About this property

Secluded River Lodge, 4 K suites hot tub & firepit

Welcome to Rocky River Lodge — proudly hosted by Woods & Waves Vacation Homes.

Set on a private, wooded 3-acre riverfront parcel, this luxury lodge is where mornings start with coffee and rushing water, afternoons turn into fishing, pool tournaments and arcade battles, and evenings end in at the firepit or the hot tub beneath the stars. With 150 feet of Little Pigeon River frontage and an easy drive just 9 miles to Gatlinburg (no steep roads, no stressful access), it’s the kind of place groups book for the Smokies…then happily stay put.

The cabin is beautiful! Kristie is so pleasant to speak with as i had questions before the stay. Fully stocked with dishes, towels, starter soaps and laundry detergent and dishwasher soap so that was nice! And shampoos and conditioner and soap for showers which was great! The hot tub was wonderful and the sound of the river makes for a peaceful stay and sleep. Kids loved playing in the river and husband caught trout. With a tennessee fishing license of course. Game room is great!

Senior Trip

One of our kiddos wanted to take her Senior Trip to the Smokies, and this cabin was perfect for us. I NEVER go barefooted in a cabin, but I did at this one. The floors were the cleanest we have ever had. We set new high scores on the arcade game, but I'm sure that you can beat them. We played pool, and we played in the river. It was close to everything that we needed and wanted! It was great!

About the host

Hosted by Kristi at Woods and Waves Vacation Homes

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Kristi! I’m a mom of four great adults, and a proud grandmother who believes life is meant to be filled with good people, fun, and family. Our vacation homes are designed for everyone—families, friends, and groups—who want to relax, reconnect, and make memories that last long after checkout.

I’ve been hosting for over five years and genuinely enjoy welcoming guests into our vacation home. From thoughtful touches to responsive communication, guest satisfaction is always my top priority. Whether you’re celebrating something special or simply getting away to unwind, my goal is for you to feel cared for, comfortable, and completely at home.

I’d be honored to host you, your family, and your friends!

Why they chose this property

This location is our favorite place to be. And we are happy to share it with great guests. We vacation here about 3-4 times a year so that we can offer the best for you.

We'll send you our tailored digital guidebook featuring Gatlinburg's top dining spots, our favorite National Park entrance, hidden gems, shopping areas, and the best putt-putt location—all curated specially for your enjoyment.

What makes this property unique

Being on the river is our favorite part of Rocky River Lodge. With the rapids directly below the house, you can just sit in the hot tub or one of the two decks and enjoy the sounds and sight of the river rushing over the rocks. Immediately to the left and right of the cabin are calm areas, great for playing in the water. Please exercise caution in and around the river, at your own risk.
