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.

Beautiful Lakeside suite with private entrance
Would definitely come back for another stay here. Susan was extremely accommodating and provided us with snack and drinks upon arrival. Gorgeous neighborhood and view from the back porch of the lake. Super clean and comfortable space.

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 !

Sanctuary on the Lake *5Br 6Ba Lakefront Luxury*
loved the large house my family and I enjoyed all the games and my daughter really loved the secret room. the view of the lake was amazing and enjoyed fishing as well

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!

Lake House - 3 Bedroom Lake Front Rental Home!
Very nice place on the lake. Thanks for hosting us!

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!

Luxury Lakefront Home with Pavilion and Loft
I have never left a review before. I HAD to after staying at Shelly's place. It was phenomenal!! Clean, cozy, cheery, private, homey, restful, snug, safe, serene, happy to name just a few. Shelly provides so many extras that other B&Bs don't - both tangible and intangible. She's a beautiful soul and you feel her touches in every room, every day. She hand delivered a 1/2 gallon of frozen yogurt after she heard I was gluten free and wasn't able to eat the delicious cookies she left. The ONLY disappoint you'll have is when you have to leave. Oh and her new rental property is just GORGEOUS and ON POINT. It's right down the road. We took a peek before we headed home. Best of luck Shelly!! We hope to see you again!!!!

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.

Come have fun in the sun on the Tennessee River
Our family had a beautiful stay while visiting family in Tellico Village. We slept great, had lots of room to unpack and spread out, and the kitchen came stocked with some spices, flour, etc.

Dog Friendly, Lakefront Home w/hot tub, & dock
We had a great stay with our family here and hope to return. Great sunset views at this property.

Clean and well-stocked. Easy check-in. Walkable from downtown. Host was fantastic and super responsive.

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 :)

Riverside Condo on Peaceful Side of the Smokies
The place was immaculate! The kitchen was well organized and easy to work in. We felt at home from the first moment with all the thoughtful touches. I often feel like rentals and hotel rooms are too dark, but the lighting was excellent here—and ceiling fans! Loved staying here.

Riverfront Condo close to all attractions.
We sat on the balcony every morning and enjoyed the beautiful peaceful river view. Very comfortable and clean home with everything you need. Jackie was very helpful and accessible. Convenient location. Definitely recommend this condo.

FREE Dollywood Ticket • 3bd 3ba • Condo on River •
