Cades Cove Landing Condo-Little River Loft
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Plan your next Smoky Mountain adventure at this lovely riverfront condo in Townsend, where you'll find such wonderful shared amenities as a pool, a two-level covered deck, and a tranquil firepit on the banks of the Little River. You'll swim, hike, and explore during the day, and come home to relax by the fireplace and the flatscreen TV.
What's nearby:
This condo sits one mile west of the quaint Appalachian town of Townsend, directly adjacent to the 10-mile Townsend Historical Trail. You can dine at local eateries, sip wine at Cades Cove Cellars (one mile west), and enjoy free admission to the Little River Railroad & Lumber Museum (one mile east). The stalagmites and stalactites of the Tuckaleechee Caverns are three miles south, and the incredible trails, fishing streams, and waterfalls of Great Smoky Mountains National Park begin four miles south.
Things to know:
- This Vacasa Guestworks vacation rental is operated and managed locally by an independent host.
Prior to your arrival, you will receive local host contact information, who will manage your guest reservation. Your local host will provide in-stay support, secure entry, and arrange pre- and post-stay housekeeping services.
If you need anything during your stay, the home’s independent local host is ready to help 24/7! Guestworks is a service offering of Vacasa that allows homeowners to smoothly and efficiently manage their own properties.
