They have decided to take a break from the cabin rental business, and their cabins have become part of the newly formed Tremont Outdoor Resort.  As in the past, this will continue to be a family-run operation. 

Please allow me to introduce myself as the new owner.  My name is Wilson Reynolds, and I am an avid outdoorsman.  I’ve been fortunate enough to spend the last 35+ years hunting, fishing, and guiding in the great outdoors from Virginia to Alaska.  Naturally, this also put me in a great position to explore an interest in nature photography, which has blossomed into a professional career.  My life’s dream has been to be able to share and inspire an interest in the outdoors with others.  I now consider myself blessed to be able to live part of that dream by providing accommodations and teaching nature photography to those who are visiting the Great Smoky Mountains. 

I’ve been in the outdoor resort industry for 28 years, including owning and operating family resorts in Rustburg and Williamsburg, Virginia; Chestertown, Maryland; Jackson Hole and Cody, Wyoming.  In addition to that, I own and operate a successful resort property management company in Ocean City, Maryland.  As you can see, I have way too much experience in the hospitality business, but I’ll do my best to use that experience to make your stay with us as enjoyable and memorable as possible.

Tremont Outdoor Resort, our main facility, is located one mile from the cabins.  Should you decide to book a future reservation with us, this is where you will check-in and have access (if you choose) to an Olympic-size outdoor pool, game room, and general store, as well as access to the Little River.  Improvements and upgrades have been made to the cabins, including the addition of wireless hi-speed internet, but the cozy national park atmosphere has been preserved at your front porch.

We hope you’ll consider our resort as part of any future mountain retreat you may be planning.   For reservations, please call 800-448-6373. My staff and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

At Carnes’ Log Cabins, you’ll enjoy privacy, comfort, and convenience in a secluded, wooded setting. Our cabins are nestled in a small mountain hollow in the heart of Townsend, Tennessee, the most laid-back and relaxing community in the Great Smoky Mountains. Just one mile from your cabin door lies the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. You’ll enjoy a quiet setting with beautiful scenery and plenty of things to do.

All of our cabins are newly constructed and feature modern conveniences with rustic charm. We can provide you with a Smoky Mountain family vacation, a romantic honeymoon, or a perfect mountain getaway for some rest and relaxation. From the comfort of your rocking chairs on the front porch to your own private hot tub, your vacation enjoyment is our pleasure.
