Great Location- On the River- Easy walk into town!
About this house rental
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. Also, Please take a look at our newest listing, just next door.

This property was recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint! The home is well-appointed and perfectly located on a quiet street that is walking distance to Gatlinburg and east drive to PF. My kids LOVED playing in the stream out back. We would absolutely stay here again!

Our extended family of 10 (ages 4-68) had a great stay at this lovely home. Plenty of bedrooms and baths, and kitchen was roomy. The kids especially enjoyed exploring the river, and many attractions were within walking distance. We did a lot of cooking, including Thanksgiving dinner. I would suggest replacing the pots and pans, as there were many pans with rust that were not usable. Overall, it was an enjoyable trip!

This cabin was okay. The location was good. The host was responsive to messages for the most part. However, the alarm system kept going off, which was kind of annoying, but we were able to turn it off. The television access wasn't working for youtube tv, but we were able to use our own log in through a different service. The whole place needs a really good DEEP cleaning. The blinds had tons of dust on them, and the walls need wiped down, etc. Carpet needs replaced. It was right on the river, which was pretty, but it would have been nice to have actual steps to get to the river. We have paid this same price and stayed in a much more updated, cleaner cabin on other trips. The location was very close to downtown though, which saves a lot of time getting into town to do things. If location is your main factor, this cabin would be okay for that. If you're looking for an updated cabin with all the bells and whistles, this isn't it but know you may have to drive further out to get to your cabin and spend more time getting back into town. Again, the host was nice and responsive, so that was a plus.

The house was very nice! We loved sitting on the back deck listening to the river running by and enjoyed fishing in the river. The walk to the trolley stop is not too bad except your on a narrow road with no shoulders. We never saw a trolley running in the same direction we were walking so we ended up walking all the way into the parkway or driving to a public lot to park then walk the parkway. Hot tub was not yet working when we stayed in the house. Hot tub is just sitting on the side of the house. It would be nice if it could be tucked around the back of the house for more privacy. House number was not showing on the house but the other two units prior were labeled so we were able to locate the house. Overall it was a great trip!

Perfect hybrid
The cabin was perfectly situated just outside the main Gatlinburg strip, walking distance to a great alpine roller coaster, but also on the “pigeon forge side” of Gatlinburg so we didn’t have to drive through heavy traffic to get to areas of interest in Pigeon Forge. Also, the creek in the backyard made it feel like a real mountain vacation. Our kids had a blast! My mom broke her leg at Dollywood so the first floor bedroom and spacious bathroom were such a blessing to maneuver a knee scooter. Cabin was well stocked. We will definitely be back!

Exceptional location
Very timely correspondence with host. Easy checkin process. The highlight of the property is the easy access to downtown and the creek/stream behind the property. There was minimal road noise because of the stream. We enjoyed our stay and would return to this location. The property could use an overall deep clean, but the rooms/furnishings were well suited for our large group.

Beautiful river location
Our favorite feature is the river just behind the house. House is very spacious. The game room has a door so we used for toddler with our own blow up mattress which left 4 bedrooms for grownups. Short walk to trolley stop and to town. We rode the trolley around to see everything.

The house and location were great and access was easy.
It would have been helpful if the house number was in the house as I didn’t copy/paste the VRBO ID number for easy access. I’ve never searched for the house via this method previously.
Also, it appears that a hot tub had just been delivered and the top as well as other parts were delivered just inside the kitchen door so we had to move everything to get inside.

Just as they said
Having 'friends' tickets to Dollywood, my husband and I invited 2 of my brothers w/wives and a friend couple. We were not too far from Dollywood and enjoyed a day there. Most of our time was in Gatlinburg, which had the art and crafts show in town. Although all in our group was 68-80 yrs old, we could walk to the strip for shopping and dining with no problem!
The house was very comfortable and we enjoyed the gas fireplace to take the chill off after sitting on the deck, overlooking the water. I would definitely stay here again.

