Crestview Lodge

The mountain skylines are always in view through dreamy, large windows while dining, playing in the rec room, and spending time together by the stone fireplace in this majestic 11-bedroom lodge with space for up 48 guests. Crestview Lodge is perfect for your next family reunion, youth group retreat, lodgings during your athletic tournament at Rocky Top Sports World, or scouts’ trip during the Spring Wildflower Pilgrimage or Wilderness Wildlife Week.

Kids and teens will love the log bunk beds throughout the cabin – it’s like a giant sleepover! Parents and family will love the cozy interiors with stunning mountain views, large fully loaded kitchen with double the appliances, and spacious dining area with multiple tables where everyone can dine together during holiday gatherings and reunions. Handicap features allow those with mobility issues to enjoy their mountain cabin trip without any hassle with a flat driveway, wide ramp to the wrap-around deck, and spacious common rooms with unobstructed walkways.

Under 10 miles from Pigeon Forge but secluded among the Smoky Mountain forestry, your stay in Crestview Lodge boasts the best of both worlds. Enjoy quiet evenings in the hot tub, swaying in the rocking chairs, and sipping wine while leaning on the deck railings, watching as the orange and mauve light of the sunset sinks behind the mountain skyline, giving way to expansive, uninterrupted starry skies. After an exciting day of whitewater rafting on the class III and IV rapids of the Pigeon River, return to the cabin for a cookout with sizzling burgers and hot dogs hot off the charcoal grill.

Kids and adults can stay entertained in between excursions in the rec room, playing arcade games, pinball, shuffleboard, and foosball while your favorite teams play on the big screen TV and mountain views rest in the distance. Screen movies in the theater room complete with homemade popcorn to devour while sunk into the plush reclining sofas tiered to give everyone a clear viewing. So much space and such big skies, Crestview Lodge is your way to stay relaxed, entertained, and close to all the fun of downtown Pigeon Forge.

Living Room
Take time to slow down in the afternoons and relish in time well spent with loved ones while gathered around the impressive stone fireplace and sipping on glasses of sweet tea or local wine from your tour through Smoky Mountain Winery. There's also a new TV here, so you can hang out and watch movies. On cool evenings in the Smoky Mountains, flick on the gas fireplace (no hassle of buying firewood!), and get cozy with a good book in the oversized leather chair. Adjacent to this living room is a second seating area with ample plush seating and large coffee table, perfect for setting up a bowl with snacks or a drawing bucket for a hilarious game of charades. Sneak in a good nap in the warm sunlight drifting in through the large windows flanking the room before heading to one of the 10 bathrooms to primp for dinner at The Peddler Steakhouse.

Kitchen
Natural wood tones, stainless steel appliances, and large, open walkways are accentuated by natural light from more large windows overlooking majestic mountain skylines. Preparing large holiday dinners, hearty breakfasts before group hikes, and bountiful self-serve buffets is made substantially easier with double the appliances!

The spacious countertops and breakfast bar provide all the surface area necessary for multiple cooks to cut veggies, roll dough, mix sauces, and more. Provide both regular and decaf coffee in the mornings from the 2 coffeemakers or pour pre-cut frozen fruit into the blenders for delicious breakfast smoothies. After your tour on the Rocky Top Wine Trail, store chilled wines in the convenient wine cooler to save room for sweets from The Fudgery in the refrigerators.

Dining Room
Crestview Lodge’s dining room is perfect for your large group to dine together! Mingle amongst the tables while getting seconds from the dishes situated on the convenient built-in counter. When everyone finally takes their seats and begin to dig in, converse, and laugh, the double ceiling fans help keep the room comfortably cool during family dinners, holiday gatherings, and post-wedding celebrations. The open-concept common rooms allow you to move tables for specific events, spread out among the kitchen, dining room, and living areas, and avoid cramped spaces even with a full cabin!  

Bedrooms
Gorgeous Smoky Mountain views, cozy log beds, and spacious carpeted floors await guests in Crestview Lodge’s 11 bedrooms. Getting ready for nights out on the town and getting to the LeConte Center in the mornings during your convention is made easier with 10 full bathrooms in the cabin. Enjoy the ability to adjust the A/C unit in your room to create the most comfortable atmosphere to nap or unwind at the end of the night. Plug in electronics next to bedside tables and drift into restful slumber in the soft light of the lamp while reading. 

Lots of updates have been made to this spacious cabin, including converting the old theater room to bedrooms with king beds and twin bunks. On the second floor, new changes include:
Bedroom 1 - 2 twin bunks and a queen
Bedroom 2 - 1 king bed accessible through bunk room
Bedroom 3 - 2 twin bunks
Bedroom 4 - 1 king bed accessible through bunk room

In all, the cabin offers space for 48 guests to sleep, with 8 king beds, 14 twin bunks, and 1 queen-over-queen bunk bed.

Rec Room
Crestview Lodge’s rec room is packed with ways to play, hang out, and have fun without leaving the cabin! Host your own pool tournament for a fun competition or play a few rounds of poker at the card table on laid-back evenings after the kids have gone to bed. Your little ones can stay up and join the fun, too, and play arcade games, pinball, and air hockey! Watch your favorite team compete on the big screen TV while seated on the cushy sofas or keep up with the score while playing a few rounds of 8-ball on the pool table with friends, sipping sodas and tossing back chips from the snack table.

Theater Room
Need the perfect distraction for the kids on a rainy afternoon or while parents hang out in the hot tub? Your cabin’s theater room is all set for a fun theater experience in the comfort of the cabin! Pop some popcorn and put drinks in the cup holders after picking out a movie from the cabin’s library or unpacking your favorite DVDs from home. The large mounted flatscreen TV and tiered seating create clear viewing for everyone while each suede sofa seat can recline and armrests lift up for the perfect spot to store movie snacks!

Outdoor Amenities
Start your mornings with coffee on the wrap-around deck while studying the soul-stirring views of the mountains from the rocking chairs to begin your day with real peace of mind. Unwind in the steamy waters of the outdoor hot tub while soaking in the extravagant, colorful dusk display over the mountain horizons as the stars slowly appear in the waxing evening sky.

Use the spacious deck to play fun outdoor games from home like cornhole and ladders while burgers sizzle on the charcoal grill during a cabin cookout. A new firepit will be the perfect place to make s'mores and chat late into the night!
