Close to town
We chose this property because of the location and it did not disappoint. We were tired of driving 30 minutes up and down a mountain just to go eat. This place is 10 minutes from everything and no switchback mountain roads. The creek was beautiful and weather was great. House was just as described. The only disadvantage I saw was pulling out of the driveway. If the neighboring house is occupied then you can’t see past their vehicle to pull out on the highway and the traffic flies on that road. My advice is to have a spotter. Would definitely stay here again.

Snow day of the Lazy River
Our stay was excellent. We got a nice surprise of about 2 inches of snow which made this cute little cabin even more beautiful on the river. The only downfall is that it does sit so close to a busy road. Definitely use the advise they provide with parking and park backed in facing towards the road. You will only be able to leave out going to the left and use a place right down the road to go back the other direction if needed. I hope to be able to come back again in the warm months. I want to get in that river! It’s low enough to walk around.

Amazing view!! My husband enjoyed fishing early in the morning and late in the evening, he caught many fish. If you love fishing this is the place for you! The cows also came and drank from the river, which I enjoyed watching. DO NOT READ THE OTHER REVIEWS!! You have to see the property for yourself. Also Geri (the host) was very responsive.

About the host

Host profile image
I have always loved the Smoky Mountain area & my best memories is when my Daddy would take the whole family to the mountains every year. I can remember dreaming about how great it would be to live in one of those wonderful mountain cabins when I grew up. This has been a dream of mine that has stayed with me throughout the years.

I live in Nashville and I bought my first cabin named Chocolate Moose in 2007 & several more over the following years. I really enjoy remodeling & decorating the cabins & making them cozy & comfortable home-away-from-home for my guests to visit & enjoy. All my cabins are all pet-friendly because I know how important it is to take 4-legged best buddies along on vacation.

I feel so lucky to have these wonderful cabins & chalets in the beautiful Smoky Mountains & they are all very special to me. I know you will like them as much as I do.

Why they chose this property

After being in the overnight cabin rental business for many years, I quickly learned that many guests are very afraid of driving on steep-winding-curvy-white-knuckle-nail-biting mountain roads going back & forth to their rental cabin, especially after dark.

So, I set out to find a cabin that would have easy access to all the fun activities, restaurants & grocery stores without having to travel any steep mountain roads. When I found this cabin located right off of a good main paved road & close to all the activities, I knew this would be one of the favorite places for my guests to stay. Being located right on the riverbank of the Little Pigeon River was really a plus.

When I saw that the cabin had ZERO STEPS to walk onto the deck & enter the cabin's main level & for a vehicle to be able to pull right up to the deck, I knew this was another important thing for so many of my past guests. Right away, I knew that this would be my next cabin.

Another important factor was when I discovered the closeness of Dollywood & all the Pigeon Forge activities & being able to travel good back roads to avoid the normal heavy area, I was really excited to have found this cabin. And, being located right on the river! What could be better than that!!

Contractors & I gave this cabin a mayor over-haul & face-lift in the summer of 2018. While working on it, my Great Pyrenees, Buddy & I really enjoyed watching all the friendly river tubers wave as they floated down the river. They all seemed to enjoy the laziness of floating on the river in the big tubes & relaxing & talking among themselves. That was when I decided the new name for the cabin had to be LAZY RIVER.

Over the years, I have had many of my guests ask where they could fish in the Smoky Mountain area. Now I can tell them that I have the perfect fishing spot, right out the back door of the Lazy River on that huge gigantic rock right on the river.

What makes this property unique

Lazy River is located right on the river bank & overlooks Little Pigeon River. There are 2 covered decks with a hot tub, table/chairs, rocking chairs & porch swing. Also. a fire-pit in the back yard overlooks the river. For safety, the path going down to the river has a hand-rail. It leads right to the river from the back yard. There you can fish, swim, wade, tube, kayak or just enjoy the peacefulness of the river. Access to the river is from the lower level deck, a path with a hand railing leads right to the river.

Lazy River has such a convenient location from I40 & then being able to go into Pigeon Forge, Sevierville & Gatlinburg on good main paved back-roads to avoid usual traffic.

There are no scary mountain roads to climb. It is off of the main road that will take you to Pigeon Forge without the usual heavy traffic. There are gas stations, grocery stores, markets, bars & other businesses all within 1/2 mile of the cabin on this main road, making it very handy not to have to get into the traffic unless you want to.

This cabin has been completely remodeled & decorated inside & out. I think my guests will really enjoy spending time at Lazy River as much as Buddy & I love it there
