Relax at Granny's River Retreat, Short Walk to Downtown, 2BR
About this cabin rental
Located in Gatlinburg, this attractive cabin for £239 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. 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.

Easy walk to everything in town.
The river sounds block out the noise from town.
Well stocked with towels and cooking equipment. Clean hot tub and wonderful wood fireplace. I’d stay here again for sure.

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!

My girlfriends and I just loved Granny River Retreat! It is close enough to easily walk into Gatlinburg and very fun place on the river! The owner is very quick to respond to my questions about checking which was super easy! Will def recommend to other friends! Thanks so much for an enjoyable stay at your darling retreat! N

The location was great! The property was very clean, the only issue and it wasn't a deal breaker was that the sofa had a bad smell to it which I am sure was due to it being a pet friendly cabin. Everything else was perfect!

This property is picture perfect and relaxing. Very clean and cozy. Sound of the water was so relaxing. Had a bear walk thru the backyard on the last day on his way to cross the creek. Couldn't ask for a better more relaxing stay.

Corky gave us a great place to stay, we really enjoyed it. Hope you don’t mind but we watered all the flowers while there! :) Very nice cabin and peaceful stay.

We were very impressed with this quiant cabin. It is very cozy. It was the cleanest place I have ever stayed in. Sitting on the screened porch having coffee or a glass of wine listening to the river flowing over the rocks was so relaxing. We didn't want to leave. I am sure we will rent this lovely cabin again. We really enjoyed our stay.

Thank you,

I and my adult children and spouses thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It was clean and well stocked. The location is within walking distance to downtown Gatlinburg. The view of the river is relaxing, and we saw geese, a belted kingfisher and a small water snake sunning on a rock. I would recommend this cabin for a lovely getaway.

Cozy throwback cabin that is well furnished a maintained. Ideal location with easy access to downtown and a fabulous view/sound of the river right behind the cabin.
5.0
We enjoyed our spring break here! Enough room for a family of 4 and a dog. Our kids are older, so the spiral staircase wasn't bad, but with little ones, might be a little worried.
Distance to town was great. An easy walk especially with all the traffic on the strip.
Super relaxing on the screened in porch with the water sounds in the background.
Would stay there again.

After a couple of bad experiences with Vrbo rentals I was about to swear off of Vrbo and use hotels but our experience in Gatlinburg was perfect. This cabin was rustic but very clean and comfortable. One problem I have seen with some Vrbo rentals is old uncomfortable mattresses and furniture and towels that looked like they were ready for the old rag drawer, Towels and linens looked new and furniture was very clean and comfortable. The sound of the rushing creak just outside the backdoor was also very relaxing. We actually wished we could stay another day or two but unfortunately the rental was already booked. We would love to come back and stay again.

We loved the River thru the backyard and being so close to downtown. We walked to the shopping. We went fly fishing with Smoky Mountain Anglers guide.

This property was just as described! It was close to town but still felt private. You could see the traffic from the main highway into Gatlinburg while on the back porch, but the sounds of traffic were muted from the peaceful sounds of the river in the back. My 2 year old son came with us and luckily we brought a baby gate. The second floor would not be ideal for a toddler, and the baby gate came in handy to block off access to the spiral staircase on the bottom floor. This property felt cozy and was just what we were looking for on this vacation. 10/10, would recommend this property to anyone!!

We enjoyed our stay on the river! The cabin was clean, beds comfortable, and everything we might need was provided. The boys walked into town several times to do fun things, and we all enjoyed being right on the river and hearing the geese honking. The cabin is on a dead end road, so no traffic, and it was a very quiet, safe place. We were so grateful we could bring our dog!

Wonderful experience with cabin, hot tub, riverside location. Fun walking to shop and eat. Getting upstairs would be a problem for those with limited mobility.

Just loved the location, on the river but still close to everything. It’s an easy walk to most attractions. Enjoyed the evenings in the hot tub. I would recommend it.

The area was fine. Loved the location. The property was fine. My only issue is the spiral staircase. Difficult for carrying up luggage. We’re older and it was a challenge. We knew about the stairs but didn’t think it would be a problem. Not a lot of closet space. Good for younger group.

This is the second time we have stayed at Granny’s River Retreat and once again it did not disappoint. The place was very clean with all the amenities we wanted. Our time was very relaxing with the stream in the back and hot tub under the screen porch it was everything we were looking for. Hope to be back next year!

This place worked perfect for our family. Close to the park to drive for a mountain hike, close enough to walk to town whenever we wanted and a nice stream in the back to relax by.

The photos for Granny’s River Retreat do not do this cute cabin justice….it is one of, if not, the cleanest rental properties we’ve ever stayed in, and it offered the best of both words (a very short walk to activities and a relaxing backyard with the soothing river as the backdrop.)
My husband and I had our 3 year old son with us. We were able to toddler-proof the cabin by bringing a childproof doorknob cover with us and by placing some suitcases and a chair at the top of the spiral staircase while he slept. Our son absolutely loved this cabin and will be talking about it for a year to come!
Amanda, the daughter of the owner, was fantastic to work with and was a great communicator. We’ll be back!

Extremely pleased with all aspects of the property. Very clean, good amenities, well stocked with necessary items, very comfortable beds and plenty big enough for a family. Walking distance to downtown Gatlinburg, yet a very quiet, peaceful and serene location. Would absolutely stay again and recommend.

This cabin offered all the necessary amenities for a relaxing getaway. The sound of the creek right outside the back door was wonderful.
