Park Visit

Really enjoyed the view from the second floor deck overlooking Little River. Perfect for birding at tree level. Saw bald eagle, merganzer, king fisher, wood duck, to name a few. The condo was clean, comfortable, and adequately stocked. We’d stay again.

Great Location

This condo was in a great location with convenient access to Great Smoky Mountain NP and what was not to like about the stream. The layout was great and the furnishing were perfect for us. I would have given it a five star rating but there were no wash cloths, dish towels and the unit needs some minor repairs. We look forward to returning and staying here again!

Perfect location. Condo as pictured.

We had a great time at the Bigfoot festival and spending the weekend in this condo. It was hard to find it first, but when I reread the directions from the owner, it made perfect sense. The sign for Riverside village needs to be a little closer to the road so that it can be seen at night. Spotless clean, kitchen will equipped, and plenty of room for all four of us to sit and relax. Great time! If we come to Townsend again we will certainly consider staying here.

A peaceful and enjoyable stay

We very much enjoyed our stay at this property in Townsend. Condo was very clean and well maintained, and loved being so close to the park. Wendy was very helpful and responsive when we got in to town as well! We spent a lot of time out hiking the mountain trails, exploring a cave, horseback riding, wildlife and bird watching, and made a couple treks out to Pigeon Forge and Maryville for some nearby eats and entertainment. When we would come back for the evening, it was a comfortable stay and also enjoyed mornings on the balcony overlooking the river. We also loved the town of Townsend and how it really lives up to being the peaceful side of the Smokies. We made some wonderful family memories on this vacation: Highly recommend! Thank you!

Needed a Peaceful Side break

Completely my fault but I failed to check accessibility! We both have had knee replacements, one just a few months ago. So all the stairs were quite a problem for us. Loved the rocking chairs overlooking the river. Love Townsend
