About this property

Relax at Granny's River Retreat, Short Walk to Downtown, 2BR

Relax on the river in this rustic log cabin, which includes a private hot tub on the screened-in porch. The rushing waters of the Little Pigeon River provide a peaceful ambiance during your stay. You can also snuggle up in front of the wood-burning fireplace, made of native stone, on those cool East Tennessee evenings. Wood is provided from October through February. A mix of antique and contemporary furnishings add to the rustic feel of this cabin. All the excitement of Downtown Gatlinburg is a short walk away; however, if you don't feel like walking, take advantage of the near by Trolley Service to Gatlinburg, or Pigeon Forge .

This cozy cabin, located in a quiet neighborhood, is the perfect romantic retreat for you and that special someone, or bring a group of family and friends to enjoy comfortable accommodations for up to 6 guests. A spiral staircase leads you to the two bedrooms upstairs, both of which contain ceiling fans and queen size beds. The bathroom on this floor is furnished with a granite countertop, tile floor, and a shower/tub combo. The main floor features a queen size bed in the antique log great-room with hardwood floors. In addition, this floor features a 32' flatscreen TV with cable/DVD/VCR, fully equipped kitchen with breakfast table, full bathroom with shower/tub combo, and washer and dryer. The screened-in porch overlooking the river is also host to a ceiling fan, comfortable rocking chairs, and authentic barn-wood doors, which provide extra privacy. For you anglers, the stocked river is a guaranteed good-time for even the most novice of fisherman.

Very Cozy Cabin

This cabin was so cozy. We love how the livingroom is an old cabin with a wood burning fireplace. The hottub facing the creek was so relaxing.

Perfection on the river

This cabin was better than the listing described. It sits beside the river and you can enjoy the sound of water running from the porch or hot tub. It was exceptionally clean! The rooms are spacious and the location is right at the end of downtown. Would love to stay here again.

Great Location and Very Clean

I am a clean freak and it is very rare that I am completely pleased with the cleanliness of a property, that’s something I’ve just come to accept. This place was extremely clean. Walking distance to downtown Gatlinburg and short drive to Pigeon Forge. My family enjoyed our stay!

Perfect Property!!

We absolutely loved our stay at this cozy cabin! The view was beautiful and hearing the water run over the rocks was so peaceful. The hot tub was fantastic and perfect with the view. The cabin is so cozy and makes you feel at home. The beds are super comfortable which is so nice when you are staying for long periods of time. Having the fireplace was the best!

Anniversary trip

Everything was immaculate upon our arrival. Pictures don’t do justice to this place. The view of the river is what makes this cozy cabin which was bigger than it looks. It rained a few days and it was wonderful just to sit and listen to the rain plus watch the river. Definitely will be staying again soon. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin with us and our two pups.
