We come hiking in the Smoky Mountain National Park about 10 to 15 times per year during the off season. Gatlinburg is too crowded and hectic in the Summer for our taste. We always stay at the Riverhouse at the Park. It is the closest Hotel to the Park and although away from the hustle and bustle of the center... More

If you have never been to Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge during a busy season, sometime find a reason to go. It is a lessen in traffic patience to rival LA rush hour. When we finally got the the Riverhouse, we were greeted with a friendly face and a perfect spot just off the main strip. It is located only about 100 yards... More

This is a wonderfully placed small hotel. The location can't be beat. We love to drive into the mountains for the day and its great not having to drive through lots of traffic to get to the park. The rooms are very large with a nice gas fireplace. There are nice balconies overlooking the water with plenty of room to... More

After reading a few reviews, I booked this place for a four-day work trip. Having stayed at many chain hotels, I've come to love quirky independent hotels. Riverhouse fit the bill. Yes, the decor is dated, but the place is so amazingly clean. Seriously clean. The room was big, as well as the balcony. Nice fireplace and large relaxing bath... More

OK, so the decor is a little dated but that's easy to overlook. This room was comfortable, clean and we were lulled into dreamland by the sound of the running river just off our balcony. The balcony with a top notch view of the fall colors was a pleasant place for a glass of wine and we felt like we... More

I'm a VERY picky person when it comes to hotels/motels, but this had so many good reviews I wanted to take the chance and I'm SO glad we did! I can't wait to stay there again. Yes, it looks like you walked into your gentle grandma's upstairs. Yes, the chairs could use recovering and the bed could use a new... More

I had to leave the roach motel I was in & looked here for another hotel. This was the first one I came to & glad I did. Rated #6 on top 10 list. Yes, the rooms are dated but HUGE for the price. We're in the mountains people so rustic is suitable. I use a mobility scooter & I... More

We chose to stay at the Riverhouse because of the location, it looked great from a distance and trip advisors rating. The check in was great. They use typewriters instead of a computer. The rooms were spacious and clean. The rooms could use a little updating but they were great. The view off the back balcony was awesome. You call... More

The Riverhouse at the Park is about avregae for the Gatlinburg area. It is an older motel near the far end of Gatlinburg strip. The rooms are very dated with dark paneling. The beds are relatively comfortable, but the pillows are flat. The staff does their best to keep this place clean. As I said it is a relatively older... More
