I stayed here over the weekend in early June (peak season?) - paid $82.00 per night. I picked it because of the high rating on Trip Advisor - which I honestly don't get.... I have NO complaints. I do wonder if it is a bit pricy compared to the competition.... This is an old drive up motel with under 20... More

My wife and I were planning to begin our Smoky Mtn. vacation on Monday, May 27th, with a 3-night stay in Gatlinburg. But we decided at the last minute to leave out on the 26th and stay in Townsend so we would be near Cades Cove. I was met at the office by a delightful lady who checked us in... More

My wife & I stayed at one of the rooms in the Inn for four nights. The room was nicely remodeled with plenty of room for the two of us and all of our stuff. We really liked having a refrigerator and microwave so we could heat up the food we brought with us (really helps keep costs down). The... More

We stayed in one of the cabins. It was extremely clean and very quiet. Can't beat the location. It's a bit of drive to Gatlinburg, but we'd rather not be near that craziness. The access to Cade's Cove and the road to Clingman's dome and Cherokee is great. The kitchenette is nice, but don't plan on making any sort of... More

When my sister and I attend the ChristyFest in Townsend, the Gateway Inn is our go to place to stay. It is always so clean, the beds comfortable, the rooms quite and the snacks a treat. The Inn is located close to Cades Cove and there are several excellent restaurants nearby. What amazes us is our inability to hear the... More

This motel was convenient to the Cades Cove area of the Smoky Mountains National Park. It was clean and comfortable with several restaurants nearby. A basket of snacks and coffee packets was refreshed each day.

My husband and I stayed in this family run inn on May 17th. Rooms were clean and sheets were soft. The rockers on the front were a nice touch. Even being close to the highway it was quite at night. What really made the place great was the lady who worked there. She was friendly and helpful and made us... More

My husband and I stayed 2 nights recently with our dog in Cottage #1. Although this is an older motel, the cottage was recently remodeled with hardwood floors and the works. The cottage was supremely clean and the property is well maintained. We were treated to a snack basket upon arrival which was restocked each day. The only thing to... More

This is a great family owned small motel in beautiful Townsend. So close to the Smokies and Gatlinburg but no rat race, traffic or crowds. We love the rockers by our door and the new fire pit. Will be back again next year for sure.
