    The room was nice. It was plenty big enough for our family. The Inn was in a great location to be able to get to all the adventures we wanted to do while there.

    Old cracked dinner ware and cups. Fireplace not operating properly. Not worth the rate they charge. Beds were excellent.

    The management of Dancing Bear has provided such amazing hospitality. The “hiking” gift basket with treats and waters was so thoughtful and appreciated. So enjoyed the granola. Love that there is a porch in back to go sit and enjoy the trees and being outside. The options for in room coffee with real cream in the refrigerator was so appreciated. Make sure you book the Appalachian Bistro on the property for a lovely dinner.

    Staying at the Highland Manor Inn is like taking a step into the past, but in a good way. It’s like visiting the Smokies back before it became so commercial. The place it dated (they still have actual room keys), but everything is in great shape. Would definitely stay here again in the future.

    We enjoy staying at Townsend River Breeze Inn because it's clean, price is right and it's quiet. Only 9 mile from Cades Cove. We took advantage of the swimming pool this trip, pool was great, water was very clear and everything was maintained really well. Just an overall great place to stay!

    Townsend is my preferred place to stay when visiting the Smokies. The Highland Manor Inn sits up off the main road through town. It’s quiet, while at the same time within close proximity to places to visit, shop, and eat. The motel is not new, but my room was very clean. I loved that I could park right in front of my room. I even had a nice view through my window.

    We loved the deluxe private cabin in the woods with all the convenience of having a 5-star Bistro for a special dinner, cafe for breakfast and lunch, coffee and bakery, clothing and general store on the property.
