About this property

Rocky Hollow is a true log cabin wrapped in the sights and sounds of the Mountains.
The bedding is inviting and the cabin itself has personality that will help you to retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life!
Enjoy your morning coffee on the front porch, looking out onto the beautiful outcroppings of Limestone rock that have given this cabin its name.

Rocky Hollow is located in the private Mountain Community of Laurel Valley only moments from the Cades Cove Entrance to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.
As you step inside you will be greeted by the stunning staircase of twisted Mountain Laurel branches. The main level keeping room features a stone fireplace to warm those crisp fall and winter evenings.
The kitchen will serve you well, from new granite counters to the farm house cabinets.
The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you will need to cook a full meal, or nuke a burger.
If you prefer to cook out, there is a gas grill and outdoor dining area that overlook the private wooded back yard.
After a long day in the park, enjoy slipping into the luxury King Size bed in the main level master bedroom. This is only steps from the main level bathroom that features a walk in shower.
That beautiful staircase will lead you to the loft sitting area. This area is great for watching television on the huge flatscreen television complete with cable, playing cards, or just enjoying the company of those you have traveled with.
The upper level has a full bath with tub and shower combination, and a luxury queen size bed.
Luxury linens, towels and bedding are provided.

Relaxing and Atmospheric

A delight to visit. Classic forest cabin feel, made perfect by the mountain decor. All furnishings functional as described. No surprises. Good room for parking. Cabin is situated at the end of a mountain cove, giving it surprising privacy, while at the same time the benefit of neighbors not far away. A gated community. Everything we needed was supplied, and the host only a phone call away. Would stay again!

Wonderful vacation in a perfect cabin

This cabin was exactly what we wanted, expected, and needed. Communication with the owner was completely timely and satisfactory. Kitchen supplies were everything needed to cook meals. Water pressure & hot water amounts were great. Furniture was comfortable. Beds & bedding were perfectly comfortable. The driveway is slightly steep but was completely manageable with backing in to park our F250 pickup. The grill was absolutely completely clean and the outdoor seating on the front and back porches were perfect to enjoy the cool weather. Wood for the fireplace was provided and that was very much appreciated. A week was just not long enough in this comfortable cabin in such a nice quiet neighborhood. We did not see a bear but a turkey did cruise through. The sound of the birds early in the morning was wonderful to hear. We will definitely return to this cabin.

Peaceful but Hairy

We enjoyed our stay here. The property manager was very responsive to messages. The fireplace was amazing. We did note that throughout the house the cleanliness was lacking as there was dust and pet hair everywhere. We were aware of it being a pet-friendly location, however, with the fee for pets staying there, we did expect a deep cleaning to be done after each pet visit. We also enjoyed the access to a washer and dryer. We do wish there would have been a TV downstairs so we did not have to take snacks for the games upstairs. We were unable to cast to the TV as it was an older model and there were issues with the Roku allowing access for casting due to needing an access pin. Overall, we enjoyed a relaxing long weekend for the holiday.

About the host

Hosted by Cyndie Cornelius

We arrived in the Smokies over eight years ago. Our first trip was a fly fishing adventure. Until then, my only Smokies adventure had been to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.
Townsend proved to be an oasis in the mountains. The setting is serene and peaceful and without the trappings of the more recognized areas. Trout were not the only things hooked that weekend... we were as well. Just one year later, we arrived in Townsend to live full time. It took a year to make it happen, but we were determined to make the Smokies our home.
We surely can not imagine living anywhere else. Waking every morning to the sunrise over the mountains, and the sights and sounds of the birds and other wild life living in the area, is an unbelievable experience.

It has been our objective to educate others about the wonders of living here in this beautiful place and we have done our best to create an environment that will hopefully give our guests a place to call home when they come to visit.
The number of returning guests has grown greatly in the past years.
