Whether you're planning a peaceful family vacation, a romantic honeymoon, or a quiet mountain escape, our cozy log cabin offers the perfect retreat—nestled right on the banks of the scenic Little River in Townsend, Tennessee.

Few places in the Smokies offer the experience of staying directly on the river, where you can relax to the sound of flowing water, fish from the shore, or simply enjoy the view from your porch. Our cabin combines privacy, comfort, and unbeatable riverfrontbeauty in the heart of “The Peaceful Side of the Smokies.”

Located just 2 miles from the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Cades Cove, our cabin gives you the best of both worlds—secluded riverside relaxation with easy access to the park’s most popular attractions.

    I wasn’t sure how we would get the key. I just happened to check the box that held the key and it was unlocked. I was expecting a code. The cabin was great. We’ve been here before.

    A very tranquil place to stay! Our host was amazing! Check-in was seamless. Beds & pillows were like sleeping on clouds. Host has the hot tub drained after each group leaves so it was pristine (I usually skeptical of cleanliness of hot tubs but, no worries here!)

    This property is exactly as pictured. It is very roomy, and beautifully furnished. The water and mountain view was just what we were wanted. We met the owner and he was really nice and quickly responded to emails before our arrival.

    We have stayed in a lot of cabins, and this was by far the cleanest. It was immaculately clean. There were plenty of towels, and the king bed in the primary upstairs was so comfortable that I wish I knew what kind of mattress it was. The location is super convenient and easy to access. Richard was excellent to communicate with, and check-in was a breeze. The proximity to the water and having the fire pit placed where you could enjoy it from the porch was nice, even though we had rain during more of our stay and didn't get to enjoy it. The only thing I'd make note of is that there is no dishwasher, so plan ahead for disposables if you plan to enjoy the fully stocked kitchen and make meal.Thank you for a great stay.

    We really enjoyed this beautiful cabin! Everything was perfect! The beds were so comfortable! The hot tub was great! The location is great! The river, the fishing, the fireflies!!! We brought our own tubes & walked up the road, sometimes got a ride, to float back down to the cabin…played dominoes on the rainy afternoon days…cooked & grilled, only had to bring groceries… Everything was GREAT!!!! Can’t wait to go back! Thank You so much for the perfect place to make beautiful family memories!

    We arrived an hour early and the house was ready for us despite being ahead of schedule. Communication with the owner was excellent. The house location and the town of Townsend was perfect for our family. Loved everything about our stay at the The Fishing Hole.

    What a great location! We visited Townsend last July and planned to return. Less than a year later we ended up in the Fishing hole cabin. Very clean and well laid out cabin, had everything we needed to feel right at home. What a location, If the road wasn’t in the way I could have cast directly into the river from the deck. The cabin was just as represented in the listing and the owner was very engaged. We had a couple of questions and they responded immediately. To top off the stay the neighbors, some visitor and some permanent residents, were amazing. Southern hospitality 100%, they pointed us to fishing spots and one even came back and gave us his favorite lure and bait. We will return to Townsend again and if Fishing holes cabin is available it will be at the top of our list to rent.

    Beautiful cabin on the river. We had 2 couples with ample space & seating. Comfortable king size beds & cozy furniture in the living area. We really enjoyed the fireplace. Relaxed nightly on the oversized porch with a swing and Adirondack chairs. Peaceful!!excellent communication from the host. We will return!

    This cabin was an amazing experience and we’ll be back. Clean, beautiful place with great fire pit, very comfy beds, and nice quiet location. We had a very minor issue come up that I reached out to the owner on and he was there the next night fixing it. And was a great person to talk with. Next time in Townsend, no question we’ll stay here again!
