Cedar Lodge Condo
We had a wonderful stay! Great location that is close to many things to do in the area. Unit was very clean, spacious, & had everything one could need. Quiet and peaceful with a nice balcony looking over the river. Thank you for sharing your space!

Lake Hair Don't Care @ Lakeside
This is my favorite airbnb we have stayed in so far!! So peaceful and the room and view was amazing. Was a great place for a mental reset. We will definitely be staying here again.

"Farmhouse Chic: Poolside Luxury" Sleeps 16
I took my family to stay in the farmhouse the week of Christmas. The house was very clean and matched the description given. The heater in the pool was out but the hot tub worked. When I had an issue and reached out, it was resolved quickly. It is within walking distance of many things to do. We enjoyed the breakfast vouchers and drinks in the lobby. We also joined in the sing along and s’mores and loved it!

Cozy condo with amazing view!
Great place to stay. Location was excellent and peaceful. Host communicated exceptionally well. Condo was very clean.

Peaceful Creekside Getaway
This place was amazing and the backyard was beautiful. We had a blast. It's not too far from all of the restaurants and activities/attractions in pigeon forge. Takes about 30-40 mins to get to everything. The hot tub was the cherry on top. I 100% will be back !

Family getaway, romantic weekend, friend retreat
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Helio was very responsive to messages and made check in easy. We were there with 3 teenage boys and the space was perfect. There was plenty of space and the 3 full bathrooms was a major plus. The place had everything you need to cook meals etc. We were advised the night before we arrived that the fireplace was not functioning, which was a disappointment, but we were accommodated in other ways by getting early check in and late check out, which helped us out. The bathrooms were clean and well stocked, and the jacuzzi tub was also nice to have. I would stay here again if we were to visit the area again.

D/town near Anakeesta
Clean, easy, good location. would definitely stay here again :)
Waterfront house rentals

5/11-5/17 OPEN! Enjoy the creek & wildlife!
This house is even better than the pictures! It’s beautiful and peaceful. The decor is beautiful and comfortable. The house offered everything you could possibly need for your stay. The back yard is amazing! Beautiful water views and lots on animals to watch. The location is perfect. Far enough away from the strip to feel secluded, yet close enough to get to everything you need. Dollar General Market right down the road was very useful. We loved everything about our stay. The owners are very friendly and responsive also.

Brand NEW* river front, flat lot, near attractions
We loved our stay here! Our group really enjoyed all the space and the beautiful kitchen/game room. The host was extremely responsive and even worked with us on our arrival time. I will say if you are not familiar with the area, it seems like you are lost because the house doesn't fit in with the street, but we felt extremely comfortable and at home! We would 1000% stay here again. If you are needing a place for a fun girl's trip, this is your sign to book here!

Waterfront Tiny Home, Fishing Lake | Crane Cabin
Great location! Recommend the hot tub boats. This was a hit with the family! Responsive host that responded quickly to any questions we had thru out the stay. Once as you leave the property it is a Straight shot to the strip in Gatlinburg which is about 15-20 minutes away!

The BarnLoft at Foothills Farm Cosby/Gatlinburg
This was great! Loved this place. Just the right size for 2 people. Very clean and neat. Will definitely visit again!

Luxury Lakefront Home with Pavilion and Loft
Our stay was truly exceptional. The house was thoughtfully stocked, very clean, and the views were AMAZING. The property was spacious enough to accommodate two families comfortably, and the outdoor areas provided additional living spaces, allowing everyone to spread out and relax. Shelly and Chloe demonstrated outstanding communication throughout our stay, making the experience seamless and enjoyable. We look forward to booking this home again in the future.

River Front- 1 mile to Parkway- No Steep Roads
Great place, 2 bedrooms with king size beds and 2 full baths. Perfect for a family of 4. We went to Dollywood both days so didn’t get to enjoy the river but the view!!! You can just sit outside and watch the river flow or let the sound of it put you to sleep at night. Close to everything. We will be back for sure.

Dog Friendly, Lakefront Home w/hot tub, & dock
This place was absolutely amazing! Rooms were spacious and very comfortable. The screened in upper deck was our absolute favorite hang out spot. The house had great storage and room to spread out. The hot tub and fire pit were great! Everything was so peaceful and quiet. The only downside was the low water level of the lake but that is just the time of year. 10/10 recommend!!!

Spring Has Sprung-Pedallers Rest-1 mi. from Pkwy
Charming, very well equipped and beautiful porch with lots of birds, geese and water! Perfect place to relax with fireplace and Christmas tree!

Soothing Creekside Sounds
Great place to stay. Centrally located to lots of great restaurants, attractions and grocery stores. Loved sitting out back listening to the birds and the creek below. Very private and peaceful. Super clean with lots of extra nice touches. Check out Anakeesta, beautiful park and incredible Mountain views.

By Peaceful River/ Mountains Views/ Pigeon Forge/
We loved being right on the river with a view of the mountains. Also loved the gas fireplace since the mornings and evenings were cooler. Enjoyed not being in too busy of a place but it was so handy to whatever we wanted to do. It was easy to get to Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg or the park. Great place for 3 couples to stay. We thought it would be a great place for kids, too, but we didn’t bring any :)

River Dreams- Serene Retreat
The home was beautiful the outside was so beautiful and peaceful waking up and hearing the birds chirp in the morning was amazing all of the things they have on the Strip of Pigeon Forge to do was amazing we got to see things we've never got to see before my family of six was very happy excited and surprised

Riverside Condo on Peaceful Side of the Smokies
It was our second time to stay here. Quiet, not all the hustle and bustle. Easy to get to attractions when you want to.

Riverfront Condo close to all attractions.
We enjoyed this cute little apartment for our trip to Pigeon Forge. We had a family trip where we all met up in the middle somewhere and this was the choice for the destination. We were not there a whole lot to hang out because we were out and about doing activities together. Our favorite parts of the apartment were the balcony overlooking the river, the jacuzzi tub and of course the cozy cute fireplace in the living room! Was not too far from the main stretch in Pigeon Forge and was also far enough back to not hear all of the hustle and bustle from the main strip.

FREE Dollywood Ticket • 3bd 3ba • Condo on River •
The first thing I noticed was a clean smell as soon as I opened the condo door. The condo was awesome! Centrally located and so easy to check in and out. It had everthing you could want in a condo. Beds were super comfy and the Keurig hit the spot! Will definetly be staying with this host again!

Treetops Resort Gatlinburg 2Bd2B Condo. SATURDAY

River Song @ Cedar Lodge Resort, Rustic 2B/ 2B
