About this property

Great Location- On the River- Easy walk into town! 5 Bedroom/4 bath

When you look at this magnificent property you will be as amazed as we were at this little piece of heaven. There is a soothing respite that is created by being situated DIRECTLY on the Little Pigeon River. There are very few properties in all of Gatlinburg that offer full access for the fisherman, the swimmer or the person that wants to sit on a rock and be taken to a place of total relaxation. Even for the grumpiest of souls, there is something totally relaxing when you crack your window and can hear the rush of the water over the rocks all night long. Imagine being able to catch a beautiful trout while your kids have played in the river all day and you have not had to leave your front porch. The Little Pigeon River is your backyard! So, relax and enjoy the soothing sounds of the rushing water. It is an easy10 minute stroll to the Center of the Gatlinburg Strip. The main sidewalk that goes completely through town is a five minute LEVEL walk from this house. You have fabulous parking and you do not have to climb a steep mountain road to arrive at your destination. You have all the feel of the mountains, the conveniences of a motel and you have the luxury of being in an individual home. It does not get any better than that. We built this house with our personal families in mind. The house has a Queen Bedroom on the main level so you can bring your grandparents or older family members and they do not have to maneuver many stairs. It is perfect in the fact that in this age of technology you will be amazed how quickly children are drawn to the magic of the river. They will want to play all day long. Which gives you the time to relax which is what a vacation is all about.
This home includes 4 very spacious Bedrooms (5 including the Den w/sleeper sofa), 4 Baths. All Bedrooms have Flat Screen T.V.'s and Wifi throughout the house. One of the 4 Bedrooms is located on the 1st floor with a Queen Bed and adjoining Bath. Upstairs, you will find the remaining Bedrooms, The King Bedroom has a private 4 piece Bath. The 2 Queen Bedrooms have beautiful views of the river. The Den has a Full Sleeper Sofa and a Flat Screen T.V. with PS3 gaming system. The Kitchen is supplied with everything needed to cook meals or snacks. The large Farmhouse Dining Table will seat 8 comfortably. Relax in the Large Living Room to watch your favorite Movie or Sporting Event or wander onto the Porch to simply sit, relax and visit. Enjoy the soothing sounds of the Little Pigeon River. We actually have 4 or 5 Ducks that like to be fed, so save some crackers or breadcrumbs for them.
We have added an easy Boulder Access path down to the river. It is located at the foot of the stairs to the left. The River is stocked once a week with Trout, so if you like to fish…pack your fishing rod. You will need to purchase a fishing license.

It was.a great property, thank you!

Amazing home!

I can't say enough about the location and overall experience we had at this property. Plenty of room and comfy beds. We enjoyed being so close to town, but still had the quiet, private stay. Very clean. We hope to return.

House was perfect for our family and walking distance to Gatlinburg. The view of the creek was won.

There was plenty for everyone to do. (We had 3 generations together.). We also had time to go swimming at the owner association pool.

What a lovely spacious cabin. We were all taken aback by the beautiful decor! The cabin was very spacious and exceptionally clean. My family loved being on the little Pigeon River. So many memories were made this week, thank you Rivers Edge!

Best location for a smokey mountain vacation

Surprisingly felt very secluded considering we were actually just a short walk to the commercial district of Gatlinburg. Best location we have ever booked, so close to everything. The location is only a five minute drive to the entrance of the smokey mountain national park, two miles from a grocery store and an easy drive to pigeon forge. House was clean and spacious. The whole family raved about the location.

Awesome property!

This place was perfect for our family of 10! We have stayed at a lot of VRBO cabins and this is one of the cleanest! The owner was very easy to get in touch with and was quick to take care of any problems. The river was so relaxing and we enjoyed the back porch. The home was beautifully decorated. You can not go wrong with this rental!

Outstanding location and the proximity to the river and downtown were perfect. The owner was very responsive and helpful with general questions. Sitting on our deck we watched an eagle land on a rock 20 yards from us. Very cool! Overall great place and we’d stay here again.

Just perfect

Had everything my family needed for a week of exploring Gatlinburg and the Smokies. Great home base. Made some meals and also took whole family walking into town for dinner a couple of times. Also great trout fishing out back which we had for dinner one night. Will most certainly be back.

Home on the River

We had two 8 year old boys that played in the River for hours when they were not playing at Dollywood. This allowed some peace and quite for us adults. Love the home and the beds are very comfortable too.

Absolutely Charming!

My family of 8 stayed in Myra's beautiful home a few days before Christmas. The home was so charming we all loved it. I'm a designer so I really appreciated her knack for design. Her christmas tree was perfect! The furniture and beds were extremely comfortable too! And it's an easy walk to the main strip which is why we chose this home. Gatlinburg is beautiful this time of year!

Breathtaking

Thank you for sharing your home with my family. Having the 4 bedrooms with a bathroom was nice.We enjoyed game night at the end of our day with the games provided. Listening to the creek in the morning was breathtaking. The kids even saw a otter playing in it!

"A Great Vacation"

My family and I enjoyed the beautiful home. The kids loved fishing in the river. It was very nice to have early morning coffee on the back porch listening to the water rushing across the rock, so serene. The house was beautiful and clean. The home provided all of our necessities for the week. The only issue was the slow internet. I would definitely recommend booking this home.

About the host

Hosted by Myra Rollings

Host profile image
A Group of 3 friends, a Real Estate Agent, A Methodist Minister and an Accountant and their families have vacationed in Gatlinburg for many years.

Why they chose this property

We have all vacationed in Gatlinburg and The Smokey Mountains for many years. We love the area and the people that live here. We have met so many great locals and are building lifelong friendships.

What makes this property unique

All you have to do is walk around the property or just step out on the front porch. It's The River! We like Mountain Views as well as the next person, but the flat land and The River stole our Hearts.
