Bob and Cindy Hosford own and manage the Dreamcatcher Cabin and Tanasi Lodge. We pay personal attention and add amenities both inside and outside the properties to provide extra touches not found when not personally managed. We are available full time to provide information on hiking trails, shopping, events, and some discount tickets. The grounds have beautiful flower beds. The most unique aspect of the cabin and lodge is that there is an incredible view of the mountains from both the front AND the rear of the houses.

Tanasi Lodge was the ideal location for our family reunion/wedding. Tanasi offered something for our four generational family as well as a beautiful setting for our small wedding. The pool table, video games, and hot tub were enjoyed by all, in addition to the fireplace and big screen TV's. Cindy and Bob were willing to do whatever we needed to help with the wedding, including carrying chairs, arranging flowers, and just in general being gracious hosts to our whole family. If you want a place for your family to gather for either a special event or just a beautiful place to relax with special people, Tanasi is the place to be. And it was so fabulous, we have already scheduled our second reunion for our family!

Our family of 18 spent the weekend at Tanasi Lodge. It is a beautiful home with "the best views" in the Smokies. From the youngest to the oldest , there was something for all of us to enjoy. The lodge is very well equiped even down to spices. Our husbands especially liked the outdoor fire pit, supplying us with :s-mores. Thanks for a mothers day to remember!!! Sincerely, Happy Mother
Owner response:We thank you all for coming to our mountain top! i am so glad you all enjoyed the beautiful sunrises, and sunsets over the mountains. Also we are so very glad you enjoyed our new Wear's Valley Dakota Jack's wonderful barbecue. Their catering of barbecue dinners at Tanasi Lodge is bound to be a new tradition. We would love to have you spend Mother's Day every year at the Lodge. Thanks for coming and we hope to see you soon. Bob and Cindy Hosford

We have stayed at Tanasi for three consecutive years for our family Christmas in January. The house is functional, accomodating and I could go on and on! It is large enough for privacy, yet personal enough for get togethers. We "older" siblings just hang out in our lounge clothes and play Rook for 3 days. Our kids like to go into town for 1 day, but it is close enough to do that. We just returned and there was about 12 inches of snow and it was absolutely beautiful! We would highly recommend Tanasi for any type of gathering that you might have.
Owner response:Thanks so very much for visiting Tanasi. We love having you. Our return visitors become family and we look forward to seeing them again every year, or whenever they return. Many guests have said they feel the Lodge and Dreamcatcher are always there waiting for their return - and welcome them every time!

I hosted a 3 day Sales Retreat at the Tanasi Lodge. This lodge was absolutely outstanding for business and personal visits. I had a group of 3 ladies and 8 men and everyone enjoyed their time at the lodge. The views are incredible. The accomondations are world class. The owners are world class. I would highly recommend this location to any large family event and/or corporate retreat.

My family just came back from the Tanasi Lodge and it was a wonderful experience. The lodge accomodated my entire family with ease. The layout of the home was spectacular as everyone had privacy. The views from the lodge are simply amazing and totally awesome. The owners Cindy and Bob are great and wonderful people. My family rented a charter bus to travel to the lodge and there was no possible way the bus would be able to travel up the mountain. Cindy and Bob assisted in transporting our luggage and family members to the lodge. Bob even gave my father driving lessons to ensure that we knew how to drive up the driveway. (Don't worry its not that bad!) The Tanasi Lodge is a wonderful place for a large group. It has allowed my family to have several memories that will last a life time.

The Parmer family spent a weekend at the Tanasi Lodge and had a great time. The Lodge is beautiful, the scenery is a 360 degree view, the landscaping w/the waterfall is well done. There was plenty of room for all 33 of us (ages 4 months to 69 years). Everyone mostly spent all the time at the lodge because they just did't want to leave. Thanks, Cindy and Bob for sharing this place with us. we could tell how much you loved it too!!!!!! The Bobby Parmer Family

Our family has been gathering for a Gatlinburg weekend for at least 8 years. This year 27 family members had the time of our life at Tanasi Lodge! The lodge was the perfect place for our group ranging in age from toddler to senior adult. We enjoyed several meals in the fabulous kitchen, lounged in the hot tub, kids and teens loved the pool table and games downstairs, watched the best Super Bowl game ever (go GIANTS!), and marveled at the beautiful views from every point in the lodge. Cindy is a wonderful hostess and we are already planning our visit next year!

We held our annual family reunion in the Tanasi Lodge this year August 2007. What a beautiful comfortable place, with every amenity we could want. The views are spectacular, and the grounds lush and lovely. Rooms are very comfortable. We like to do our own cooking and we found everything needed for that. Also used the outdoor charcoal grill for browning our beef tenderloins before putting them in the oven. Yum!

What an amazing house!! We held our family reunion here from July 30-August 4, 2007. The house if perfectly set up to accomodate families due to the layout and number of bathrooms. We loved watching the sunrises and sunsets from the opposite sides of the house. We can't thank the owners enough for offering such a deluxe accomodation for our reunion. Highlights included our campfire sing-alongs, evening meals, hot tub therapy, eating ice cream sundaes while watching the sunset and watching "300" on the big screen TV.

The last week in June "07 we rented the Tanasi Lodge for our family reunion and could not have found a better place. I cannot say enough nice things about the Lodge. The cleanliness of the lodge far surpassed any expections that I could have. It is so tastefully decorated that it was a pleasure spending time in the lodge. The views from all sides of the lodge are spectacular. Most of all the hosts of the Tamasi Lodge, Bob and Cindy, are a very accommodating and a pleasure to work with. Everyone in our party would like to return to the Tamasi Lodge next year.
