Very Nice!
The cabin was as advertised - quiet and cozy! Very quiet area in the rolling hills and woods. A cozy look and interior made us comfortable. A relaxing atmosphere here and in the surrounding area, especially the city and people of Townsend.

The cabin (Take it easy) and the host were absolutely wonderful. The host is very attentive and the cabin was everything we had hoped it would be. Clean, comfortable, accommodating, bed was comfortable, kitchen had everything you would need and the hot tub was great after a long hike in the mountains. We look forward to returning. Thank you Derek for having us.

Awesome cabin retreat
The cabin was great (exactly as pictured)! Very clean. Hot tub was relaxing and the rocking chairs on the porch were perfect for coffee drinking. Our son loved the lofted area and we all loved that our black lab could come with us on vacation. The beds were comfortable, and the cabin had all the essentials we needed. Oh and the arcade game was fun- I’m not sure if my husband or son liked it more.

Cozy cabin with privacy in a great location
We had a wonderful stay in this cabin. Every room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom and kitchen are a nice size and there's also a loft with room for another couple or children but we didn’t need to use that space. We loved relaxing in the hot tub every night in this peaceful setting and the arcade game was a big hit. Playing the games brought back memories from the 80's for us. We highly recommend staying here. You won't be disappointed!

Perfect family vacation
Tucked away in the perfect spot. Just minutes away from several amazing restaurants and stores. The cabins hosted my family of 4 and our 2 dogs and it was the perfect size. The hot tub was the best to end the day. Kids took full advantage of the arcade machine and loft area and the dogs really enjoyed the spacious porch. The cabin was equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Derek made it super easy to extend our stay an extra night too. Will definitely be back to rent this cabin. Easy to find, no steep drives!

Nice Anniversary getaway
Nice getaway for our 28th anniversary. Quiet neighborhood. Only issue at no fault of cabin owner, is that neighbor cabin let their large aggressive dogs run free. We were charged by one twicetwice. Thankfully neither time my pup was outside. Please leash your dogs!

Lovely little cabin
My husband, daughter, two dogs, and I stayed at the Take It Easy cabin together. It was a very cute and cozy place and I loved the location! The host is wonderful-very attentive and responsive. The cabin is one in a small group that shares a driveway and has a small, shared laundry cabin. We were able to get our laundry done with ease and there was plenty of room to park beside the cabin. As the host mentioned in the description, the stairs to the loft are narrow and steep so it’s not a sleeping area I would recommend for very young children or older adults. However, my 23 year old daughter had no issues at all sleeping up there and I was easily able to get up and down when needed. There is a spacious bedroom and bathroom on the main floor. We also enjoyed the arcade game and the hot tub! The hot tub is located on the front porch with plenty of privacy as the host has enclosed the area with lattice board. We love Townsend! If you’ve never stayed in the area, but enjoy peace and quiet and good local restaurants, you would love it. Many thanks to Derek!

Came for the Jeep event and just to have a few days away. It was wonderful. Our host was amazing. Description was on-point. We were hauling a trailer and it was easy enough to get our truck and trailer into the drive. Worked perfect. Hot tub and video game was a plus :).

Delightful stay. The arcade game was very popular with our traveling group. The hot tub was a wonderful end-of-day relaxation experience. Excellently maintained property and perfect destination for a quiet, peaceful get-away in a lush forested setting. Communication with host was prompt and helpful. Highly recommended!
