Spring Break

The property at Country manor is beautiful. We stayed 3 nights during our spring break in the upper threshold suite. Room was large with a great view of the property. Not completely private but still worth the stay.

Beautiful retreat is calming respite in bustling location.

The building was amazing! Clean room with great views. Despite the proximity to all the tourism a person could ever ask for (and more), the property will make you feel as though you are in a remote location far from the calamity.

Outstanding location, some issues with suite

The location of the property is outstanding, especially if quiet and private is what you are looking for. Very peaceful and picturesque. The only reason I’m not giving this a higher overall rating, is an issue with red wasps in our suite. To be totally transparent, the property owner offered a refund and assistance in finding somewhere else when we brought the problem up. We considered that possibility, but decided against it since we didn’t want to spend one of our four days searching for and relocating to a different location. In retrospect, we probably should have, as my husband got stung in the middle of the night on our last night by a wasp that had gotten into his covers. We killed at least a half a dozen red wasps in our room and more in the second bedroom. The provided wasp spray, but the smell and the prospect of it getting all over the bed and our things made me reluctant to use it, instead opting to kill the wasps with a fly swatter instead. They had the property sprayed for lady bugs while we were there, and I hoped that would help, but it didn’t seem to affect the wasps. We didn’t have an issue with the lady bugs, as it’s that time of year, but the wasp problem was pretty serious.

Beautiful views

The location was amazing! I think the listing wasn’t clear that one of the bedrooms was totally separated from the other and the bathroom. Having to go out into the hall and through 3 doors in the middle of the night was a bit challenging but still a great place to stay.

Enjoyed the location, very quiet and peaceful. May not recommend it to someone who doesn’t enjoy being in the country. The road into and out was pretty rough. Being a country girl wasn’t too rough for me.

We fell in love with this place. Real convenient to town and Cades Cove. My grandson loved riding the horse and feeding them. Can’t wait to come back! Could use a new mattress is my only complaint.

We actually did not spend much time at your house - only to sleep and shower. We did, however, enjoy sitting on the balcony in the mornings viewing and listening to nature. One critique: the fitted sheet on the bed was too small and kept coming off on the corners throughout the night. Nice property! Thank you.

Amazing stay in Townsend

If you're looking for a very quiet place within a few miles of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, this is it. Two bedrooms, a small kitchen, a large bathroom, with a shower & jacuzzi tub, strong wifi, etc. It's everything you want and the views from the master bedroom and porch are just stunning. A+++

Adequate Lodging - as advertised

The location was near where we wanted to stay. Good proximity to Smokey Mountain National Park. Room was as advertised and appropriately priced. There was an issue with the temperature control with cold air blasting leaving us very cold- AC system could be evaluated to add a return air in the upstairs. Nice vistas.

Good location if you just need a place to stay!

The property was beautiful, and having the horses onsite and mountains in the background was a treat. The room itself was just okay, definitely a B&B without the breakfast. The upper manor suite is only one king bed, the 2nd bedroom listed in the details is actually an entirely separate room, with just a bed that does not connect to the suite. The upstairs suite is shared with another bedroom for rent, so you won’t have the privacy of the upstairs to yourself. Wifi is very slow, and rugs could use a good cleaning. There were stains on the couch and comforter, but sheets were clean. Electric fireplace in room does not work. Patio has a great view, however there’s an active hornets nest! Host was very kind, but never in office each time we knocked (which was daily and between office hours)