This is a very nice house located on the Little Pigeon River and an easy walk into Gatlinburg. There were 4 of us ladies that spent a long weekend. Having the 4 bedrooms and 4 baths made it really convenient. The mattresses were extremely comfortable. It was really nice to be able to sleep with the windows open and listen to the river. We even saw a bear climbing the hill on the other side of the river. We had all of the equipment kitchen supplies that we needed. We would definitely stay here again. But, there are a few things that could make it a little nicer. Although it looks like normal housekeeping does a good job, the house really needs a good deep cleaning. I dropped an ice cube that melted and when I wiped it up the paper towel was black. So, the floor needs mopped. There is a lot of dust on the wall hangings and other areas. The walls and baseboards could definitely be wiped off. The kitchen trash can is annoying as the lid will not open when you step on the footpaddle. And although I had no trouble climbing into the high bed, my friends are shorter and would have appreciated a step stool. But, I did get a good chuckle out of seeing them jump, climb or roll into their beds.
I don't mean for my negative comments to necessarily be bad, just suggestions to make it better. But as I said, we would definitely stay here again.

An oasis within easy walking distance to Gatlinburg
We love this house! A great place for multiple generations of family to gather together in a beautiful spacious well appointed house. You get the peace and tranquility of the river right off the main road into Gatlinburg.

We absolutely loved being right on the water! It was so peaceful. The property is close to the main strip but still feels away from it. The property is very spacious. We had 6 adults, 2 teenagers and a 7 year old. Everyone had a great time.

Everything was great! Plenty of room for two families and didn’t have to fight the traffic on the strip. The sky lift is just about a mile walk. The beds are very comfortable and the deck and River access is wonderful. The kids played in the water everyday but keep an eye out, whad to call them quickly back one afternoon because a big black bear wandered right down the bank.

Could not have been more happier with this cabin. A beautiful cabin in a beautiful setting within walking distance of downtown Gatlinburg. Mornings on the deck watching eagles on the creek. Evenings eating great dinners and retiring to very comfortable beds. Fishing or tubing with the kids. This place has it all.

This property is AMAZING. Everything is perfect. The location is the upmost important part giving everyone access to Gatlinburg within walking distance. The river is beautiful and plenty to do such as fishing, wading around the rocks, the sound, and grandkids playing in the water for hours. You feel like you are secluded but the walk into town is about 10 minutes and you hardly know your that close to town. Parking and driving in Gatlinburg can be a nightmare but not staying at this location. The home itself is wonderfully laid out. So much room for everyone to have space for eating, relaxing, and sleeping. Four bedrooms upstairs had bathrooms to each. The main bedroom downstairs was perfect for the older couple (me and my husband). One bedroom had a pull out couch bed and our 16 year old son that is 6'4 and 250 pounds slept perfectly. ALL of the beds were VERY comfortable. Not many channels on tv to watch but we were not there to watch tv and the few channels available made the kids happy!! The kitchen and ALL utensils were great. Made huge pot of spaghetti and had everything I needed. There is even an ice maker in the freezer which is always nice! The table allowed EVERYONE to gather for meals and activities such as games, coloring, etc. I can't stress how CLEAN everything was. We rent quite a few properties throughout the year and this by far was the most perfect in everyway. Caught a few fish, saw the Eagle multiple times. No bears on our visit and liked the security of the trashcans being bear proof or resistant just in case! 9 of us 6 adults, 2 younger kids and a baby all took showers with plenty of water pressure and no loss of hot water...Brilliant! I could literally sit for hours on the balcony just listening to the water from the river watching birds, chipmunks, squirrels, and the eagle roam around. Ordered pizza delivery and no issues finding the cabin which was great. Really nice grocery store just a few miles down the road to stock up the cabin. We will definitely be back again and possibly rent from Myra's other locations. I can't give enough recommendations on this cabin...it is perfect in every way!! Everyone had access to wifi for checking emails, texts, which was wonderful. Plenty of parking with no issues of getting in and out to leave for other town visits!! We will be back very soon to relax and enjoy the beauty of the mountains.

The house was the perfect size for our family. We had 6 adults (3 couples), 2 Teenagers, 1 toddler and 1 infant. There were plenty of beds and bathrooms for everyone. The kitchen was a good size and was well stocked with plenty of dishes and pots and pans. The dinning room table was large enough for all of us to sit around. Proximity to the river was great. While we were in walking distance of the trolley system, we did not use it because it was always FULL. However, we did walk up the strip and it was no too bad of a walk.We all agreed that we would stay here again.
