Ideal location, wonderful house!
This is the second time our family has stayed at this house and Missy certainly does not disappoint! The cleanliness of the house and attention to detail on the inside and outside of the property makes this an ideal stay for any family. Missy is extremely prompt with communication and the amenities onsite made her house easily feel like our family's home. Our stay lasted one week and throughout that time every accomodation was met and expectaion easily exceeded. Thank you again, Missy, for a wonderful vacation spent with family. Kevin B.

Our host made our stay the best it could possibly be. She has set the bar so high that the house we stayed in the following week was nice, but it did not have all the personal details that Missy had. Everything was perfect. Keep up the good work, it pays in the long run..... Thanks Again Missy

This was such a beautiful home. Clean, thoughtfully decorated and supplied with everything you could ask for. The extra goodies were such a great surprise and very appreciated after a long drive. We loved the location. We biked to all the restaurants and coffee shops and the grocery store several times for forgotten items. Missy was the best host we’ve ever had! Highly recommend this home for your next mountain adventure.

Our experience was practically perfect in every way. Missy was the best host and this house was the best we have stayed in as a vacation house. Missy cares and it did feel like home. From a kitchen with everything you need to make a meal to a stocked fire place and games to boot, we were not left wanting. When we get the opportunity to come back to Townsend, there is only one place we will stay.

Perfect location to enjoy GSMNP and small town life!
The Peacefulside is a 100% accurate description of Townsend AND this wonderful home! My family of 7, kids ages 16-2, could not have had a better experience. The wonderful space Missy provides greatly contributed to that. The house is clean with everything you need and more. Missy provides so many things one usually has to purchase upon arrival or bring with them. Our family enjoyed the hot tub, cornhole, hammocks,smore's station, relaxing on the front porch for morning coffee and tea, open floor plan, games provided, book nook and Pac-Man game. It was a quick walk to the IGA for groceries. The Townsend Visitor Center is an official GSMNP bookstore, so you can stop there for park information. I highly recommend the Peacfulside Social creamery and restaurant for dinner out. Also, Townsend Mercantile Co for shopping. Our families favorite things were the River rat tubing, Tuckuleechee Caverns, and GSMNP, especially Clingman's Dome and Cade's Cove.

Wonderful home in the heart of Townsend
This is a super cute and comfortable home that was perfect for our family with twin toddlers. We appreciated the pack'n play crib provided as well as the flat, open yard on a quiet street that was perfect for busy boys who love to be outside. This is probably the best outfitted vacation home I have ever stayed in. There were a few groceries (eggs, butter), fun treats like the "s'mores station", "Tennessee treats", hot chocolate and even reading glasses in 3 strengths provided! Our group frequently said during our stay, "Missy thought of everything!" This is the first time staying "in town" and we enjoyed being able to walk to the grocery and to the fun new brewery Peaceful Side Social. It was also great to be so close to the GSMNP entrance. Missy was a wonderful host responding quickly to any questions we had. I highly recommend this home for anyone looking for a convenient and comfortable home in Townsend.
