Townsend
5/5 Great place to stay away from distractions like TV and all the touristy areas like Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The sound of the river was very soothing and we even saw herons two days. The kitchette was adequate to fix breakfast each morning and we cooked simple dinnners two nights. The refrigerator is small so you can’t buy groceries for a week. Wendy talked us through checkin and could adjust the temperature remotely

Clean and great location!
5/5 Lindsey checked us in as Wendy was away on a family emergency. She made sure we had everything we needed including a drip coffee maker instead of a Keurig as we brought our own fresh ground coffee. And to add to it there were fresh cut flowers in the kitchen area and on the outdoor patio table outside our door. Loved that! We did enjoy our stay along the river drinking our coffee and eating some meals on the patio table. On the beautiful sunny days, we sat out along the river and read. They have a book exchange box on the porch as well! Also had some entertainment as a lady played her banjo while we were relaxing after a day of driving the parkway.We did lots of hiking as well in the Smoky's. So was nice to come back to room for a nice hot shower! Great water pressure!As others have stated, the walls are thin. Even though the listing says no children, there was a family with children above us. We could even hear the dad tell his son to be quiet as we were below them. lol But all in all peaceful except right before bedtime. Thank you, Wendy and Lindsey, for helping us to have a great time in the Smoky's! We will definitely consider coming back.

Townsend TN
5/5 Lovely log cabin very close to the Little River. We could sit on the porch and watch the herons. unfortunately it was cold during our visit so we couldn't spend as much time on the porch. Loved the little library on the porch and exchanged a book I had finished on our trip. I loved the quietness of the area. So glad we didn't stay in Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge.
Weekend wedding
5/5 We drove to the Strawberry Patch Inn after work not expecting much more than a play to sleep before the wedding the next day and to our surprise, we found a nice, clean, quite and relaxing spot that we certainly would recommend to anyone!

Convenient location
5/5 The location was great…close to amenities and the entrance to the national park. Plenty of places to eat in Townsend, plus a grocery store. The apartment is part of an old cabin from the 1800’s, which was great but it was really easy to hear the people in the apartment above us. We were lucky they were on the quiet side. The creek side location made it feel quite peaceful even though it is located right off a 4 lane road.
