REAL LOG CABIN - TROUT STREAM - 25 MIN TO GATLINBURG - 7 MIN TO NATIONAL PARK

River Falls is one of the most desirable family cabins in all of the Smokies. This real log cabin rests in a private, secluded setting in Cosby, Tennessee alongside Cosby Creek, a blue ribbon trout stream. The stream is over 60 feet wide next to River Falls. Only 7 minutes to the Cosby Entrance of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park!

Guests will enjoy the beautiful, tranquil grounds surrounding the cabin as well. There is plenty of room for horseshoes, yard darts, and other activities. River Falls is appointed with fine furnishings, large flat-screen TVs with cable television, and wireless internet. Guests can enjoy the 4-person spa on the back deck overlooking Cosby Creek.

Upstairs, River Falls has a small living room with a queen size sofa sleeper, flat screen television, and a Pac-Man multicade arcade game!

River Falls is about 12 minutes south of Newport, and is a 25-minute drive to downtown Gatlinburg. The Cosby entrance to the national park is only a 5 to 7 minute drive.

Multiple families/family members can also reserve River Falls Bungalow, a 1-bedroom log cabin about 150 feet from the main cabin. River Falls Bungalow sleeps 4 and includes a full kitchen.

The sound of the stream was amazing! The cabin was easy to book and be close to family in the area. Quick drive to Gatlinburg when you want to feel the crowds and noise and back to quiet when you return to this lovely cabin.

Nice property next to a beautiful large creek with both a front and rear porch to take in nature. Layout worked well for three adults and one dog, having a first floor bedroom. Location was great for entering the National Park in Cosby.

The stream behind the cabin and the serenity of the location were wonderful. The cabin needed some work and was not clean when we arrived. I expected that when we had to pay a large cleaning fee, it would be clean upon arrival and it would cleaned after we left. The cabin was left in better shape than it was arrived to- and even after the fee we still had to wash, dry and put away dishes, ect. Or an additional cleaning fee would be added to our card!!?! And if that wasn’t enough, there was an envelope asking for tips for the cleaning, waiting for us upon arrival?? the floors were dirty, covered in hair, and hadn’t been swept in awhile. The pillow shams and bed covers were very dirty and smelled musty. The beds are unbelievably uncomfortable and the temperature is set to a climate that can’t be changed, making it sticky and muggy in the cabin. We spent a lot of time on the porch where it was cool and there was a breeze. Overall the weekend in the Gatlinburg area was fun and comfortable, but the cabin needs some TLC to make it a really comfortable vacation spot.

Little Peace of Heaven
We stayed here for our 6 year wedding anniversary, so glad we got to bring our 15 year old pup with us. The cabin was amazing. We enjoyed our stay very much. Seeing all the beautiful colors of the leaves and the leaves falling. I spent most of my time on the back porch, even when it got cool at night I just wrapped up in my hoodie and blanket. The sound of the creek is sooooo peaceful, that was worth the trip in itself, perfect place for drinking my coffee in the morning. I hate to leave and wished we had booked a few more nights. We ate breakfast and dinner outside everyday. The cabin was super cozy. Having a fireplace to use was perfect. The only downside for me was the hot tub wasn’t working properly. It would run for like 5 to 10 minutes then stop. Kept flashing Flo. We would have to wait a few minutes before we could turn it back on then it would stop again. I was a little creeped out by not having a blind for the window in the downstairs bathroom even though it was semi secluded. I definitely would come back and stay at this cozy cabin.

Very beautiful, romantic, peaceful and relaxing experience. Could use some exterior pressure washing as you can see spider webs outside the windows as well as a need for central ac can help boost this property. Overall, it was worth visiting and will have us consider going back.

Beautiful property
When we booked this property, my husband and I read it as this house was secluded. This was very important to us due to traveling with our dogs. Luckily, we were able to make the baby gate that was left on the back deck work with straps so our dogs could stay out there with us and not be on a leash the entire time. Just know this baby gate does not fit in the opening to the stairs on the back deck. We had to use straps to hold it up. Also, the listing does state that there is AC, there is but it's the smaller units that hang on the wall. It is not central AC. We got the house to cool off with using both box fans, ceiling fans, and both ac units (one upstairs and one downstairs), but it wasn't like what we are used to at home. Sleep was not pleasant due to it being warmer. It was just frustrating to be expecting secluded and AC and not be exactly that when we arrived. Other than these two things, this house is beautiful, very clean, and so relaxing with the creek in the back. The town is so cute, and everyone is so nice here! Recommendations: Make sure to visit Carver's Apple Orchard down the road! Great food, candy, and a farmers market to buy fresh produce! We also hiked Stone Mountain Trail. This hike was difficult but worth the view at the top and is dog friendly!

Cabin with a stream
We had a fun 2 nights, spent time in Gatlinburg and GSMNP. Groceries are available within 5 minutes and a few places to eat too. Property is as advertised, although some of the pics are a bit outdated. It was a little difficult to find, even with the instructions provided. Google maps has it right. When we arrived the back door was unlocked, and I had to compare the pics on the site to the cabin to make sure I was in the right cabin, as it is not clearly marked. Several other rentals in the area. The stream.is RIGHT at the back door. Very glad I did not bring the dogs as they would have been very difficult to keep them out of the water, so if your dog is motion driven, like mine, it would be a tall task. Make sure you read the check out instructions on the fridge as the one that come via email are different. I almost left without stripping the beds and moving the dirty towels to the washer. 2 bathrooms, upstairs has the shower, downstairs has a tub. We needed to leave the bedroom doors open and run fans to keep the bedrooms cool from the 2 wall mounted A/C units. Kitchen supplies get the job done, pots and pans a new and nice.

Very rustic
This property was not honest In it’s listing. It says there was air conditioning, but there is no central air, fans and two motorized wall mounts only. When it rained a musty/moldy smell took over the cabin. It also a fire pit and grill, but they were broken down and dirty. There was no good place for fishing. The bed was extremely uncomfortable, the toilet paper and towels were very thin. The outdoor furniture was not in good condition. If you use this cabin take everything with you because there was nothing like paper plates, napkins, seasonings, etc. We were very disappointed

Beautiful Private Setting
A beautiful cabin on Cosby Creek. Great place to sit and relax listening to the creek and swinging in the porch swing. Easy to get to and just the right size for our group of 5. Only issue is states it sleeps 6 but 2 would be on a couch upstairs and a loveseat downstairs. Would rent again.

The cabin was cozy and had everything you could possibly need. My dog loved swimming in the river. We enjoyed the hot tub after a long day of exploring the beautiful state of Tennessee. The beds were a bit hard for my old bones but overall, it was a great place to relax and get away from the city! Great fishing, good food and nice people. We will be back soon! Thank you!

The cabin and property were perfect. It’s a nice peaceful place to stay. Loved being so close to the creek. However it is not easy to fish at the cabin. Wish we would have had more information of places we could fish. Just up the road is a wonderful little restaurant Janice’s. Great food and friendly people!! We would definitely book this cabin again.
