In addition to the charming, comfortable accommodations at Townsend Gateway Inn, remember that it is located very close to history and music for everyone to enjoy. Most of the local restaurants have music on a regular basis, but the one place you dont want to miss is the Smoky Mountains Heritage Center right down the road. Amazing concerts in an open air but covered concert hall, museum covering the history of the area and more.

Ahhhh. The rhododendrons and mountain laurels are coming into bloom. So as you drive through the Smoky Mountains you will enjoy the wooded hillsides along the river covered in pink blossoms.
Just drive from your comfortable accommodations into the Park to see these beautiful sites.

Cades Cove is such a special place...the scenic views are incredible and the wildlife can often be seen around every bend, (Just remember to keep your distance from the wildlife...just enjoy the view). If you are planning to make your trip here soon, be aware of the annual restriction every Wednesday starting May 5 and through the summer. No motorized vehicles are allowed in Cades Cove on Wednesdays, which gives the walkers, hikers and bikers a safer way to enjoy it. So arrange your schedule to be there on Wednesdays if you will be walking or biking, but if you are driving, plan another day to see the Cove.
With Townsend Gateway Inn being a convenient place enjoy the rest of the area the other 6 days of the week, there is never a lack of fun things to do or see if hiking or biking is not your preference.
