Location is the best part. Hearing the babble of the river and wildlife was great. It is located walking distance to Peaceful Side Social and IGA. Company Distilling and entrance to GSMNP are minutes away by car. Place was mostly clean and well appointed inside. Needs improvement: Infestation of carpenter bees, which were buzzing around by the dozens and raining sawdust on us (and all the furniture) anytime we were on the balcony.

About the host

Host profile image
I grew up in Townsend, I have lived here most of my life, and I don't take it granted. I know our slow, small, town is a charmed life. Come try a week with us we will show you. We know where the best restaurants are, and we know all the shortcuts! There are tons of things to do here, white water rafting, tubing, swimming, fishing, snow skiing, hiking, antiquing, just driving around in the Smoky something for everyone.

Why they chose this property

This a really convenient, quiet and clean property in a gorgeous setting, there is not a better way to start the day than watching the river drift by with your morning coffee.
