The Space:
Water’s Edge Lodge is a boutique mountain retreat designed to be unforgettable in every season—a place where soaring log beams, river-stone accents, and refined luxury blend seamlessly with the beauty of the Smoky Mountains. Set above a beautiful natural landscape with peaceful views of the community’s catch-and-release pond, the creek below, and the mountain silhouette beyond, this one-of-a-kind three-level lodge offers the perfect balance of relaxation, adventure, and family connection. With thoughtfully designed temperature-controlled spaces and amenities throughout, guests can enjoy year-round comfort and fun in every season.
Just steps from the lodge, guests can explore the private community’s scenic nature trail—a peaceful walk of over a mile that winds alongside the creek through the forest, offering a beautiful place for morning strolls, birdwatching, or simply reconnecting with nature.
Inside, you’ll find spacious private suites, beautifully updated spa-inspired bathrooms, and a cozy entertainment lounge featuring a pinball machine, multicade arcade, pool table, oversized Smart TV, and a luxurious leather sectional—creating the perfect space to unwind after a day of exploring. The primary den suite offers an added touch of relaxation with a private jacuzzi, creating a peaceful retreat where guests can soak, recharge, and enjoy a spa-like experience from the comfort of their room. Throughout the lodge, cozy bath robes are available for guests to enjoy while relaxing indoors or transitioning between the sauna and swim spa area.
Step onto the expansive covered decks and immerse yourself in the peaceful outdoor experience. The soothing sound of flowing creek water is always present in the background as you breathe in the crisp mountain air and take in the surrounding forest views. Relax in the modern traditional sauna overlooking the forest and creek, or unwind in the relaxing swim spa with beautiful views of the community pond and the mountain silhouette beyond.
Outside, adventure continues with a rustic woodland mini golf course, a handcrafted tree-log pavilion for memorable barbecues and outdoor dining, and an enchanting temperature-controlled mini lodge playhouse tucked among the trees where kids—and the young at heart—can let their imaginations run free in comfort throughout the seasons. The community pool and playground are also within easy walking distance from the lodge, adding even more opportunities for outdoor fun. As evening falls, gather around the stone fire pit beneath a canopy of stars and create memories that will last a lifetime.
With easy year-round access, generous parking, exceptional privacy, little to no neighboring cabins crowding your views, Water’s Edge Lodge is more than a place to stay—it’s a thoughtfully curated mountain sanctuary where luxury, wellness, nature, and unforgettable family and romantic moments come together just minutes from Pigeon Forge and 20 minutes from Gatlinburg and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
