Peaceful 3-Acre Farmhouse/Private River access/Hot Tub/Fire Pits/Romantic

If you need a peaceful vacation, look no further. The Little River Farmhouse is a family friendly, fully renovated rustic modern home on 3 acres of land located near the heart of Townsend. It resides among a small muscadine vineyard and blueberry patch along The Little River. A very large yard is available for running around, playing catch, and other outdoor games. We have a disc golf basket for the entire family to enjoy. Secluded yet convenient, the home is surrounded by nature and within a short drive, bike ride or walking distance of Townsends’ conveniences. This home has a large-covered porch with a 7-person luxury hot tub/spa and plenty of seating, 2 large fire pits (next to house and down at the river) and access to a private shore along The Little River. River access makes it perfect for tubing, fishing for trout or just lounging in the water. There is a comfortable remote working space within the home and access to high-speed internet.

In the winter months, you might find yourself sitting on the porch enjoying a peaceful view of the Mountains and the Little River. In the Spring, you will be admiring the 100 year old maples and other trees blooming. In the summer, you will spend your evenings staring at the lights of fireflies. You might not be prepared for the beauty of the fall season as the foliage drifts to the ground. Throughout the year, you will likely find yourself awwing at the bunnies foraging in the morning hours and soaking in the luxurious hot tub and spa in the evening. If you enjoy bird watching, you likely will spend hours just sitting on the front porch or staring out the large living room picture window.

You’ll be minutes away from the entrance to The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, a quick drive to Cades Cove, and access to the scenic foothills parkway with some amazing view points. You are a relaxing 30 min drive to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg where you can enjoy lots of day and nighttime activities to include Dollywood and Anakeesta. Go for a hike, bike ride, car ride or just enjoy the beautiful home on the River. Whatever you chose, you will have a vacation you never forget at The Little River Farmhouse.

For your safety there are 3 security cameras on property: #1 is on the corner of house facing down the driveway. #2 is on the carport looking back towards driveway. #3 is on back of carport looking up towards barn. There are no other camera’s on the property. Please see the Welcome Guide for more information.

Beautiful and relaxing spring break getaway
We loved our stay, it was so relaxing and just what my family needed. The land for the kids to run was something we didn’t realize we needed on a vacation. My kids had a blast! Will most certainly keep this on our favorites to return!

Had a great time. House is set up quite well for entertaining, plenty of chairs, space, and accommodations for groups. The firepit and grill were really nice touches, and the Hot tub accommodated a large group really comfortably. Will stay here again.

Our trip to the Little River Farmhouse was amazing! The house is gorgeous and in an awesome location just outside of all the excitement. I will definitely be recommending anyone I know traveling to Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge to check this place out, because I will definitely be staying again on my next visit!

Great Property and Service
We have been vacationing in the Smokies for 38 years and always stayed in cabins just north of Gatlinburg. This was the first time we stayed in Townsend, and was by far the best property and experience we've ever had. We stayed 2 weeks at the Little River Farmhouse and will always return. Our host Jennifer was extremely friendly, caring, and attentive. The property was wonderfully equipped, comfortable, clean, and quiet. Very close to food, services and the national park. Thanks so much.

Little River Farmhouse is top notch
The Little River, Farmhouse had everything you could imagine and need. Very spacious, well, equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, and a deck to die for. I recommend taking the trail down to the little river and just sitting and enjoying the quiet. We will definitely put this on our favorites list.

Very nice
This place was set up perfectly , from the coffee to the river . It was way more than we expected. The back porch and hot tub was awesome , especially when raining. A short stroll down to the river with seating and relaxing in the water. Our personal best stay in Tenn. in 30 years.

Private and peaceful
My family of 7 and I stayed from Fri-Sun and had the best time! I have 5 kiddos, ranging from 13-3 and each of them commented on how wonderful the little farmhouse was. We hung out by the river and relaxed in the hot tub. This was our first trip to Townsend, but it certainly won't be our last. Thank you Little Farmhouse for a wonderful weekend!

Little Home on The River
Our first stay was short, but guaranteed the next will be longer. Super clean and soooo comfortable. Owner responded when there was an issue. From the welcome gifts and notes to the games, hot tub and the River fire pit; the Little Farmhouse became a Little Home.
