Heaven Lane Cabins

Seven cabins clustered on the same wooded ridge above Townsend --- the peaceful side of the Smokies --- the Heaven Lane Cabins by AvantStay bring together a combined 14 bedrooms, sleeping 42 guests. It's an ideal setup for multigenerational reunions, milestone celebrations, or any group big enough that one roof just isn't going to cut it.

This is the quieter gateway to Great Smoky Mountains National Park, where the pace slows the moment you turn off the highway. Downtown Townsend sits 7 minutes away, and two park entrances are just 9 minutes from your door --- close enough for spontaneous hikes, far enough that the only soundtrack at night is the breeze through the trees. Every cabin comes with its own private hot tub, long-range mountain views, and a covered deck or porch built for unhurried mornings, and a shared fire pit gives the whole group one central place to gather after dark for s'mores and stories under the stars. Cades Cove, tubing on the Little River, and the trailheads of the national park are all within easy reach.

Elijah's Cabin (209 Heaven Ln) --- A 1,100-square-foot mountain hideaway with warm wood walls, soaring ceilings, and a stone fireplace anchoring the open-concept main level. A king bedroom with ensuite sits on the main floor; upstairs, a cozy queen with its own ensuite tucks into a private corner. A queen sleeper sofa in the living room rounds things out for up to six. Outside: rocking chairs on the covered porch, a covered hot tub, and ridgeline views in every direction.

Isaiah's Cabin (215 Heaven Ln) --- A two-bedroom retreat where soaring wood ceilings meet a wall of windows framing the Tennessee ridgelines. The main level brings a gas fireplace, a sectional, and a dining nook with picture-window views. The covered deck holds rocking chairs and a hot tub tucked under the roofline --- perfect for soaking through mountain rain or crisp fall evenings. King ensuite on the main level, queen ensuite upstairs, queen sleeper sofa in the living room. Sleeps 6.

Jack's Cabin (221 Heaven Ln) --- A handsome log cabin with vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams, and oversized windows pulling in treetop views. A stone fireplace anchors the living room, and the full kitchen flows into a dining table set for six. A king suite on the main level and a queen upstairs each have their own ensuite, with a queen sleeper sofa for extra guests. Outside, a private hot tub sits under the trees alongside the cabin's own outdoor space. Sleeps 6.

Sónyah's Cabin (225 Heaven Ln) --- A two-bedroom escape with warm wood interiors, a stone fireplace, and a six-seat dining table set against expansive windows. The covered deck is the real headliner --- rocking chairs lined up for morning coffee with a valley view, and a hot tub positioned for soaking under a sky full of stars. Two queen bedrooms (each with ensuite) sit on separate levels for added privacy, and a queen sleeper sofa brings sleeping capacity to six.

Elianah's Cabin (229 Heaven Ln) --- A two-story cedar retreat with a wraparound deck catching long-range Smoky Mountain views. Inside, tongue-and-groove walls, vaulted ceilings, and warm amber tones lean fully into log-cabin soul. A gas fireplace anchors the living area, the full kitchen flows into a dining table for four, and a private hot tub sits out back. King ensuite on the main level, queen ensuite upstairs, queen sleeper sofa in the living room. Sleeps 6.

Maggie's Cabin (235 Heaven Ln) --- An all-wood retreat with extensive windows that pull the ridgeline right into the living room and a stacked-stone fireplace at the heart of the open-concept main level. A king suite on the main floor and a queen suite upstairs each have their own ensuite, with a queen sleeper sofa for the sixth guest. The wraparound deck somehow always ends up being where everyone gathers --- especially around the hot tub, positioned for sunset views over the Smokies.

Anna's Cabin (241 Heaven Ln) --- A wood-wrapped hideaway with soaring ceilings and expansive windows framing mountain views from nearly every angle. A gas fireplace anchors the living area, the full kitchen and dining table for six handle group meals, and a private hot tub on the covered deck delivers stargazing on a different level. King ensuite on the main level, queen ensuite upstairs, queen sleeper sofa in the living room. Sleeps 6.
