Ready to fall asleep to the sound of the river?
Picture this: You step onto your private deck with a warm mug in hand, watch the water drift by, and breathe in the crisp Smoky Mountain air while the day’s plans gently come together. Maybe Anakeesta in the morning, Ripley’s Aquarium after lunch, and a peaceful soak in your hot tub under the stars to end the evening. That’s the everyday rhythm at Auntie Belham’s riverside cabins in Gatlinburg, and it’s why guests keep coming back.
1) Incredible Scenery (All Year Long)
Our riverside cabins are nestled in scenic, tranquil settings where you can enjoy flowing water, mountain backdrops, and the beauty of the woods, no matter the season. Step onto your private porch to breathe in fresh mountain air, listen to the river, and savor those quiet moments you came for. Many cabins are just minutes from downtown Gatlinburg, so you’ll enjoy the best of both worlds: peaceful views with convenient access to everything in town.
Summary: Nature views, fresh air, and water sounds set the scene for a relaxing Smokies escape, close to town when you want it, perfectly peaceful when you don’t.
2) A Truly Relaxing Ambiance
Nothing melts stress like the soothing sound of the river rolling past your deck. Guests love the restorative, unhurried vibe in our riverside cabins; ideal for reading, napping, or soaking in the sights and sounds from the porch swing. It’s the perfect reset.
3) Near Your Favorite Gatlinburg Attractions
Stay tucked away in nature while being just minutes from the best of Gatlinburg. Explore Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies, the Gatlinburg SkyPark and SkyBridge, Ober Mountain, the Space Needle, and the memorable shops and eateries along the Parkway. Then, return quickly to your comfortable riverfront retreat. You can visit the following:
- Great Smoky Mountains National Park: trailheads, scenic drives, wildlife viewing, and mountain vistas
- Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies: a top-rated family favorite
- Gatlinburg SkyPark & SkyBridge: jaw-dropping views on North America’s longest pedestrian suspension bridge
- Ober Mountain: year-round fun from mountain coasters to winter snow activities
- Gatlinburg Space Needle: 360-degree views of the Smokies
Summary: You’re minutes from iconic Gatlinburg experiences and the national park; yet it still feels like your own quiet corner of the Smokies.
