Missy was very welcoming. The washer gave me a little trouble but Missy responded quickly. The batteries for the remote lights were not working and I was unable to start the dishwasher. The stones at the entrance to the front porch were somewhat loose and we had to be careful were we stepped. The house was clean and decorated very nicely. Also the house supplied with almost everything one would find at home.

We got there after dark. All the lights were on which was very welcoming. The house is nicely furnished with cute decor. Just about anything you may need is provided. The location is good. The entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains is just down the road, as is the road through Wears Valley which takes you to Pigeon Forge. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend it.

Sweetest home for the perfect stay in the quiet side of the Smokies

My teen daughter, husband, and I stayed at this lovely, absolutely charming home and loved every second of our stay. The home wraps you cottage beauty as soon as you walk in the door. You feel simultaneously at home and enchanted. Missy is the hands down the kindest host we have ever had and went out of her way to make us feel at home. She thought of everything and surprised us with a snores station, coffee bar and even a bottle of local wine. The home sits right at the greenway which was perfect for riding our bikes. Close to everything Townsend. We didn’t want to leave and we will be back! Thank you, Missy!

We still loved staying here. The house is super clean and we love the location of it. The grass needed cut again but this time of year with all the rain, I know that it can be difficult to keep up with it. We will stay here again for sure.

Super clean, Cozy atmosphere

This is an excellent place if you’re looking for something quite and cozy with and atmosphere and host that makes you feel like you’re at your own home. Super clean, great location, and Missy has thought of everything and more that you could want or need and has it there for you when you arrive. She is quick to respond to any questions you may have before or during your visit. This is our first experience with vrbo or anything of this sort other than a hotel, and she has definitely set the bar high. We enjoyed our stay with friends and our fur baby very much and would not hesitate to book here again when in the area!
