Welcome to the peaceful side of the Smokies!

Somewhere along the Tuckaleechee Cove, in southeastern Appalachia, a peaceful refuge, otherwise known as Townsend, Tennessee or “The Peaceful Side of the Smokies” emerges in rustic subtlety. Rich in history, and archaeologically dating back to 2000 B.C., this “peaceful valley” as the Cherokees donned it long ago, is the perfect place to come for uninterrupted relaxation. Townsend also offers visitors an array of family-fun excursions and activities, whether you prefer something inside or outside.
