Unmatched Riverside Location in the Heart of the Smokies

Direct River Access & Breathtaking Views

Step outside your cabin rental and feel an immediate connection to nature. Our riverside cabins in Gatlinburg feature decks and patios with views of rushing waters, creating the perfect spot for savoring morning coffee or stargazing in the evening.

Many cabins offer direct fishing access — cast your line right from your backyard! The soothing sounds of the river create a natural soundtrack for your vacation, while still being just minutes from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park's most popular trailheads.

The changing seasons bring new beauty to these river views, from spring's vibrant greenery to fall's spectacular color show reflecting on the water's surface.

Convenient to Gatlinburg Attractions

Despite their serene riverside settings, some of our riverfront cabins sit within walking distance of downtown Gatlinburg's exciting attractions. Enjoy the best of both worlds — peaceful mornings by the water and evenings exploring mountain entertainment.

After a day of hiking, you can easily reach Gatlinburg's renowned outdoor restaurants, shops, and family activities without the hassle of finding parking. Return to your tranquil riverside retreat whenever you need a break from the excitement.
