Cabin Name: River Bend

Need a getaway? You will love this adorable little cabin built just for two. River Bend is located on a cul de sac and right next to Little River. Just imagine, sitting on your deck, watching and hearing Little River flowing by. It's a great place to relax and rejuvenate your soul!!

"River Bend" is a cozy, romantic studio cabin located on Little River in Townsend, TN. Known as "The Peaceful Side of the Smokies," Townsend sits next to the national park and is only minutes away from Cades Cove, Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.

This studio cabin has everything in one room. In one corner there is a fully equipped kitchen (minus dishwasher) and dining set. The living room with a gas fireplace & cable TV sits in another corner. The whirlpool bath is in one corner with the comfy king size bed. The other corner is the private bathroom.

The back deck features a private hot tub and BBQ grill.

This cabin is located on an easily accessible, quiet circle and sits right next to Little River giving you waterfront property that is 2nd to none. From the back deck of the cabin, you can see the river and hear it rushing by. There is river access at a common space about 50 yards down. Right from the common area of the property, you can fish, swim or go tubing.

There are so many things to do in Townsend and the national park including hiking, tubing, biking, fishing, browsing the various shops, visiting Cades Cove, picnicking, swimming, visiting the Great Smoky Mountain Heritage Center and attending the various festivals/shows. After a busy day of sightseeing, you'll love returning to the warmth and comfort of "River Bend" and relaxing on the back porch overlooking Little River. There is also a bonfire pit for your enjoyment.

Beautiful and clean cabin
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin especially the close proximity to Cades Cove. The campground below the cabin is a little noisy but no fault of the owner. The cabin is cute but has a lot of “stuff” to make it feel like home. The kitchen table was set when we arrived and there wasn’t a place to set our food items we brought. There was no place for storing luggage/ bags. The shower was small to my husband but I’m smaller so it wasn’t a problem for me. Overall, a nice place to stay especially if you are going to visit the Smokies.
