Stayed Oct 20, 2022Dream Catcher was very unique. I loved the large skylight. The area outside was very relaxing, listening to the creek at night while sitting by the fire was wonderful! Access to the creek was easy. I will definitely be planning another stay!

Stayed Oct 17, 2025We loved staying at River Dreams. Very clean. Beautiful set up. The only issues we had was the noise from the road and the wifi. You can see and hear the traffic going by and we tried to get on wifi and could not. The login info for that did not work at all.

Stayed Aug 26, 2025Fantastic property! Everything was exactly like it looks in the pictures. The sharp turn in the gravel driveway was a bit challenging as I drive a Ford F350 dually, but the road is well maintained, and I just took it slow and had no trouble. The bed was very comfortable, the hot tub was great, and the river is beautiful! It is a peaceful neighborhood and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Stayed Jun 13, 2025The new sink and the kitchen never worked, we had to go to the bathroom. I called the property manager and did what they told me in the sink never worked. The power was out in the bathroom and the Wi-Fi was broken. Apparently, it had been fixed tonight before, but no one decided to let us know what the new password was. We got in the middle of the night and my son had a medical emergency and we could not contact anyone not good. We left the property early because we couldn't mitigate the issues and now we're using the insurance to get a refund.

Stayed Dec 27, 2024We absolutely loved our stay at this property though there were a few minor issues potential renters should be aware of. The main one: You can't use the oven as there are no temperature numbers on the dial. It's a blank, black dial. We had bought a frozen pizza that we weren't able to use because we couldn't preheat the oven to the appropriate temperature. The other major complaint: The hot water tank seems to be too small for the jacuzzi tub. It took us about 4 hours to fill the tub because the hot water kept running out. Also, there was no users manual or welcome guide like I've seen at other properties with instructions on how to use things in the cabin. It took forever to figure out the TV, and we didn't figure out how to turn on the ceiling fan until our second day. Also the 10 a.m. checkout felt too early. Future renters should be aware of these details but overall we LOVED this property. The porch and river access are wonderful. The location is remote enough for privacy but convenient enough to be able to easily go into town for a meal or groceries. The bathroom is small but functional. The bed was super comfy. We had a huge rain storm during our stay, and the sound of rain on the domed rooftop was enchanting. The good outweighed the bad, and I would have given this five stars if not for the oven/hot water issues mentioned above. Would I stay here again? Absolutely. (I just would know this time around not to buy anything that needs to cook in an oven.)

Stayed Dec 29, 2024The home sits right up next to the National forest property line. Very peaceful and cozy. The bathroom is small and dated, so if that is a must for you, then this is not the place for you. For me and my partner we don’t need all the bells and whistles. Great place to relax!

Stayed Aug 31, 2024Check in process - easy Management communication - very responsive The good: The home is on dead end street and view of water is great! The grill was out of propane - maintenance came immediately. AC - great working order. Bad to some but things to consider; Online instructions state to put trash in outside container. Reached out to maintenance and was told there is no container and we could bring our trash to their office to put in dumpster or pay $25 for a pick up. Dishwasher does not get dishes clean. You’re given dish detergent but there is no stopper for sink if you want to wash by hand. We cooked all meals but there is not a spatula and lots of pans are too big for oven. Bed is extremely firm. If that’s your thing, you’ll love it. If not, you’ll hate it. Bathroom needs to be updated. It would be nice to have seating around fire pit. If you are taking a vacation to be able to sleep in, forget it - the ceiling has a huge skylight and there is no ceiling in bedroom. It’s wide open. You cross a small creek area and if you have a low profile car, it will drag. I would not recommend riding a motorcycle and the advertisement says you can. We ride and I wouldn’t do it. We did have a bear in the drive - which was awesome!

Stayed Aug 20, 2024The lodging was very good, with an indoor whirlpool tub, located at the end of a deadens lane, by a creek and surrounded by woods. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and a great week of shows and fun in Pigeon Forge.

Stayed Jul 19, 2024We loved the little round cabin at the end of the campground. We even had to cross a little stream to get to it and it borrdered the national forest! Fun fishing and sunning on the river right in the front yard. The cute, rustic cabin was perfect for our romantic getaway with the large jacuzzi tub right in the middle of the living room. Cards, music, and dinner on the wrap around porch. Couldn't have been more perfect for us. Will definitely be back.

Stayed Jun 8, 2024Absolutely gorgeous and one of the best vacations. So private The cabin is a little older but it was comfortable. The sound of the river down below all of the time was heavenly.
