About Riverstone Resort & Spa

Looking for luxury without losing that family-friendly Smoky Mountain vibe?

The resort's 1-4 bedroom condos give you plenty of space to spread out, with full kitchens that help manage meal costs during longer stays. Each unit features a private balcony, many overlooking the adjacent golf course.

Kids gravitate to the outdoor lazy river during warm months, while the 24-hour indoor heated pool means swimming doesn't stop when weather turns cool. The on-site spa offers a full menu of massages and treatments - perfect for unwinding after a day at nearby Dollywood, which is just a mile away.

The location puts you right in the heart of Pigeon Forge's attractions while maintaining a quieter, more peaceful atmosphere than properties directly on the Parkway. You're just minutes from dinner shows, shopping, and restaurants, but the resort grounds feel removed from the tourist bustle.
