Beautiful property nestled in nature. The hospitality was great as was our cabin.

Perfect place to rest and...
Positives:
Very friendly staff and quiet location in a woodsy setting. Made to order breakfast was available in two locations and were very filling with good coffee. Only drawback was the 8AM start for the breakfast. Our room was one of the shared wall duplex units but for the most part people were very quiet. Rooms were large and well equipped. We had plenty of towels and housekeeping and supplies were available on request. A nice welcome basket was left for our arrival. There is a general store along with the restaurants and I recommend giving their fried apple pie a try. Great location for getting to Cades Cove.
Negatives:
I was glad we arrived in the daylight as after dark it's a bit harder to see with the low light levels around the units. All of Townsend was harder for us to get around after dark. The roads are not well-lit and the markings on the roads are very poor.

We stayed in a villa with a hot tub. It was a lovely spacious apartment in a great location. We loved the hot tub and the balcony. It was very close to Cades Coves and the GSMNP. The onsite Dancing Bear restaurant was exceptional! All of the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Came for a day's bike ride around Cade's Cove on automobile free Wednesday, and it was wonderful. Our cabin had full kitchen facilities so we had dinner in each evening. The breakfasts at the Dancing Bean cafe (coffee's, muffins, bacon-egg-cheese sandwiches) were filling and complementary. The lodge is literally minutes away from the Great Smoky Mountains NP. Townsend TN is a far cry from Gatlinburg, the other gateway to the Smokies which I found to be too crowded. I can't wait to return to Townsend and the Dancing Bear Lodge. BTW, on our first night we crossed paths with a black bear as he ambled (not danced) across the road we were using to head back to our cabin. On our Cade's Cove bike trip we encountered 6 more black bears! Amazing!
Loved this place....

Townsend is a peaceful location in the Smokies removed from the hub bub of the touristy areas. The Appalachian Bistro has delicious farm to fork meals and great cocktails.

Wonderful lodge, beautifully located in the forest. Breakfast and dinner available in two restaurants and a coffee shop. Although close to the highway, you do not hear the sound of the traffic
Negatives:
If you want to do activities like rafting or go to Gatlinburg, it is a bit far.
