About this property

Travel&Leisure mag top Glamping Spot/heated - t3. Luxury and serenity

Private outdoor shower! The ultimate glamping experience under the Smoky Mountains forest canopy! Come enjoy the Smoky's and sounds of nature from your private deck, situated on our unique ridge line. Tent 3 has a Queen size bed, indoor Russian wood stove (shut down during summer months), private shower with a small sink and a private firepit area. Relax and breakaway from everyday stresses in our tranquil, private space.

THE SPACE
Low impact is key and involves leaving sites as you find them. The tents are over 100' apart and have privacy fences around the outdoor firepit area. Our safari tents afford guests the opportunity to disconnect from the norm and connect with nature. With the exception of power and hot water in the bath house and one outlet in each tent, this is an off-grid experience. The tents mimic outside temps and are completely weatherproof. We are located high on a ridge, under a canopy of trees that provide tons of shade; because of this we are several degrees cooler than the towns below on the valley floor. Provided are lantern, flashlight, and battery pack for indoor light string and fan.
Located on private land away from the crowds of town. Your glamping tent is set on an untouched mountain top, surrounded by magnificent trees.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE & HOUSE RULES:
*We highly recommend grabbing fire starting materials and indoor/outdoor candles to enhance your nights (we provide 1 bundle of outdoor firewood).
*Quiet time is all the time, please be courteous of other guests.
*Shared bathhouse with full hot water showers, toilets and sinks
*Shared coffee station & outdoor eating space with BBQ Grills (2)
*Parking for 1 vehicle per tent
*NO WI-FI
*No animals - no exceptions!
*Do not leave trash or food in tent. Please discard all trash in bin located in the parking area.
*Please do not slam doors or honk car horns as it disturbs other guests and nature.
*Please remove shoes prior to entering tent.
*Respect nature and space.
*No unregistered guests allowed…. Please do NOT show up with extra guests (NO CHILDREN).

We are just over 12 miles from Gatlinburg and local outdoor activities such as horseback, rafting, zip lines, etc., are very nearby. Low impact is key and involves leaving the site as you find it. Our safari tents afford our guests the op

Fall Foliage Trip to the Smokies
Great location and quiet up in the mountains about 25 mins from both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. We had the tent closest to the bathroom and parking lot.
