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. ##### Kimberly S.
