CABIN ON RIVERS EDGE! FAMILY LOG CABIN W/HUGE GAMEROOM, TROUT STREAM!

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.

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!

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.

Beautiful valley

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It was very well stocked and clean. My kids had a blast playing in the river and it’s only about 30 minutes to the Gatlinburg entrance to Great Smokies, so we did a few small hikes too. (Note the Cosby entrance to the park is currently closed). We would definitely stay again.

Beautiful Cabin

It was everything that was advertised. The huge porches, wide open front yard and creek just steps from the back porch really make this place. The only thing we were a little disappointed in was that downtown Gatlinburg is about a 40 minute drive away and the Cosby entrance for the park was closed for repairs but still worth the stay!

Great location!!

We loved the cabin and the surroundings. We spent time on the decks, fishing, in the hot tub, relaxing and could even be outside when it was raining. The location is perfect, close enough to area attractions but far enough away to enjoy nature. We caught 1 trout in the creek. Enjoyed a day on Douglas lake, rafting, and the national park. The view of the mountains from just up the road is great to see the sunsets. Lots of space for the whole family to enjoy. We ate at Janices diner and the apple place and the dollar general had everything we needed. I would recommend this cabin for an enjoyable stay vlose to all the attractions you want.

Short but sweet. Don’t get to enjoy the cabin as much as we would have liked. Great location, and easy drive into Gatlinburg where we spent most of our time. Cabin is great, very cozy and loved the peace and quiet. We’ll book again

Fun New Years

We stayed here after Christmas until New Years Day. We went with my parents and in-laws and we had a blast. I suggest bringing your own board games because they had a few but not many. The gameroom was fun! It was a 45 minute drive into Pigeon Forge, and we went nearly every day. We all had a good time there and it was nice.

A much needed gettaway

The cabin was beautiful, cozy and just deep enough into the woods to feel free. The sound of the stream next to us was such a bonus. My family and I enjoyed our stay very much. Thank you for the memories.

This was absolutely breathtaking. Hated to leave. While we were there the creek got up but just listening to it was so relaxing. There was nothing about this place that was short of relaxing and peaceful. Hope to visit again.

Beautiful home with a lovely creek

My husband, myself and two of our adult children stayed in this cabin during our vacation. The cabin was very roomy and we felt comfortable during our stay. We enjoyed sitting on the top deck and listening to the babbling creek behind the house. The cabin was well stocked with supplies for our stay, and we would love to stay here again in the future.

Great get away

Had a great time with family. Was the perfect get away. House had all the comforts we could want. On the banks of a beautiful stream which was great to look at, listen to and fish in. Couldn’t ask for a better host. Went above and beyond whenever I reached out to him. Highly recommend this property.

Wonderful cabin

This cabin was perfect for our family. It had everything we needed, and it was a lovely place. Our children loved the stream and the pool table, hockey table, and ping pong. We also enjoyed the hot tub. The decorations were fun to look at too. What a fun place! The cabin was also close enough to Gatlinburg and the Great Smoky Mountains that it wasn’t hard to drive there, but it was hard enough away that it was very quiet. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Met our needs for sure

Loved the rustic cabin. Well furnished with plenty of kitchen things. Beds comfortable. The decorations were so rustic and outdoorsy! Loved being on the river and were able to fish and caught a few which grandkids enjoyed! A bit of a drive to National Park but loved not being in all the congestion!

Good overall experience with minor disappointments

The cabin is in a quiet location with sounds of the mountain creek flowing behind it. Perfectly peaceful! However,we had 8 guests in our party for a 3 night stay and there was only 1 roll of toilet paper in each bathroom and no soap to shower with. We had to make a dollar general run just for basics that are generally provided. Overall it was a pleasant stay.
