The perfect culmination of natural beauty, tranquility and seclusion nestled in the heart of the Smoky Mountains. Located in Walland, Tennessee, this exclusive lodge includes 174 acres of land with old-growth hardwood forest, spring-fed mountain streams, miles of roads, and phenomenal 360-degree ridge top views. The location is so perfect that the world-renowned Blackberry Farm chose to build their world-class resort, Blackberry Mountain, across the road from this property. An unrestricted recreational paradise with limitless possibilities, this exclusive retreat has all the markings of a hidden private resort yet the ability to subdivide into multiple estate-sized homesites, if desired.
