Nature Experience nature in a setting that immerses you in the culture and history of the area, the sustainable and regenerative efforts to nourish the environment by the Retreat, along with all the luxuries of the modern world. This luxury alpine lodge is the pinnacle of a mountain vacation where it is secluded and adjacent to the National Park; has trails, creeks, and ponds; provides the concierge level services of a resort; and is only minutes from wineries, whitewater rafting, hiking trails, waterfalls, the railroad and downtown Bryson City (the adventure capital of the Smokies!). Sustainability & Regeneration The Retreat is also on a constant quest towards not just sustainability, but regeneration of nature. We work with wildlife rehabilitators to heal and release injured wildlife, are actively working on healing our Hemlock trees from the adelgids that are killing them, have implemented our own recycling pickup and transfer program, and also look towards adaptive reuse and consistent modifications in the properties towards better energy efficiency and use of materials. The Retreat wants to be the great national park lodge model for the next generation and is constantly marching towards the Cherokee tradition of ᎣᏍᏓ (Osda) ᎤᏃᏴᏫ (Unolvtanv) "Sacred harmony with all living things" through our own motto of “Beyond Just Right, Be Livin’ Right.” Your “3% for the Mountains” resort fee goes directly to these ongoing efforts, and we appreciate you being a part of our path forward! Privacy Every cabin on the Retreat is designed to have incredible privacy. This cabin is located at the end of its driveway perched on a hill surrounded by old growth forests and beautiful mountain views. Guest access The space is all private with guest access to the entire cabin. Beginning Spring 2026, the Retreat is moving to being the Smoky Mountains only Safari Lodge and will also have access to our main lodge, which is the centerpiece of our property providing epic views, a fitness center, guests only spa, breakfast, sundowner appetizers, entertainment, and will be the launch point of all of our many Smoky Mountain expeditions and animal safaris. Other things to note Spring 2026 (inquire for your dates), our Retreat will become more like a B&B safari lodge where we will offer adventurous, authentic, and culturally grounded experiences within the Smoky Mountains. We will have a main lodge that serves has the hub of the Retreat from which breakfast will be served along with all of our entertainment and will be the launch point for all of our guided excursions. We are very excited to bring you the Smoky Mountains first safari-styled lodge experience! Local Recommendations Walk around Bryson City. A Hallmark style town that has been featured in several movies and is a quintessential mountain basecamp town. 5-minute drive. Lots of shops and restaurants. • Our favorite winery is Deep Creek. 15-minute drive with great views. • Our favorite hangout is Bryson City Outdoors where tourists and experienced hikers gather to buy new gear and share their experiences of the day. • Our favorite restaurant is Bryson City Brewery. It has a great farm to table menu, excellent beer selection, live entertainment, and a huge yard for kids to play and be free. • Our favorite Summer hike is Deep Creek Waterfall Loop Trail. 5-minute drive. 2 mile hike with 3 epic waterfalls! If you have little ones or dont want to struggle, skip Juney Whank and all ages can do the hike to see Tom Branch Falls and Indian Creek in an out and back walk along the famous Deep Creek (stay for tubing too)! • Our favorite Winter hike is Nolands Creek Trail through the “Road to Nowhere” National Park entrance by the Retreat. The hike is beautiful down to Fontana Lake crossing several bridges and the water drop in the lake in the winter extends the hike into a lakebed valley that is beautiful with big cascades.
