    This cabin is wonderful! The location is perfectly located for enjoying Townsend and especially the Little River, which is right in the back yard. Very convenient for GSMNP and Cades Cove wonderings. We have stayed in this cabin several times and it feels like home. It has everything we need and the owner is very accommodating and easy to communicate with. We feel fortunate to have found it and have already booked our next stay!

    This is a very sweet little property on the river front. We spent a LOT of time on that back porch just listening to the river and watching birds. Check out the upper parts of the trees every morning, and you'll likely see a bald eagle. It is close to everything in Townsend, which is such a lovely town. The place was spotlessly clean, the TV is a ROKU TV, which meant we could watch most of our services if you know your passwords, and there was plenty of hot water. Some know before you go items: bring a sharp knife or two, bring an extra dish towel, and if you want to keep leftovers, you should bring storage containers too. This was a five-star VRBO. So many don't live up to the pictures, and this one did. A rustic cabin on the river that is perfect for a getaway.

    The place was immaculate. The kitchen items were easy to find and organized. We loved the porch swings and watching, and listening to the River. Being older it was hard for us to get down to the water because of a steep grade in the yard. A squirrel came to relax on the back porch.

    Riverside Paradise was exactly what I had hoped for with our trip to the GSMNP! Townsend is truly the Peaceful Side of the Smokies. Easy drive to the Park entrance. The cabin was decorated beautifully, clean, & felt very private. The back porch was my favorite spot. Sitting on the porch swing, drinking tea, & watching the Little River. So relaxing. I highly recommend this VRBO.

A peaceful place to relax and hang out, 20 min drive to Cades Cove and lots of eating places, grocery store, other places within couple of miles. My 17 yr old son loved the river in the backyard and fished as much as he could while we were here. He caught many trout and even kept a few to clean and cook for dinner our last night. We will definitely be back here again!!
