About this property
High N' Dry | Pigeon Forge Cottage | River Walk | 1 Mi to Pkwy
High N' Dry is a comfortable 2-bedroom cottage tucked into the quiet River Pointe community in Pigeon Forge — just one mile from the Parkway but a world away from the traffic. Steps from the Little Pigeon River walking trails, set on a cul-de-sac with no through traffic, and with covered parking for multiple vehicles, trailers, and motorcycles, it's the kind of place guests come back to year after year. Close to everything, quiet when you need it, and genuinely feels like home. The cottage is single-level, raised on stilts with covered parking underneath — great for motorcycles, trailers, and keeping your vehicles dry. Inside, the living area has a comfortable living room with a gas fireplace, flat-screen TV, and a sofa sleeper for extra flexibility. The kitchen is fully equipped with a combo K-Cup and drip coffee maker, dining table with seating for six, and everything you need to cook a full meal. The King suite has an en-suite bathroom, and the Queen bedroom has its own deck access and shares a second full bathroom with the hallway. Both bedrooms have DirecTV and a full-size washer and dryer is in the unit for longer stays. High N' Dry sits in the River Pointe community, one mile from Stoplight #1 on the Pigeon Forge Parkway. The Little Pigeon River is steps away with walking trails along the bank and fishing access (Tennessee fishing license required for public waterways). You're 2.3 miles from The Island and LeConte Center, 3.5 miles from the Ripken Experience, 6.5 miles from Dollywood, and 12 miles from downtown Gatlinburg and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park entrance. The flat paved driveway and covered under-house parking make this a favorite for Rod Run, Shades of the Past, Smoky Mountain Jeep Invasion, and motorcycle rally weekends — plenty of room for trucks, trailers, and bikes. Primary renter must be 21 or older — no pets, no smoking, no parties. AT A GLANCE:

The place was the perfect location and had everything we needed! Clean and comfortable! Neighborhood was quiet, we did have bears at night which was kinda fun! More than anything the host is exceptional, always replying to messages quickly and also went out of their way when left something at the place!! I would definitely recommend and stay here again!
Our hosts were quick to respond through emails /texts. They were very informative! Our cottage was equipped with everything we needed and more! We had a great and enjoyable stay!
Our little house on Stilts was perfect! The scenery was gorgeous and it was very centrally located to everything we wanted to do in Pigeon Forge in Gatlinburg. Our host was very easy to communicate with and made our whole experience effortless.

About the host
Hosted by Stacia and Larry Morand
Hello! We are your hosts, Stacia and Larry Morand, and we warmly welcome you to our family's cottage, High N' Dry. In 2018, after an unforgettable anniversary trip to the Smoky Mountains, we were so captivated by the beauty and tranquility that we decided to establish Over the Mountain Cabin Rentals. The breathtaking scenery and serenity of the area inspired us to share this experience with others, and we hope that you will love the area as much as we do!
At Over the Mountain, our mission is to offer an exceptional and personalized experience to all our guests. We aim to provide comfortable, inviting cabins that serve as a home away from home amidst the stunning backdrop of the Smoky Mountains. Our goal is to be your family's place to vacation repeatedly, creating enduring memories for generations to come.
Over the Mountain offers a range of cabins, from cozy 1-bedroom retreats to spacious 5-bedroom accommodations, across the Tennessee Smoky Mountains. Our management model is to self-manage all our rentals. So be assured that when you reach out to us, you're speaking directly with the owners, not a property manager.
At Over the Mountain, we're all about making your stay truly special! From the moment you reach out about our cabins to the day you check out, we're dedicated to making your experience seamless and tailored to you. We're here to assist and support you every step of the way, ensuring your getaway feels just right. Once you're settled in, we respect your privacy – unless you need a helping hand or have something specific in mind. Your comfort and enjoyment are our top priorities
Why they chose this property
We had our eye on River Pointe for a few years before High N' Dry came available. There was something about the neighborhood that just felt right — quiet streets, the river running alongside, and only a mile from the Parkway. When we stay here ourselves we love just taking a walk around the neighborhood, especially in the morning. The geese and ducks that call the river home have become part of the experience. It's the kind of place that surprises guests who expect the Smokies to be all mountains and cabins — a peaceful riverside community where you can decompress, recharge, and still be minutes from everything.
What makes this property unique
• 1 mile from the Parkway, yet tucked into a quiet riverfront community on a cul-de-sac • Covered under-house parking — flat, paved, and trailer-friendly for cars, motorcycles, and larger vehicles • Walking trails and fishing access along the Little Pigeon River steps from the front door (Tennessee fishing license required) • Spacious grassy yard — rare for the area, great for kids or just relaxing outside • Seasonal pool and catch-and-release fishing pond at Honeysuckle Meadows, about 10 miles away • Xfinity high-speed Wi-Fi — 300-600 Mbps, ideal for streaming or remote work
