"Property was misrepresented do not go by the pictures only a couple were of the actual condo. My master bedroom at home is bigger than this entire condo. Took 2 hours of phone calls to several different numbers to get the real code to get in. Gave me several wrong codes not fun to deal with after a 9 hour drive at midnight. Don’t turn the jets on the hot tub unless you want a migraine from the screeching sound of the pumps getting ready to implode. Plenty of better places to stay in the area. ...

Tremont Lodge & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The location is awesome! You’re close to coffee shops, restaurants, and a bike trail for miles with adorable decorated tunnels and a park for littles to play. The lodge is beautiful but is on the older side, so a few things needed upgrading, but the place is very clean. The breakfast is a basic continental breakfast, but it’s included! We saw an outdoor screen for outside movies but never saw anything about movies playing, saw a sign for a game room but never saw it, there was a pickleball court but couldn’t find the equipment. So, I’m not sure about some of the amenities. You don’t get daily towels or daily room service, but when you did actually see someone, they were helpful in getting the things you needed. It was super chill and quiet the beginning of the week but then around Thursday/Friday it was like bikers came in from all over and there was no parking near our building, but we made it work. All in all, we loved the location and will probably be back next fall break. It’s probably the nicest place in Townsend! Thank you so much!"

The Parkman - Great Smoky Mountains

10/10 Excellent

"Very quiet and old school hotel. Townsend is where we stay when we ride down to eastern Tennessee. Close enough to everything but far enough away from the tourist areas. The only complaint I have of my room was there wasn’t a fridge or microwave. But the bed was comfortable and the view was great. The bathroom was small and the shower is tiny. But it was overall a very nice hotel."

Townsend Gateway Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We had a suite with 2 bedrooms and a living room. It was easy to check in and conveniently located close to Cades Cove. Riverside Restaurant was close by as well and had an excellent breakfast. We will definitely come back! Thank you!"

Townsend River Breeze Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Got there and checked it and everything went smooth. Got a key yes a real key and it inside was clean and bed was very comfortable . Same for bathroom. There was a balcony over looking the foothills too. Beautiful area. Will be back!"

Creekside 2 Bedroom Cabin by RedAwning

10/10 Excellent

"This place was perfect for our trip. It’s located close to everything the area has to offer. We didn’t have more than a 45 minute drive to get to anything. The place is simple, in a good way. It has everything you need and nothing you don’t. The best part is the back deck over the mountain creek. It was very relaxing to sit out there and listen to the water. We spent most of our time at the cabin enjoying that. The hot tub on the deck was a nice bonus as well. The area is absolutely beautiful and there’s a grocery store and some restaurants 6 minutes away. I would definitely stay there again and would recommend to anyone who wanted to spend time around the Smoky Mountains national park area."
