Secluded River Lodge, 4 K suites hot tub & firepit

Welcome to Rocky River Lodge — proudly hosted by Woods & Waves Vacation Homes.

Set on a private, wooded 3-acre riverfront parcel, this luxury lodge is where mornings start with coffee and rushing water, afternoons turn into fishing, pool tournaments and arcade battles, and evenings end in at the firepit or the hot tub beneath the stars. With 150 feet of Little Pigeon River frontage and an easy drive just 9 miles to Gatlinburg (no steep roads, no stressful access), it’s the kind of place groups book for the Smokies…then happily stay put.

The cabin is beautiful! Kristie is so pleasant to speak with as i had questions before the stay. Fully stocked with dishes, towels, starter soaps and laundry detergent and dishwasher soap so that was nice! And shampoos and conditioner and soap for showers which was great! The hot tub was wonderful and the sound of the river makes for a peaceful stay and sleep. Kids loved playing in the river and husband caught trout. With a tennessee fishing license of course. Game room is great!

Senior Trip

One of our kiddos wanted to take her Senior Trip to the Smokies, and this cabin was perfect for us. I NEVER go barefooted in a cabin, but I did at this one. The floors were the cleanest we have ever had. We set new high scores on the arcade game, but I'm sure that you can beat them. We played pool, and we played in the river. It was close to everything that we needed and wanted! It was great!

Beautiful

We stayed with my parents, two young adult nieces, and two young boys. The river is beautiful and loud. Be aware that the river is not a place to play in right in front of the house. The house is beautiful and comfortable- everyone has plenty of space. We’ve stayed in many vrbos and this has been our favorite. I will say this, not as a complaint but be aware, there’s some stairs and slick surfaces. Not necessarily a place for people with knee or stability issues. But for everyone else, it’s the best places in the smokies.

Rocky River Lodge Perfection

This place was amazing! We knew from the pictures that we were going to have a great time but this trip far exceeded our expectations. We came with the teenagers and grandparents for a Spring Break retreat. When we arrived the views took our breath away. The sounds of the river were so soothing and relaxing. We had so much room for the 8 of us. Each bedroom was huge with private bathrooms and 2 additional half baths!! The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare dinner and play games after spending the days exploring Gatlinburg. The drive into Gatlinburg was super easy and truly no traffic. The game room was a huge hit with video games and a very nice pool table which we took full advantage of some family competitions. Our 12 year old was so excited to fish in the river and he had a blast. He got to see an otter playing in the rapids and we saw eagles soaring overhead. The hot tub was a perfect way to soak in the sights and sounds after long days. We truly did not want to leave. Kristi was so kind and communicative and shared tons of details and tips. Thank you Kristi and Dave for sharing your little slice of heaven in the mountains. We can’t wait to come back.

Spring Break in Gatlinburg

This home was fantastic and was perfect for our Spring Break vacation in Gatlinburg. The home was as described in the listing and the host was excellent - she provided tons of information (even an app to download on our phones) about where to go to get groceries, activities in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, places to eat, and everything you needed to know about the home itself. The river was amazing and our kids enjoyed climbing the rocks and exploring along the bank. Kids and adults enjoyed the pool table, arcade games, hot tub and fire pit. We all enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property!

Great vacation!!!

This location we picked was amazing! It was a great vacation location. The cabin was the perfect size and location to a stream and a nice fire pit area. It was everything that all us of wanted. The only thing we didn’t use was the hot tub, but that was because we came back tired every evening and had plans the next morning early. We will definitely be booking this location again soon.

Beautiful Mountain Home

This home was perfect for our family getaway. Four master bedrooms each with its ensuite bathroom! The setting was perfect, secluded yet close to. Gatlinburg, the national park and more. The view from both large decks of the river were perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or evening glass of wine. The host was very responsive to questions. My husband's only regret was that he didn't bring his whitewater kayak because there was a perfect surfing wave on the river right in front of the home. He and my grandson did enjoy the quiet pool of water down the steps to the left and we all enjoyed the hot tub.

Thankful to have enjoyed our week at this beautiful river paradise. We had fun exploring the river ..of course with our river shoes and sitting on the balcony every chance we had. The kids played pool for hours and enjoyed the hot tub. The cabin is not too far from town and at the same time private from the hustle and bustle. The host was attentive to be sure we were settled in and readily available. Definitely very pleased with our stay.

The perfect home for our vacation with kids and grandkids! We’re an outdoorsy bunch, so we loved exploring the property, playing in the river, and the close proximity to the national park. We also drove to Anakeesta and did a couple of things in Gatlinburg…all a very easy, short drive. After our fun-filled days we’d relax in the hot tub and play pool in the game room. The owners were great to work with, and I’m so grateful they shared their vacation home with us!
