Little River Cabin - Riverfront, 1 mile from GSMNP - Romantic Getaway!

Smoky Mountain Views is proud to present "The Little River Cabin!" This special place is ideal for a romantic getaway or for anyone wanting to enjoy the Great Smoky National Park, hiking, swimming, fishing, tubing, or biking.

Nestled amongst a small group of sweet little cabins, there is a quaint, peaceful feeling when you arrive here. Enjoy the views and sound of the river from the cabin itself or take a short walk to our little community's river entrance to go fishing or to swim. Enjoy the hot tub, firepit, arcade, gas fireplace, Cable TV, Wi-Fi, comfy king bed, and the park-style charcoal grill.

This cabin's location is a gem! It is only ½ a mile to the National Park Entrance, 9 miles to Cades Cove, 18 miles to Pigeon Forge, 20 miles to Dollywood, 22 miles to Gatlinburg or Sevierville, & 27 miles to Knoxville's Airport.

*Please note: This is an old-fashioned, one room-style cabin without a actual separate bedroom. There is a KOA campground on the other side of the river. There is no dishwasher, washer or dryer in this little cabin, but there is a laundry mat a couple of miles down the road. Also, our shower is on the small side for tall people (like my hubby) although being an avid hiker- he claims this is a good tradeoff for the location! Lastly, please remember firewood and charcoal are not provided but can be found for sale just down the road.

Guest booking must be 25 years or older. NO PETS. No parties or events. No Smoking or Drug use on property. No fireworks. Parking area and entrance are under video surveillance. Signed rental agreement REQUIRED to gain access to property. Check-In time is between 4pm and 10pm FIRM.

25th Anniversary Celebration! Perfect little location along the river. My absolute favorite is the sun room! So relaxing and beautiful. Other cabins are pretty close on either side. My only suggestion is a privacy fence on the side of the jacuzzi. The cabin was very clean and cozy.

Peaceful Anniversary Getaway

This cabin was the perfect choice for our 20th anniversary. It was clean, the bed was very comfortable, and the fireplace and hot tub helped us almost forget about the poor weather. We would definitely stay here again.

This was our second stay here and it was just as enjoyable as the first. Just enough privacy to feel secluded, but still close to shopping, restaurants, etc. The sun room is absolutely wonderful with a fantastic view of the river. We will be back!!

Much needed getaway!

I enjoyed a short stay at The Little River Cabin while joining with family at a nearby campground to celebrate the Labor Day weekend. It was very comfortable and was the perfect, peaceful destination to escape to at day's end. Spent long mornings on the beautiful sun porch before heading out for the day - my favorite feature of the property! Wish I could have stayed longer and hope to come back soon!

River Cabin

The little cabin was cute, easy entry. Steps in front were few and easy for our ancient bodies. However, the back porch was a total shock. Just WOW!! That was our place to be, better than TV looking out over the river from tree top level. Hated to pack up and leave.
