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.

We are a family of 4 who love adventure and enjoy sharing some of our favorite places with you!

Parker is an award-winning mortgage loan originator specializing in helping families start their short-term rental portfolios, while Oz is a "retired" Electronic Engineer, who now spends his days tirelessly working on each of our properties to keep them in great condition! Our daughter Taliesin who is headed to college has been involved in design and decor and our son Zolin who is still in high school just might be the one to answer your message or inquiry. We are emotionally attached to each of our properties (even though we aren't supposed to be lol) and we truly hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
