Welcome to Riverbend! Tucked within a magical canopy of trees in Tennessee's Great Smoky Mountains, this beautifully redesigned three-story cabin is a short drive from the country's most popular national park and countless other year-round activities and attractions. With six bedrooms, five bathrooms, and room for 14, it's an adventure waiting to happen for a fun travel group looking to experience one of America's true treasures.
Our guests' 5 favorite things about this house:
•
It's close to everything but away from it all. At Riverbend, you're near all the touristy goodness in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg (10 minutes and 30 minutes by car, respectively). But when you've had your fill of the food, fun, and art, you get to happily retreat to your cabin on the "quiet side of the Smokies." You're also just 20 minutes from Dollywood and a half-hour from one of the least-traveled gates of Great Smoky Mountains National Park -- a total best-of-both-worlds situation.
•
The epic outdoor spaces. There's certainly no shortage of cool stuff inside this warm and modern home -- especially since it was redone with creative and eclectic touches throughout. But the cedar-style outdoor hot tub, backyard fire pit, and deck featuring a lounge area, hanging chair, and grill are pretty tough to compete with.
•
Billiards, poker & karaoke. Knowing you'll probably want to stay in after a full day of adventuring, we brought some of your nightlife favorites home to you! The recreation room here sports both kinds of tables (poker & pool) for the sharks in your group, as well as a full-blown karaoke setup complete with a microphone & stand, song machine, and instruments to coax out singers and strummers alike.
•
The best of everything -- and lots of it. We promise you'll be impressed by how nice the little touches here are -- and how many will end up making your trip better and easier. In the kitchen, you'll find tons of premium cookware, matching dishes, and an impressive amount of basic ingredients, paper towels, and other essentials. Meanwhile, the bedrooms all feature blackout shades, top-quality mattresses, linens and bedding. And the bathrooms and laundry room are stocked like you live here full-time.
•
The camping-themed kids' room. Why rough it outdoors when you can camp in the comfort of this home? The decked-out kids' room includes queen-size bunk beds, a cozy tent for story time, a giant game of Connect Four, and that campsite classic, ring toss.

If you love spending time in nature, staying active, and celebrating wildlife, a trip to the Great Smoky Mountains is a must. Located along the Tennessee/North Carolina border and home to the country's most visited national park, the Smokies provide over 800 miles of hiking trails, rivers, and a good chance at a black bear sighting. The ancient mountains invite you to connect with one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world and walk among century-old trees. Talk about a step back in time!
