River Retreat

Welcome to River Retreat, a peaceful riverfront cabin in Tennessee, where the sound of the Little Pigeon River sets the tone for a relaxing and memorable getaway. You can even consider this charming abode a top fishing spot in the Smokies! Just under 8 miles from the excitement of Pigeon Forge, this 4-bedroom, 3½-bathroom cabin with space for up to 12 guests offers a cozy blend of Smoky Mountain charm and group-friendly comfort. 

Bonus: This cabin is pet friendly, so the whole family can come! From cozying up by the fireplace and soaking in the hot tub to playing games and making s’mores by the water, your crew will find everything you need to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy the mountains at this log cabin on the river. 

Living Room

After a day exploring Dollywood or riding horses in Cades Cove, kick back in a warm and welcoming living room where nature peeks in through every window. A stone-framed gas fireplace anchors the space, paired with plush seating and a large TV for casual movie nights or early-morning cartoons. Whether you’re curled up with a book or catching up over drinks, your cozy cabin brings everyone together on your Smoky Mountain vacation.

Kitchen

Cook up hearty breakfasts or riverside dinners in the fully equipped kitchen at your vacation rental, complete with stainless and black appliances, a double sink, prep and serving tools, pots and pans, and a dishwasher to make cleanup easy. Brew fresh coffee — Keurig or drip — while watching the river shimmer through the windows. 

Dining Area

Just off the full kitchen, the dining table at your mountain escape seats 6, with extra seating nearby, making it just as perfect for meals as it is for puzzles, game nights, or late-night chats. Enjoy memorable mealtimes every day on your Pigeon Forge vacation. 

Rec Room + Loft

Fun is built into the experience at your Pigeon Forge cabin rental. Downstairs, the game room is a favorite hangout with a pool table and comfy armchair. Upstairs in the loft, you’ll find a foosball table and a sofa ideal for winding down between rounds. With multiple game zones, everyone can spread out and still stay in the mix — adding to your list of affordable things to do in the Smokies!

Bedrooms

With 1 king bed, 3 queen beds, a twin-over-twin bunk, and a queen sleeper, your Smoky Mountain cabin offers a variety of sleep options across 4 cozy bedrooms. TVs in every room make winding down easy on your family vacation or weekend with friends. And river views from 2 of the bedrooms create a serene start and end to each day. 

With 3½ bathrooms, there’s no need to wait in line — getting ready for hikes, outings, or just relaxing at the vacation home is a breeze.

Outdoor Spaces

The real magic of this waterfront cabin in the Smokies is outside. Spend quiet mornings rocking on the decks with a cup of coffee and the river flowing just below. Fire up the charcoal grill, enjoy meals at the picnic table, and soak in the hot tub while stars peek through the treetops. And when the day cools off, gather by the firepit for stories and marshmallows — with the soundtrack of the river running beside you.

Other Amenities

Enjoy high-speed Wi-Fi, self-check-in with keyless entry, and a washer and dryer to make your stay comfortable and convenient. Best of all? You don’t have to leave your furry family members behind — this pet-friendly cabin welcomes Fido, with space to roam and plenty of tail-wagging potential.
