🏕️ THE COTTAGE:
Moon River is an adorable, completely remoted riverfront cottage! The highlight of your stay is the 640 Square Feet of Indoor Living space and nearly an acre to enjoy directly on the Little River. The private outdoor pavilion is an on-the river paradise with a picnic table, kitchen sink, countertops, sitting hammock, a picnic table, and a bar (with 4 bar stools) overlooking the Little River. There is also a BBQ grill. There is an outdoor bathhouse that is convenient for guests outdoors to quickly use a separate bathroom without entering the Cottage. The bathhouse is equipped with a shower, sink, toilet, and plenty of room for changing or extra storage space for any river items or outdoor games that won't fit in the cottage.

There are two chairs on the rear porch along with a privacy wall constructed between you and the closest neighbor. This is one of the only properties on the Little River that has this much space to roam, park, and have access to so much river. It is also one of the only river properties that does not have a direct view of highway 321 on the opposite side of the river. It is a truly unique space!

In addition to the above, there is high-speed internet/Wi-Fi. The TV is a smart TV with access to Netflix and other streaming apps. There is a DVD player if you would like to bring some movies along with you. This kitchen is equipped with basic necessities. Dishes, silverware, cookware, cooking, and grilling utensils are all provided.

38th anniversary
No oven mitts. No dish rag for washing dishes. There were only 2 full size bath towels & wash cloths for 2 adults for 3 days. Commode was wobbly & not secured to the floor. Light fixtures on both porches were covered with spider webs & filled with dead insects. Firewood was bigger than the fire pit & there was no way to split it. The gas grill barely cooked hot dogs. We pulled out the couch to use outlet & there was a discarded water bottle & brochure from previous renters. The outdoor living area was what we enjoyed the most.

Great spot!
The only reason I'm giving this place a less than perfect review is because there were dirty. I mentioned them to the owner, who assured me that it would be resolved for future guests. This house is great, on a beautiful property! We really enjoyed the outdoor pavilion and swimming in the river. It's about a half hour to Cades Cove, where we saw a few bears! I definitely recommend this spot.
