beautiful mountains to get to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.
I also have a larger cabin in this resort on flat land, no mountain to climb, but you don't have the view as the other cabin. If you aren't used to driving in the mountains I recommend this cabin for you, you just don't get the view as you do at #157. It is a higher nightly rate. But it is a lot bigger cabin

There are bears in the resort, so please do not leave food on porch or your vehicle and make sure you keep your vehicle locked.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. The bathroom offers a jetted tub and hair dryers. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

Wonderful view and peaceful setting. Convenient location to Townsend and the national park. Comfy bed, and hot tub was nice. Pool table was quite worn and positioned where it was hard to play from every side. Overall a great place to stay.

Great Cabin for Couples

We were looking for somewhere small and somewhat secluded to spend a few days away for our anniversary. The cabin was exactly as described, very clean and just right for a couple. It would’ve been a bit crowded with our kids, but for just the two of us it was just right. If we were getting away just the two of us again, we wouldn’t hesitate to rebook Wind Dancer.
