About this property

INCREDIBLE FAMILY LOG CABIN ON TROUT STREAM W/HUGE GAMEROOM, HOT TUB, 3 ACRES!

How about a cabin where the setting IS the vacation? A place where the grandkids can swim and play all day in the creek? Or a massive 2 acres of gently sloping front yard, where the whole family can enjoy touch football, volleyball, horseshoes, or tossing the frisbee? A place where everyone can gather on the huge back deck for coffee each morning, enjoying the rushing waters of Cosby Creek? A place where family can gather in the basement game room at night and on rainy days to enjoy playing pool, ping pong, air hockey, or working a puzzle? How about a marshmallow roast over the firepit?

Cabin On River's Edge is an amazing Smokies retreat in Cosby, Tennessee, that families have been enjoying year after year. This large log cabin sits directly on the banks of Cosby Creek, one of the Blue Ribbon trout streams of the Great Smoky Mountains. Children can wade, fish, swim, and float up and down this stream, ranging in depth from 1 to 3 feet in most places.

Families will enjoy the very spacious and private grounds - the property sits on 3 acres of gently-sloping hills. View the meadows and mountains from the front porch, and the ever-rushing waters of Cosby Creek from the back porches.

Kids and grown-ups love the huge basement game room, complete with ping pong, pool table, air hockey, and a 65 inch HDTV! River's Edge also has a nice-sized utility room complete with washer & dryer.

Cabin On River's Edge is comfortably appointed with fine furnishings and decor and has a complete kitchen and large dining area for great family meals together.

Cabin On River's Edge is only 7 minutes from the Cosby Entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and is less than a mile from the famous Carver's Apple House & Restaurant! Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge are each a 25 minute drive.

YES, SMALL WEDDINGS ARE MOST WELCOME. PLEASE ADVISE US SO THAT WE CAN TELL THE LAWNMOWERS NOT TO SHOW UP! ;)

Neighboring houses were visible but a nice distance away. Hot tub was on the smaller side but clean and easy to use. Wish the creek was a little shallower for the kids and the drop off not so steep but nothing you can do about mother nature. Over all a nice quiet stay and the kiddos loved the game room.

This property was an absolute dream. Has everything a family would want and need to have an awesome vacation. Location was great and not to far from things to do as we visited Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Would definitely recommend to others for their family getaways. What a fun time we had.

The cabin was wonderful! It had all the amenities we needed and then some! Each member of my family had a space they could enjoy. My mother loved the ambiance of the back porch while listening to the creek. My brother enjoyed the game room with its pool table. My wife and I were especially greatful for the hot tub after strenous hikes in the Smokies. The cabin had the perfect location too. Close enough to all the major attractions in the area, but far away enough from all the hustle and bustle. It made the trip feel extra peaceful!

Let me start by saying the place does need some minor TLC; however, everything else was exceptional. The fact that the stream was right outside the lower slide door and you could leave the door open and hear it from the living room, was amazing. The pool table, table tennis, and air hockey were great fun when the weather wasn't agreeable to be out in. We would definitely love to visit again.

It is an amazing place to stay if you love nature. The view is beautiful all around, and the house was everything we needed for our family. There was plenty to do for everyone, no matter what kind of activity you wanted to do. Our only problem was, it was already booked after us so we couldn't extend our stay! We will definitely be back!

When we arrived, the manager was fixing the dishwasher and the gas system on the first floor, which was very cold. He told me they had to order a part. I told him I needed to speak with the manager, and he said he was the manager. I told him I wanted to speak with someone above him, and he said he would pass on the message. No one called me to ask about the cold or the situation with the repairs. The laundry room is in bad condition, and I have pictures of everything. They never called me back. The cleaning is very poor; the floor is incredibly dirty!

Relaxation at it's best!

My husband and I stayed here with our two sons, ages 18 and 19, and our dog Bailey, and we LOVED every second of it! From the relaxing sounds of the creek right outside our door, to the well maintained and incredibly clean cabin, we had a perfect family vacation and are so grateful to have had this time together at this beautiful cabin!

The host was very welcoming, was able to get into the cabin a little earlier. The cabin is beautiful however, it was in need of some TLC, the heater in the basement reck room was not working and not easy to repair based on what the host said when he came to see it and also the sliding glass door had a sign that said not to open but it was a beautiful view of the stream so it would have been nice to be able to open that door. Unfortunately due to how cold it was in the reck room none of us were able to enjoy it. Thr dishwasher was leaking a ton of water to the point of not being able to use it. We had to hand wash everything although it was instructed in the host book to make sure to place all the dishes in the dishwasher. I did inform the host so he was aware but it was on our last night. Again the cabin is really cute but it really does need some maintenence.

Summer 2025 Family Vacation

We had a Wonderful time staying at this location, we really enjoyed the water and covered porches! We were a little disappointed to see a cabin directly behind ours. Wish there were TV's in the bedrooms and Master bed could be a bit more comfortable. Overall really enjoyed everything this place had to offer.

Overall trip was great! We didn’t like how big the drop off was to the creek but it still wasn’t terrible walking across.. we found some cool little creatures too!My one major complaint was We did have to wash the dishes because there was hair and fingerprints on some and there was some trash and socks under the bathroom sink in the master bath from previous guests.

Great stay at the Cabin on the River

Staying at the Cabin on the River in Cosby, TN was a great experience for our family. We really enjoyed coffee on the porch listening to the creek in the mornings. The cabin was clean and cozy. Also, there was plenty of natural beauty a short drive away, and the cabin is conveniently located to Gatlinburg. We look forward to visiting again in the future.

Great spot, not too close to the hustle and bustle of Gatlinburg and pigeon forge area but also not too far away from anything we wanted to do.
