Newly updated appliances ensure that mealtime is a breeze, while the plush king bed promises a restful night's sleep.

Enjoy a delicious barbecue on the charcoal grill or curl up on the deck with a good book. Stay connected with high-speed Xfinity wifi (200mpbs) and cable, or simply unplug and embrace the peace and quiet.

Townsend is a little gem hidden in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains and is known as "the peaceful side of the Smokies". This little cabin is located in a gated retreat owned by us! Our retreat consists of 4 vacation rentals plus our primary home on 7 riverfront acres. Townsend has two famous swinging bridges that cross The Little River, one of which connects directly to our property, which means you can walk right across into the heart of town! Excellent food, local craft beer, chocolate, pancakes, and art all within a short distance!! Trout fishing and tubing the river are extremely popular, and we are just 2 mi. from the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and only 12 mi from the famous Cades Cove where you can get a glimpse of history and may catch some really neat wildlife while you're at it. Of course, if you wake up early enough, you may easily see an eagle or two fishing the river from the house! If everything that Townsend has to offer isn't quite enough to please everyone, we are just an easy 30 minute drive to Pigeon Forge and 45 min. to Gatlinburg with endless family entertainment.

To ensure a peaceful and enjoyable stay for all guests, parties are strictly prohibited on the property. However, we welcome friends/family-style gatherings and get-togethers, as long as they are conducted in a respectful and considerate manner. We kindly ask that you refrain from any rowdy behavior or excessive noise that may disturb the tranquility of the surroundings or disrupt the enjoyment of other guests.

For the comfort of all our guests, we do not allow pets on the property. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but hope you understand our commitment to providing a clean and allergen-free environment for everyone to enjoy.

To make a reservation, the minimum booking age is 24 years old.
