The house was exactly as it was pictured plenty of room for our family of nine. The river view was amazing and the amount of wildlife we were able to see just from the back porch was awesome. Definitely recommend anybody who wants to be close to all the attractions in Gatlinburg use this house we walked into town every day.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cabin! The property was spotless, well-maintained, and incredibly welcoming. The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk to town while still feeling peaceful and secluded. One of our favorite parts was relaxing around the firepit and listening to the soothing sounds of the river nearby. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and perfectly located getaway.

We recently stayed at this cabin with two families, and it was absolutely perfect for our group. The cabin was lovely, spacious, and comfortably accommodated everyone.One of our favorite features was the location. It was close enough to walk into Gatlinburg, yet still felt peaceful and secluded. Being right on the river was a huge bonus. We enjoyed relaxing mornings with coffee by the water, and in the afternoons we spent time fishing, wading in the river, and simply unwinding. We even spotted a bear or two during our stay, which was exciting, though we made sure to admire them from a safe distance.The cabin was clean, well-maintained, and stocked with everything we needed, including the essentials for cooking several meals during our trip.The host was kind, responsive, and answered all of my questions before we arrived. From booking through checkout, everything went smoothly and exactly as expected.We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and relaxing place to enjoy Gatlinburg.

About the host

Hosted by Blake Cross

Host profile image
My wife and I have been living in Gatlinburg since 2018. We love living here and getting to share what we have with visiting guests. Our desire is for people to leave happier than they came, and spread the good word that Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge is a "well worth it" place to visit!

Why they chose this property

Our criteria for the properties we buy are high quality, good roads to and from the cabin, and location. This property has it all! To sit on the back deck and enjoy the river, to walk to downtown, to enjoy the high quality property during your vacation, what more could one ask for on a getaway!

What makes this property unique

The unique benefits to this property are obvious. To be slightly repetitive, you cannot beat this location. As Gatlinburg grows and more and more people have to stay further than 30 minutes from downtown, this property is IN downtown already! You can walk to downtown within 10 minutes, or you can walk 5 minutes to the nearest Trolley Stop. But nothing is more unique than being ON the Little Pigeon River!! It is so beautiful and relaxing, everything one could ask for on a vacation.
