Excellent stay! House was exactly as pictured and described. We were in town for a car show so the location was perfect; right off the main road so we could come and go easily throughout the day. We will be back in April!

Lonestar Cabby

Fantastic experience from beginning to end. Check-in process was super easy...cabin was even better than the photos. Great location...Even though we visited for a family reunion held close by, we managed to find some local spots worth mentioning: The Company Distillery for bourbon and lunch. Peaceful Side Social was excellent for lunch as well. Looking forward to a return visit!

Great place to stay.

We really enjoyed our time in Townsend. We were there for 12 nights. The house was great and well taken care of. Tiffany even sent us a nice care package about half way through our stay. We will be looking to book again for next year.

Beautiful Cabin Conveniently Located

What a wonderful experience. On the pricier side of most cabins in the area, but worth every penny. Owner was VERY responsive when we had one small issue, and got it corrected very expeditiously. Can't say enough good things. We had a few families all staying there together and some friends over to eat with us while we were there, and the house accommodated a gathering of about 25 people VERY comfortably while we cooked and ate. Wonderful experience, will stay here again.

Really great

The house was just as pictured. This is a beautiful home with lots of space (especially in the kitchen, which is a priority for us). The house is well maintained, it is clean and everything works as it should. The host was very available and responded to my questions or needs very quickly. Every VRBO stay should be like this. I recommend this property and host and we plan to stay here again.
