Awesome cabin with a great location. We loved being a little further up the mountain and away from town. The cabin had plenty of room for our family of five. We had another family of four come over one night to watch football and cook burgers and it never felt crowded. I would highly recommend staying at "Rocky Top Rio", you will not be disappointed!
Loved the property and the cabin ..
My only issue is the property is best for 6 people and not 8..
The pull out couch is in the utility room with the water heater so it’s not very quiet and the pull out bed is extremely uncomfortable for 2 people .. besides the utility room/ bedroom it is a great place to stay ..
I grew up going to Red River and have stayed in many different places. This cabin is my favorite. If you don’t mind being outside of town, which is only about 10 minutes out, this is the perfect place. It’s breathtaking, serene and fit our family of 5 (6 including our dog). The drive is gorgeous. The backyard is private, even with neighbors around, you don’t really see others. It’s very calm and peaceful without much traffic, which is an advantage of staying outside the town. I highly recommend.
Rocky Top Rio was a great cabin. It was cozy and clean. We enjoyed having the windows open at night listening to the river flow. We really enjoyed our stay there, and would do so again.
We gad a nice weekend with family. Beautiful location, easy for the grandparents to walk around near the river. The kids loved it! Kitchen was well stocked. Thank you for hosting us!
A lovely home. The king bed was comfortable, but the other beds not so much. Kitchen was pretty well stocked for cooking meals. Really enjoyed the hummingbirds on the back porch. Of course the best aspect of this house is the location on the river. Kept the 6 year old entertained for hours and we even caught a couple of fish!
This property is absolutely beautiful inside and out! The river runs right off of the deck in the back. So peaceful and calm. Our family loved it and would stay there again.
We loved our stay at this beautiful cabin. It was spacious, clean, and in the perfect location. Close to town but it felt like you were in your own world due to the privacy. We will definitely be back!
We had a great time! The house was exactly what we were looking for. We had plenty of room for 7 adults and a baby. The Christmas tree and decorated fireplace mantle made us feel like we were at home.
The Cabin is beautiful and set in a gorgeous location. They actually set up a Christmas tree for us and because we were getting in very late, lights were on and tree lite. Wonderful week here.
We loved everything about Rocky Top Rio! Everything worked great and the location was fantastic. To top it off, it snowed several inches while we were there. Absolutely beautiful! Mr. Newton himself brought us firewood and we loved the fireplace. Christie at Swan Realty was great at answering all of our questions during our stay. We will definitely be back!
