About this property

The Octagon Suite at the Country Manor Inn

The Octagon Suite is actually more of a private suite than an apartment in the Country Manor Inn. It is designed for 2 adults but could accommodate one or two small children as well. It is well appointed with plenty of amenities and it overlooks our 52 acre private farm-style estate with rolling hills, grazing horses and private fishing.

This suite has a fully-equipped kitchen for preparing your own breakfast (or dinner), plus a large dining table for 6, a private bathroom, a seating area with sofa and 2 lounge chairs for visiting, reading or watching TV. There is free WiFi service, plus a private deck with picnic table, barbecue grill and a 4-person hot tub on the deck.

We provide all the dishes, pots and pans, sheets and linens, soaps and paper towels, coffee, filters, cream and sugar.

Guests have access to our private picnic area, our private fishing pond with a small boat, our hiking trails and our fire ring for roasting marshmallows in the evening.

If you fall in love with the suite and the setting, remember that we do have private elopement and destination wedding packages.

Small Family Reunion

We have stayed at the Octagon Suite a number of times. It's a great suite for a couple with beautiful views. The hot tub is great after a day of hiking. It's always a pleasure working with the owners April, Jeff, and Nicole.

Just perfect!

We loved Country Manor Acres and the Octagon Suite. It is easy to get to, off the beaten track, and has everything we needed for a very reasonable cost. Owners are very responsive and personable. We enjoy staying near Townsend on the “quiet side”.

Incredible view

We absolutely loved our stay, the views were spectacular! It'd made for and incredible office experience as my partner and I worked remote during the day, and the close proximity to the smokies allowed us to explore in the afternoons and evenings. We even got to do a horse trail ride around the property one morning, it was a blast! The hosts were incredibly accomodating and promptly answered our questions. We highly recommend Country Manor Acres.

Worth it!

Beautiful setting, quiet home overlooking the Smokies. Set in the noncommercialized town of Townsend with quick access to the National Park. The suite had its own entrance, access to the deck with hot tub just for this suite, plenty of towels. Easy check-in. The facilities had access to host weddings and horseback riding on their acreage, if this is something you need. Our last day the area was inundated with rain (4inches) yet we enjoyed listening to the rain on the tin roof and sitting on the veranda watching the mist and rain on the hills while listening to the rolling thunder. Unfortunately the rain from the mountains draining down tore up their access road a bit. My only criticism is that the room needs a deeper clean (blinds, ceiling fan, under the bed). Would stay here again!

2nd Stay a Success

We returned for another weekend anniversary getaway. It has rustic charm and we love the large, floor to ceiling windows that let the morning light in and show off the gorgeous mountains and secluded landscape. Their horses, chickens, and barn cat are a pleasure to pass by and see. There was plenty to do in Townsend, and we came back in the evening and watched the sun set and the stars appear from the hot tub. Thank you Mrs. April for sharing your special place with travelers.

Beautiful location

My husband and I have stayed at this property previously and found that the location excellent for hiking in the park and visiting Dollywood. Location is close to Cades Cove.The room is a good size with an excellent view. Check in is easy with the owner leaving instructions near the office, taped on to the door of the room. The only negative is the cleanliness of the room. Very dusty under things. Needs a deep clean for sure.

Love this place!

This was the third time that we have stayed at Country Manor, and it was as delightful as always. The suite is always very clean and comfortable. The view from the suite is amazing and the property is so peaceful. It's a great place to sit on the deck and relax while enjoying the view. We enjoyed petting the horses, the chickens and the cat. The owners are very friendly and personable and always make us feel at home there. We will be staying there again the next time we head to the Smokies.
