2BR Luxury Yurt w/Hot Tub in Scenic WNC Mountains

Designed specifically for couples, escape to the new luxury community of Elk Hollow, nestled in the mountains just minutes from Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Our ideal location is between two quiet subdivisions and a horse pasture. Here, instead of the hustle and bustle of crowds, you’ll be treated to the songs of birds, the soothing sounds of the nearby creek, and the chorus of frogs. Keep your eyes peeled for wild turkeys, deer, and even the occasional bear or elk, who occasionally wander outside the park’s borders.

LIVING SPACES
With a uniquely intimate setting, you and your sweetheart (and perhaps another couple) will enjoy a rare treat at our luxury yurt.

The circular shape of the room adds to its charming appeal. Curl up on the plush sofa with a cup of coffee, a snack, and the company of your loved one to chat about your adventures, or to stream the latest episode of your favorite show from the wall-mounted TV w/DirecTV and the included Wi-Fi

KITCHEN AND DINING
A fully equipped kitchen beckons the chef! This beautifully modern space offers stylish teal cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops. The pantry is chock-full of basic convenience items. There’s sure to be delicious aromas wafting throughout the home in no time!

A table for four sits in front of the window, so you can enjoy your delicious meal, the gorgeous scenery, and each other’s company.

BEDROOMS AND BATHS
Each of the two en-suite bedrooms offers a king-size bed and spacious tiled walk-in showers.

For our guests’ convenience, we also provide a full-size washer and dryer.

OUTDOOR AMENITIES
A spacious screened porch sets the tone for your stay here. Fully equipped with cooking, dining, and lounging areas, this may just become your very favorite feature of the yurt.

Enjoy a steaming cup of morning coffee, a cold afternoon glass of tea, or an evening cocktail from the comfort of one of the four cushioned chairs. Take in the serenity of the scenery, read a few pages in your book, or keep a watch out for furred or feathered neighbors.

Grill up lunch or dinner on the large gas grill and savor your feast at the picnic table. Talk about a table with a view!

The best dessert in the world are the marshmallows or s’mores you’ll roast while sitting around the firepit, maybe even trading a ghost story or two.

In the evenings, watch the stars twinkling in the sky from the warm bubbles of the hot tub. Let them work their magic on muscles tired from hiking while you sip on a glass of your favorite beverage and listen to the night sounds of these pristine surroundings.

Please note: No smoking or vaping. No pets. No parties or events. One step up to enter the yurt.
