Serene Douglas Lake Villa: Family Perfect, Near Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg

Welcome to Smoky Mountain Villas, where our 6 Bedroom Villa offers an unmatched blend of exquisite elegance and home-like comfort, set against the panoramic backdrop of Douglas Lake's main channel. This sprawling luxury villa, situated on a serene 28-acre estate near the Great Smoky Mountain National Forest, presents an ideal retreat for family and friends with a capacity to comfortably accommodate up to 16 guests.

As you enter through the majestic front door, the stunning floor-to-ceiling windows in the grand living or great room offers a breathtaking view of Douglas Lake, creating an immediate sense of tranquility. Here, the space is anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace, surrounded by plush seating, perfect for gathering and making cherished memories. Each component in the villa emphasizes luxurious comfort merged with sophisticated style.

On the main floor, the master suite is an oasis of relaxation featuring a king size bed, a 40" flat screen HD television, and private patio doors that open to the main balcony, offering enchanting lake views. The en-suite master bathroom is equipped with both a jacuzzi tub and a separate shower, catering to all desires for rest and rejuvenation.

Adjacent to the grand room is a gourmet full kitchen and dining area. Our kitchen is thoroughly equipped to meet your culinary needs, featuring modern appliances such as an oven, coffee maker, and toaster, as well as essential cooking and dining utensils. This area makes home cooking a delightful experience while on vacation.

The villa expands into three levels; the upper level houses two additional guest rooms, each boasting scenic views, lavish bedding, flat-screen televisions, and en-suite bathrooms. The lower level of the villa reveals an ultimate entertainment area with a bar, foosball table, and a 60" UHDTV, ensuring endless entertainment options. Three more bedrooms on this floor make the villa spacious enough to host large families or groups.

Outdoors, step into the vibrant natural beauty of Douglas Lake. Our comprehensive lake adventure options include free access for guests to paddle boards, kayaks, and fishing gear. The dock area is not only perfect for boating but also offers a serene spot for swimming.

Additional on-site amenities enhance your stay, including a seasonal outdoor pool, a hot tub, and a cozy fire pit area, ideal for evenings spent roasting s'mores under the stars.

Whether it's hiking in the nearby national park, enjoying lake activities, or simply relaxing by the fire pit, Smoky Mountain Villas offers something for everyone.

Douglas Lake is a reservoir, so water levels fluctuate throughout the year. We are located on the main channel so we always have water, however there are periods of time where access to the water is limited. Kayaks and paddle boards are unavailable in the Winter months.

The pool and hot tub are open from Memorial Weekend to September 14th. They are open from 9am- dusk daily.

Across from the pool area is the fire pit, perfect for gathering the family and roasting s'mores! wood is stocked in a rack next to the fire pit for easy access for guests.

Our dock has 4 slips for boats. The slips will hold up to 24' boats, they can be reserved for $30/day. Please let us know if you would like to reserve a slip ahead of time to guarantee availability.

Getaway

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Lodge! It was beautiful, clean, and the owner was responsive and polite! Plenty of space to get together and eat, enjoy the view, or hangout in the den. Location wise - it’s a bit off the beaten path, but we were still less than an hour drive from most major tourist attractions.

Beautiful home and location

This home was just beautiful. There are 12 of us ranging in age from 2 to 65. The golf cart made our trips to the lake and pool easy. The villas on the property were being used as well with folks from Ohio and TX and we all share the dock and pool just fine and we met new friends. Our only negative was that the activities for the kids were further away than the milage leads you to believe because of the winding 2-lane roads. All in all this was a great vacation! Our 10th year of celebrating our summers together.

The Lodge

First I want to say WOW. I have stayed at many VRBO units over the years. We select an annual site for our Family reunion late in the fall for the next year. We do a lot of research before we make the final selection. We have to select a house big enough for 6 families and children. I have rarely been disappointed and usually my choices are all close to a perfect match. I can usually judge if the unit is good as soon as I walk in the door. This unit was as close to perfect as you can get. When you walk into the unit, you see that big wall of glass with the balcony looking down on the lake behind- PERFECT. I do not think I even unpacked. I grabbed a glass of wine and sat on the balcony - Just looking at the view. A bathroom in every bedroom also made everyone happy. You could not make it any better. Then add the pool, the lake, the Kayaks and paddleboards. Even the children were happy. To top it off Pigeon Forge was very close. NOTE: At our Family reunions we like to eat together. I am always surprised that a house that can sleep 16 has a dining table for only 10. A minor negative.

Our stay at the lodge was perfect. The house is so spacious that our family of 12 had plenty of space. We so enjoyed the free kayaks and other water toys! It is a stunning lake with lots to do close by. Make sure you rent the golf cart as the hill to the house is a tough one to walk.

Perfect get away for multi family vacation. The cabin had plenty of bedrooms for everyone, with each bedroom with thier own private bathroom. Lake is huge, giving everyone plenty of room to do thier boating, tubing, fishing or jet ski's. Boat dock was nice, and could do fishing from the dock.Property also provided kayaks for renters use, which the grandkids enjoyed. Great place and would rent again.
