Since opening its doors in the 1950s, this family-owned hotel has welcomed travelers with warm hospitality to the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains. Operating under the same owners until 2025, it has long been a beloved retreat for those seeking comfort and connection to nature.

Maintaining the essence of the golden age of American travel, the hotel is currently being thoughtfully modernized by its new owners (another small family business!)—introducing new amenities, luxurious comforts, and fresh design—while preserving the charm and spirit that have defined it for generations.
