“Kelly was a great host! The house felt like a model home with everything you need for a relaxing vacation. The pictures do not do justice, the house is much better in person. It is an easy drive to all the attractions. Kelly was excellent with communication and answering questions. Highly recommend!” –Marc

“Would definitely book again. Kelly’s home slept 6 of us very Comfortably. Everything was clean and just as promised on the listing. The ping pong table and games were a plus! Kelly was very responsive, never had to worry about her not responding. Again, I would recommend staying here.” –Megan

“Top notch home. Amazing in every way. Townsend is a peaceful and slow paced destination. A beautiful drive to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Community pool is steps away from your back door.

Location, Clean, Comfortable, Good Communication, Perfect!
This was one of the cleanest VRBOs I've ever stayed in, and we have been booking them for years. Communication with the Kelly is great. She responded almost immediately to any questions I sent to her. Her home is beautiful and extremely clean, and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the game room and the outdoor space with the firepit. I really can't say enough good things about this property, I could go on and on. I know when I read reviews I'm looking for clean, comfortable, good location, and good communication with the host. This property is a 10/10 for all of those things. We will definitely book this property again the next time we are in the area. Thank you Kelly!

Best Location in Townsend!
This has by far been our favorite Townsend rental ever! Kelly is so thoughtful and has put together the perfect home away from home in this quiet gated neighborhood. The game room was a huge win for my twin toddlers and the spacious living area made it easy for our large group to all hang out together. We will definitely try to stay here again!

Enjoyed Townsend Tyme Retreat
Everything about this house and the host was AMAZING! The home was very accurate to online listing. Kelly’s digital guidebook was very informative. From the game room to the backyard exploring my family and I enjoyed our stay here. If we ever decide to visit TN again we would 100% come back to this house.

About the host

Hosted by Kelly

Host profile image
👋 Hello and welcome to our home! I'm Kelly, your host, and I'm delighted that you're considering staying with us.

👨‍👩‍👦‍👦 I'm a proud wife of 28 years and a mom to two wonderful boys who've flown the nest. My role as a nurturer extends beyond my home as well; I've been a dedicated middle and high school teacher for 25 years. Education is my calling, and I absolutely love shaping the minds of future generations.

🐶 Outside of work, you'll likely find me spending quality time with my family and my adorable dachshunds, Sophie and Phoebe. They bring a lot of joy and a touch of mischief into our lives!

🏡 As for hosting, my aim is to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I take immense pride in our listings and go the extra mile to ensure they're clean, cozy, and full of character. It's incredibly important to me that you leave with wonderful memories that last a lifetime.

🍀 Whether you're here for adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, I'm here to make your stay memorable. Looking forward to hosting you soon!

Why they chose this property

As I have planned this townhouse and its amenities, I always keep in mind what I would want and appreciate as a guest.  It is my goal that you have a five star experience at Townsend Tyme Retreat.  If there is anything I can do to ensure that outcome, please reach out to me during your stay.  The beautiful Smoky Mountains, the quaint town of Townsend, as well as all the fun of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg are sure to keep you entertained, but I hope you find Townsend Tyme Retreat a wonderful oasis to return to each day.  

What makes this property unique

Townshend has a lot to do for the whole family and a great way to avoid the hustle and bustle of Pigeon Forge.  It offers great restaurants, a less crowded entrance to the Smoky Mountains, river rafting, and the awesome Tuckaleechee Caverns.  A couple favorites of mine are biking on the river trail that is next to our property or biking the Cades Cove loop (Smoky Mountain E-Bikes is an excellent rental locations that also rents traditional bikes) and river tubing (River Rat is open from Memorial Day to Labor Day).
