At Haven, we pride ourselves on our guests’ experience. We understand that having a clean and sanitized space is part of that experience. We want to notify all guests that in addition to the extensive cleaning standards we already follow, we have recently doubled down on disinfecting and sanitizing our homes so that our guests can rest assured the home they stay at for their vacation is as safe as possible. Haven’s guests can sleep easy knowing that we take safety issues seriously and that we are responding to the current challenges in a way that allows you to relax and enjoy your stay with us, your friends and family.

Guests have access to the entire condo!

We are available if you need us!

The condo is located in Townsend, a quaint town in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains. Nearby you can float the Little Pigeon River in the summer (River Rats 3.3mi), or visit the local favorite drive-in Burger Master (3.3 mi) for a post-hike treat. There is a nearby market (.7mi), or you can take the pedestrian walking path and bike or walk to the delicious Apple Valley Mountain Village & Café (1.1mi), just 5 minutes down the road. Townsend is the doorway to the beautiful Smoky Mountains where numerous hikes, fun swimming holes, or scenic picnic spots await you. Visit Cades Cove (17mi) for beautiful scenic views from your car and a picnic area too. Hiking options are numerous, and we suggest doing a little research, but a few well-loved choices include The Chimney tops, Laurel Falls, Abram Falls, and Alum Cave.

In addition to the beautiful mountains, there is also plenty to do in nearby Pigeon Forge (19 mi), and Gatlinburg (24mi). For fun activities, try Dollywood or Dolly Splash Country, Dixie Stampede, any of the Ripley's locations (our favorite is the aquarium), mini golf, and so much more! For good eats, there are numerous restaurants in both locations. A few of our favorites include the Pancake Pantry, Smoky Mountain Brewery, Local Goat, or for fine dining options Foothills Milling Company or the Walnut Kitchen.

We recommend having a vehicle on hand!

- For your convenience we supply you with a limited starter kit of toilet paper, soap, paper towels, trash bags, and dishwasher detergent. There are several shops you can visit nearby to purchase supplies for the duration of your stay.

- Due to our close proximity to the National Park, we have a large population of insects, including ladybugs, house flies, stink bugs, millipedes, carpenter bees, and wasps. Although all of our properties are sprayed regularly by a professional pest control company, the city and park areas are not. During various times of the year, these insects may find their way into the property. By booking, you understand that is a possibility during your stay and understand that there will be no refunds related to bugs getting into the property. We will be happy to work with you to get pest control back out if necessary.

Very enjoyable condo
We stayed a few days after a bbq competition that we competed in over the weekend in Maryville. The location was very nice and neighbors that live there were extremely nice and helpful. We've always stayed in either Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg and this was the first time in Townsend. This area is more our style! More peaceful and less congested and not that far away from Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg. We'll definitely be back

Quick weekend stay
Me and a friend rented this place for a weekend stay to hike with a group. We didn’t use the kitchen but it seemed well stocked. The condo was clean and shampoo/conditioner was provided. There is only one soap per bathroom so you have to move it from the shower to the sink. Beds were a little hard but doable for a short stay. Overall, I would stay here again. I really liked that the community was gated.

Excellent vacation
This is our second time renting this unit. Wonderful location (close to Cades Coves), clean, and quiet neighborhood. Like a home away from home . We had no communication with Property Manager but this survey makes you enter a rating.
