Welcome to your own Smoky Mountain retreat! Owl’s Hoot Chalet is a contemporary western cedar home with an all-glass prow front on 6 acres, including a 5-acre meadow, part of Rich Mountain, and an exclusive 1-acre dog walk area.

Owl’s Hoot is a comfortable, well-appointed home…not another cookie-cutter, look-alike, strip-down rental unit with black bear décor made in China. It is tastefully decorated with local works of art, antiques, comfortable furnishings, and thoughtful amenities for the discerning traveler. Our unique décor reflects the natural beauty and serenity of the mountain setting and the Smoky blue namesake. Our guests are surprised to find the many extras that make Owl’s Hoot Chalet truly feel like a home away from home.

The main level offers a spacious, open kitchen/living/dining room combination with cathedral ceiling, fireplace (wood provided), and massive windows. The kitchen was remodeled in 2022 with custom blue cabinets, premium Vicostone quartz countertops, and new lighting. The living room features comfy NEW leather recliner sofa, recliner loveseat, and tables. An LCD smart TV with Roku, satelite TV, and DVD will entertain you after a day of adventure.

Two charming bedrooms (one queen + 2 twins), a full bath with skylight and tub/shower, and new (2023) washer/dryer round out the main level.

Upstairs, the open-loft master bedroom features a queen sleigh bed, plus a unique circa-1800s sleigh daybed, with new bedding and décor added in 2023. A luxurious spa bath is adjacent, with a skylight, 2-person/8-jet jacuzzi, vanity, and shower - remodeled and redecorated in 2023!

All beds have comfortable memory foam mattresses and are encased in bedbug and allergen protective covers for a refreshing night's sleep.

Let your pets roam on the spacious, gated wrap-around deck or in the meadow. Enjoy a glass of wine in the private pavilion. Listen for the owls late at night. The 6 acres of woods, meadow, and creek are the ideal playground for children and pets!

Owl’s Hoot Chalet is located in a quiet mountain hollow near the center of Townsend, just 3 miles from the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and within 30 miles of Knoxville, Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, and Sevierville, TN. Yet guests often remark about its private, secluded setting. Convenient + serene = ideal!
