About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Extremely clean cabin in a quiet setting with an outdoor fire pit.

Are you overdue for some rest and relaxation? Is it time to get away from the stress and pressures of everyday living? Step into a place where you can find the serenity that only the closeness to nature can provide. Our Hideout log cabin is located in the shadows of beautiful Rich Mountain. Woods alive with the sounds of songbirds surrounding you. Hiking trails with wildflowers and wildlife are just minutes outside your door. Enjoy a leisurely cup of coffee and a good book in your rocking chair on the front porch, or enjoy an evening around the campfire cooking s'mores. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park and lots of fun activities are just a close drive away, but most of our guests say the favorite part of their visit is the 'home away from home' experience they get right at the Hideout.

Please note that the map shows the National Park is 57 minutes away, but that is to the Sugarlands Visitors Center in the middle of the Park. Our cabin is only a 10 minute drive to the National Park's Townsend entrance, or you can hike into the National Park within a 2 minute drive to the Schoolhouse Gap or Rich Mountain trails, (from the lesser known trailheads. Which are favorable during the busy tourist seasons!)

There are several great restaurants in the immediate Townsend area. We highly recommend the award winning Dancing Bear Bistro, which is only 7 minutes away, https://dancingbearlodge.com/dining/. The Abbey (along Little River) has live music on weekends, trivia nights on Thursdays, and daily gourmet specials. The Little River Pub (also along the Little River) has excellent sandwiches, drinks and our favorite Moonshine Pulled Pork Nachos. To experience the "true local favorite” get a world famous chili and slaw hot dog at the Parkway Grocery Gulf gas station. They've sold over a million hot dogs and have been featured on tv. I may be a bit proud and biased because my daughter and son-in-law are the owners, but you won't be disappointed!

Our cabin has cable and Wi-Fi along with the DVR feature in case you don't want to miss your favorite team's games while you're exploring the National Park. There are also card games, board games, books, and puzzles to enjoy while relaxing in the cabin.

If you are really adventurous, you may want to rent mountain bikes and ride the Vee Hollow trails right in Townsend, https://rideveehollow.com/. Or you can rent electric or standard bikes to ride on the bike path that stretches the length of Townsend, while stopping at one of our many coffee shops and local artisan shops for a perfect combination of exercise, fun and relaxation.

Many of our guests have fallen in love with the beauty and peacefulness of vacationing in our cozy Hideout cabin in Townsend, TN, and keep returning year after year. We hope you will too!

This was a very cute and quaint cabin in an excellent location. It was very clean. They even supplied a fire starter block for the fireplace as it's not a gas supplied fireplace. You will need to bring your own lighter though. One if the cabinets was supplied with salt, pepper and coffee. We really enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful cabin and location. We used only 1 bedroom and the bed was not comfortable. The other room may have been better?? The “ hot tub” was nice but difficult to enter and exit without grab bar to help. Sofa was really unusable but the 2 recliners were great! We would return and try the “ other” bedroom.

Beautiful property with everything you need! Quaint, cute and private! Stayed for 3 days with my husband, it was peaceful!! Will certainly try to stay next time, it was a beautiful ride into Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The drive to and through Cades Cove was amazing! We even found a beautiful dirt road that brings you right back to the cabin from Cafes Cove! Dont forget to check iut Tuckaleechee Caverns, only a mile from the cabin, worth the trip!! The Abbey is bay far the best food near the cabin!

This was the perfect peaceful cabin for our family of 4 to explore the Great Smoky Mountain region. Check-in was seamless and the cabin had all of the amenities of home for our use during the week.
