We absolutely loved our stay at this cozy condo in the Smoky Mountains! The place was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing trip. Sitting on the balcony overlooking the river was so peaceful—hearing the water flow by made every morning and evening feel extra special.The location was perfect—tucked away enough to enjoy some quiet time, but still close to all the fun in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The kitchen was well-stocked, the beds were super comfy, and the space had all the thoughtful touches that made it feel like home.This condo truly was a perfect escape. We can’t wait to come back and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to unwind by the river in the Smokies!

The condo was decorated really cute and was very clean. We loved the river running at the back of the property. We enjoyed watching the kids float by on inner tubes. We would love to stay at the property again if we are in the area.

Relax by the River

Great location to see the Smokies. Lots of good eating choices in Townsend and Wears Valley. Convenient to Cades Cove, Pigeon Forge, and Gatlinburg. Close to places we like to hike. A couple of minor issues: we had to wash our towels and wash cloths every night since we only had one per. We only had partial toilet paper rolls which ended up not being a problem but concerning. The one time we turned on the TV, there was not enough space to run the movie we were trying to watch. This was our second stay here, and we would probably stay again.

The Goldilocks place to stay

Perfect condo - in town on pavement, plenty of level parking, walk to everything, beside the river. Condo was clean, everything worked well, rooms good size and comfortable. Loved hearing the river at night. Great place to stay for cycling trip - easy access to all the routes. There are stairs to get in and to bedrooms. We didn’t care but some might. Hope to stay here again next time.

Excellent place to stay!

We had a wonderful time at this place. It was immaculately clean, had plenty of space and was very tastefully decorated. We loved being so close to the stream and there were even binoculars which we could use to look out at the birds. The place was quite private with 2 separate porches looking out over the stream. We would definitely recommend it and are looking forward to returning.

Peaceful Stay

This condo is very comfortable, clean, well stocked and it’s an easy place to relax. The river view from the balconies is especially nice. We also like that it’s a short walk to the grocery store and to Peaceful Side Social, a fun and yummy eatery! It’s in a quiet area and we felt safe. Don’t hesitate to book :)

Grandparents dream trip!

We stayed in your lovely condo with our three grandchildren ages 9,7 & 5. This was absolutely my Granny dream come true. We spent many days in the creek and on the bank roasting hotdogs and marshmellows. We saw racoons, merganzers, river otter, geese, squirrels and numerous birds (and a couple water snakes...harmless) The condo fit our needs perfectly and the second and third floor balconies made us feel like we were in a tree house. Breakfast, pizza, storytime and on a rainy day painting and coloring all on the balcony. All three of my grandchildren wanted to know why we can't just live there all the time! Thank you for sharing your home. Such a quiet and beautiful spot!

Downs summer vacation 2024

The condo was perfect for our family. Two teenagers, an eight year old and my husband and me. The location was close to convenience store and restaurants as well as local attractions. The creek was easily accessible for the kids and the area well maintained. We had rabbits, ducks, squirrels, and a variety of birds on the grounds. The Cades Cove loop was full of wildlife and nature and history that we enjoy!!! The condo was clean and very well stocked with anything we needed and we were close enough to enjoy Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge without being forced to stay in the crowds unless we chose. Townsend is a perfect location to act as bade for a Smokey Mountain vacation!!! Will definitely stay here again!

Peaceful Side is Right!

We introduced a family member to the Smokies and so glad we chose to stay in Townsend! She loved visiting us at the condo and the location was perfect. The condo was as advertised, nicely appointed and clean. We love the cabin look! The stairs weren't bad but I wouldn't want to do them all the time. Host was excellent.

We had a wonderful time in Townsend. We had a wonderful time at this condominium, listening to the babbling stream beside it. Everything that was dated for comfortable stay was there and John was a very attentive coast. If you’re looking for something special in town and I would suggest this.
