Super clean, Cozy atmosphere

This is an excellent place if you’re looking for something quite and cozy with and atmosphere and host that makes you feel like you’re at your own home. Super clean, great location, and Missy has thought of everything and more that you could want or need and has it there for you when you arrive. She is quick to respond to any questions you may have before or during your visit. This is our first experience with vrbo or anything of this sort other than a hotel, and she has definitely set the bar high. We enjoyed our stay with friends and our fur baby very much and would not hesitate to book here again when in the area!

Best Get-a-Way Accommodations and Host

Our 2nd Stay at Biketrail Bungalow! Missy is a gracious Host and it shows, she makes her place very welcoming for her guests. Very clean, well stocked, tastefully decorated, extra touches making you feel special. We love the covered Front porch, taking the time to sit a spell and relax! Great location. It's the "Peaceful Side of the Mountain" that brought us to this destination and finding the best place to stay and perfect host is why we are repeat guests.

Loved the location

We loved the location of this property - close to amenities in Townsend and also the GSMNP. The house was extremely clean and had all kinds of household items to make our stay comfortable. And Missy was very sweet to communicate with. We wish the grass had been cut for our 2 little dogs, but Missy explained the extenuating circumstances which I completely understand and appreciate. We plan to return in the future. Thank you.

Peaceful Getaway

This property lacked nothing! It’s cozy, convenient and esp nice the bike/walking trail is a few steps away. The main road is near but noise was not a problem and it was quiet for sleeping. The carport is handy and only a couple of steps into the house. The porch and backyard are great. The beds are super comfy and the kitchen was stocked! I’ve never had anyone leave eggs and butter :) Missy was very kind and accommodating - don’t hesitate to book with her!

Bike Bash perfect stay!

We were in Townsend for the Dancing Bear Bike Bash and this was the perfect location to stay - we were able to ride our bikes from the house directly on the bike path to everything in Townsend. I thought it might be noisy being close to the main road but it was not. Everything was thought about in this home and it was a wonderful stay and I would highly recommend this home to stay in for a visit in Townsend. It is very close to everything - the best thing to do is bring your bike and explore the town from this house!

Cozy Cottage

Everything here was homey and comfortable. My mattress was excellent, the bedding soft and cozy, and the blankets abundant. The couch in the living room fully reclines, which everyone was very excited about when we snuggled up for a movie night, and the kitchen table was perfect for our tabletop games. The carport access makes loading/unloading in the rain a breeze. Missy was very attentative and always quick to respond to any inquiries I had. The house being nicely stocked with coffee, creamer, and some breakfast basics really helped us get our vacation off to an easy start and was much appreciated. I loved the location and being basically right across the street from several restaurants, The Chocolate B'ar (a must for delicious local chocolate), and River Rat tubing. It's incredibly convenient. I have already been recommending it to other family members and would love to be a guest again in the future.
