Great Location

Great location with plenty of things to do. We could walk or ride our bikes to get coffee, wine and/or food. Well, the walk can be a bit but I love to walk!

Our second stay was even lovlier!

This is our second stay and we were not disappointed. Jeanine and Ric are superb hosts and make sure you are comfortable. This, the location of the condo, the cleanliness, and the quality of furnishings make it a perfect home base for your mountain activities stay. The attention to detail with fall decor and thoughtfullness to give local pointers just set it over the top. We are grateful for such a great option when visiting the area.

Perfect family time

Property was immaculate and well stocked. Location is great if you’re looking for a peaceful vacation! We had a lot of rain the week we were there which put a damper on our outdoor activities but otherwise it was perfect.

Beautiful Condo, Excellent Location

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at your home. It was very comfortable and very nicely appointed. It was quiet and had adequate parking. The location, being in Townsend, was great for access to The Smoky Mountain National Park. And there are some nice restaurants right in town.

Perfection!

This condo was a perfect base for our trip to the Smoky Mountains. After being in the hustle and bustle of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, it was nice to go back to this quiet retreat. Everything we needed was provided, and it was conveniently located for visiting the park or other towns. We would definitely stay at this condo again and recommend it to others.

Relaxation Vacation

This place checked all the boxes for our relaxing vacation. We spent alot of time at condo, pool and back patio. The kitchen had all the supplies for all of our meals. Definitely not the hustle and bustle of Pigeon Forge but that's what was perfect about it, you get all the beauty of the mountains too!!!

Great Clean Place

We stayed 6 nights here. It is about 30 Minutes from Pigeon Forge if you take Highway 321, which is the easiest route. The place was great, clean, and well stocked. The pool was perfect. They took all safety precautions, which I am a huge fan of. The Beds were very comfortable, and the condo was very clean. We will stay again, and definitely recommend this place. Be sure to go to the Chocolate Bar not far from here. Their chocolate is AMAZING!

Cozy stay just outside the National Park

The location of this condo was the deciding factor for us. Minutes outside the National Park. After long days hiking in the park we were back and showered in no time and ready to grab dinner in Townsend. Exactly what we were looking for. The condo is probably the most comfortable place we've ever stayed outside of our own home. Fully stocked with ample supplies and numerous additional extras that were very nice. We had several conversations with the owner which were beyond helpful and friendly. We recommend this condo very highly.

Cades Cove Cruising

We stayed here to take a bike trip in Cades Cove on no-vehicle Wednesday, and this location was perfect. Rick and Jeanine are wonderful hosts and their condo is perfect. Even the Keurig pods were divided into caffeinated and de-caffeinated. They didn't miss a trick. The location is quiet, secure, off the main road but with easy access to Townsend and the bike trail in town. Perfect for two couples or a small family.

Quick Trip

I am originally from Blount county and we had to make a quick trip home last minute. We scrambled to find a place that we could stay with our two college aged kids. We were blown away by this rental— from the communication and helpfulness of the owners to the charm of the rental (it’s absolutely impeccable). We have rented many times with VRBO and many times in Townsend or Sevierville and this rental is now top of our list to check each time we come home. The owners are the most helpful VRBO owners we’ve ever worked with, and they went above and beyond to make our quick weekend home go smoothly! The actual rental is a perfect place for a family, and our college aged daughter kept commenting on how she could see herself decorating her own home in the same style one day. We found that the kitchen has the actual things you use in your own home. We’ve had many rentals where the kitchen had what someone clearly didn’t use in their own kitchen and it has been difficult to cook. Not here— every last detail has been considered. As parents of two college aged kids, we always try to cook at least breakfast when we travel to help save money. The kitchen here was wonderful, had everything we reached for, and all appliances work perfectly. The coffee bar area is better than what I have at home! The area is quiet and we didn’t hear anyone or anything at night, although there were cars at most of the other places and we saw people coming and going all day long. If you’re considering renting here, don’t wait— book now, you won’t be sorry!
