Spence Cove River Farmhouse ~ Fish, Swim, Tube, Kayak! WiFi, Hiking Trails

The River is Calling! Come experience the Peace and Beauty of this Unique Smoky Mountain Paradise. Fish, Swim, Tube, Kayak- all free and right in your front yard! Close to Dollywood and other attractions.
The perfect spot on the River where gentle rapids flow into a large, deep pool. Amazing view of the River from the Porch and inside. Feels like a World Away from all the hustle and bustle, yet so close to everything (10 minutes from Dollywood). Ideal Location: Rural Setting on 15 acres just off a state highway. Easy access; NO steep or curvy roads.

Modern Farmhouse on a century old farm surrounded by lush mountain ridges and green rolling hills. Beautiful walks along the River, up the creek under a forest canopy, or hike up the Mountain for more breathtaking views. Grass covered River bank for Swimming, Fishing, Tubing, Kayaking, Skipping Rocks, Crawdad Hunting, Catching Fireflies, and Roasting Marshmallows on the Campfire.

With 4 Bedrooms and 3 full Bathrooms, this home provides both privacy and togetherness. Spacious wrap around porch, hardwood floors, full service kitchen, jacuzzi, free wifi, high speed wireless internet Wi-Fi, washer, dryer, dishwasher, microwave, nice size refrigerator and freezer, Central A/C and Heat, Cable TV, games including Nintendo Wii game system (Wii Fit, and more). Bed linens provided. Towels provided.

A few steps from the River: The Middle Prong of the Little Pigeon River, also known as the "Greenbrier", is a free flowing stream rated the cleanest stream in Tennessee.. At the perfect elevation to offer a wide variety of fish (cold enough for Trout, warm enough for Smallmouth Bass & others), it is deep enough (year round!) to swim, tube, canoe, and kayak, yet mild enough to offer fun for all ages. Fish from the bank, wade, float tube, or kayak. Spin fishing, Bait fishing, Fly fishing or Cane pole fishing, it's all good at Spence Cove!

Take a stroll up the river road with your tube and float back down to the house. Lie on the grassy river bank in the warm sun or under the shade tree while the kids catch crawdads and play in the river. Watch the Kingfishers snatch a meal from the water's surface. Gaze in awe at the majestic Great Blue Herons and Bald Eagles as they glide over the river. Watch the Sunset on the River from the swing or a rocking chair on the spacious wrap around porch.

See the moon glisten on the river as it rises over the mountain. Star gaze at a night sky, unhindered by the lights of the city. Enjoy the light show of fireflies. Drift off to sleep to a Smoky Mountain Symphony: the roar of the River and the calls of cicadas, crickets, whippoorwills, and katydids. Awake refreshed by the River breeze, Mountain air, and the joyous birds chirping "Good Morning". It may be the best rest of your life! And, it Will be your Best Vacation Ever.
Tired of staying at a cookie cutter cabin five feet away from the next rental? Tired of driving curvy and steep mountain roads to get there? Tired of the impersonal, "business" attitude of vacation rental companies?

Come experience the Peace and Beauty of Spence Cove. The River is Calling!
