Skoog Cedar Manor Family Gathering

We loved the place. It was perfect for our family including little ones. We had plenty of room to be together, yet everyone family had their own space. The property was also well supplied with everything we needed to cook our own family meals together. I personally loved the view. And the kids loved the access to all the things to do. Thank you

Beautiful Property

This home worked great for our group of 10 people. We felt at home here and loved the location, amenities, offerings and layout of the home. The internet/apps on the TV were a little slow/laggy at times but that was the only minor inconvenience. We would absolutely stay here again if we were ever in the area!

Our favorite rental

This truly feels like a home away from home. We go hiking at GSMNP every year, and have stayed here three times already and have just booked our fourth. This is the only place we have ever returned to multiple times.

Family vacation

The house was perfect ,we were able to stay ,enjoy each others company in the large dining and kitchen area ,then retreat to the comfort of our individual rooms. This location allows you to be close enough to both pigeon forge and the beautiful Smokey Mountains but not too close. This is a great house for family and friends to gather to enjoy the surrounding beauty and each others company.

Over the years this has been our go to place for our trips to the Smokey Mts. This is the perfect place for families as the way the house is set up. The porch has one of the premier views in the Smokies.The location is perfectly situated for those who want to go to Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg or even better for avquick trip to Townsend.Our family spent a lot of time at the swimming pool while others spent their time hiking.Our host has bent over backwards accomodating our every need.Our stay was probably summed up best by our 3 year old grandson crying and saying I like this house I don't want to go home.

Why they chose this property

Great smoky Mountain location.

What makes this property unique

The view from the deck is unsurpassed in the area and the deck is the perfect place to enjoy a cup of coffee or glass of wine. Having lived in Florida so long, we really enjoy that we can enjoy all 4 seasons at the cabin. Townsend is on the "quiet side" of the mountain yet close enough to Knoxville, Gatlinburg, and Pigeon Forge to enjoy the "touristy" stuff and then come back to the cabin for relaxation and family time.
