Awesome

The cabin was perfect. The location and view of the river was great. The cabin was clean and had all we needed. The swings on the front and back deck were my favorite place to sit and listen to the roar of the river. Will definitely be back.

Creekside Charm

We love visiting Townsend and staying in this cabin on the water. It is so peaceful and just far enough from the main highway that the only sound you hear is the water rolling over the creek bed. We'll be back again!
