This custom-designed mountain retreat reflects the rugged grandeur of the great Smoky Mountains with 2 fireplaces built of local stone and huge hand-crafted timbers supporting the peak of the vaulted great room. Features like the mantle beam, hewn by hand for a barn a century ago, and rustic Tennessee barn wood walls honor the mountain skills of the past. Each of the Lodge’s 6 luxury king suites offers breathtaking mountain views , private tiled bath, 50” Smart HDTV, and was designed with its own unique feature-from a custom-timbered window seat or rustic Aspen log bed to a private balcony- so that every guest can claim to have the best room in the house. Each level of the refined-rustic lodge has 2 generous suites, separated by the central common areas, providing a sense of privacy , making Blackstone Lodge the perfect venue for groups of adults. With its 3 levels of covered porches, grand gathering spaces, fully-outfitted games room, state-of-the-art theater, quiet nooks and private suites, Blackstone Lodge provides a gracious balance of opportunities to revel in the majesty of the Great Smoky Mountains.

Family spring break

This is a beautiful property that we enjoyed to its fullest. The private community provides seclusion and a perfect view of the Smokies. Close access to area attractions were perfect for our family to enjoy. The owners were incredibly hospitable and helpful with quick responses if needed. We cannot wait to visit again.

Perfect Home for a Family Reunion

Blackstone Lodge was the perfect spot for our family reunion. My husband is one of 8 siblings that gathered for this beautiful fall vacation in Sevierville. There were 13 of us altogether. The lodge is fantastic. It was very clean, and had everything that we needed. The large porch spaces were perfect for gathering together to enjoy the stunning views. We had some gorgeous sunrises and sunsets. The property manager, Gary was very friendly and helpful and always responded quickly to any question. The lodge is close to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.

Perfection

We stayed 4 nights at Blackstone Lodge for our family vacation that consisted of my husband and I, our 2 grown daughters, son-n-law, 2 granddaughters (ages 2 and 7) and my sister-n-law. Blackstone Lodge completely exceeded our expectations. The view of the mountains from the cabin were absolutely breathtaking. The theater room was a BIG plus. We watched the Texas Longhorns WIN on Saturday and the Dallas Cowboys WIN on Sunday. I was really hoping to see a bear while we were there, but we never did. We all had a spectacular time, and I highly recommend staying here if you are looking to book the perfect home for your vacation.

Our sibling reunion couldn't have been held at a better home. The property is spacious with plenty of gathering room. Outdoor deck is amazing. Kitchen is well equipped and perfect for in-home meals.

Amazing place. Great location.

This place was incredible. All you could want in a rental house- fantastic location, rooms were spacious, beds were comfortable, great kitchen and nice big areas to hang out and connect with friends/family. The views were beyond amazing. We spent many hours just sitting in rocking chairs on the back deck enjoying the view (which is better than most of the views from the best hikes in the Smokies). It's clear that Gary and Jennifer care about the house and the people that rent it. They are super helpful and responsive. 100% recommend staying here.

Absolutely Perfect!

The overall space of this property, large bedrooms with their own ensuites, ample seating on the deck, room to easily navigate around the kitchen island and not bump into one another, and most importantly the dining table that easily seated all 12 of us every evening where we could listen & tell the adventures of our day. We all enjoyed the game room & hot tub, steaks on the grill, and certainly the gorgeous views. We did see a beautiful bear pass through - fun for all! Communication from the owner, Gary, was great. We couldn't have asked for anything more from the house or our experience there - it really was absolutely perfect!

Spectacular mountain view

Upon entering the front door you were WOWed with the spectacular view of the Smoky Mountain Range that continuously changed throughout the day. It was very relaxing & comfortable. We were fine just staying there, we did do a few things a couple of hikes, a cavern, pigeon forge for 1/2 a day, the Old mill for lunch & a morning of antiquing & Cherokee for a day, but really we just liked hanging out at the house, creating memories with great friends & enjoying the nature all around us.

AMAZING!!!

Our family of 14 which spanned 4 generations, spent the week of Thanksgiving 2023 in this beautiful house. The views were spectacular, especially the window seat on the top floor overlooking the town. We had plenty of room and all of the bedrooms and bathrooms were big and clean. The kitchen was awesome and the dining table fit all of us! The game room and theater room were great as well. The switches were labeled so there was no guessing which light turned on (never stayed in a house with this but it was awesome). And surprisingly we loved the fact there was no TV in the main living room, nice to gather around the fireplace and talk. We also loved there were coffee stations on every floor! We have stayed in many cabins in Pigeon Forge but this house was hands down our favorite! The kids really enjoyed the hot tub and the games. We even had a bear visit us when we were at the fire pit while we were doing s’mores. Apparently he enjoyed the s’mores because he showed up again the next day on the front porch. It was exciting to finally see a bear even though he got a little too close. Gary was the best host, very informative and communicated very well and answered all questions we had. We had a great time staying here and hope to return again. This house is perfect for a large group and we highly recommend it. It was the perfect week and we will cherish the wonderful memories made.

Perfect for large families

We loved so many things about this mountain home that are really hard to find. First, this is not your typical TN cabin rental. It was so modern and luxurious while still having the cabin feel you expect in the Smokey Mountains. The craftsmanship was just beautiful. The bedrooms were all well appointed and spread out for privacy with two large master bedroom suites on each of the three levels. It’s extremely rare to find all master suites so that no one has to share a bathroom. We appreciated that the main level living room /great room didn’t have a TV. We spent a ton of quality time in this gathering space which was also close to the kitchen and dining area where we enjoyed all of our meals together at a table that fit us all. Some of us taking in the peaceful view and quiet time and others playing cards around the table. The outdoor space had very adequate seating for large families and groups. The lower level kept all of the younger ones entertained with pool table, tv, hot tub and an amazing theater room for all. We got to witness a mama bear and her three baby cubs pass by the side of the home on day one. What a way to start off our stay! Gary was the best host, very communicative, He really cares about his home and the people who visit it. The community itself was also so impressive! As you drive up the mountain, you pass so many other exquisite homes, all of them built so unique. The roads were wide and paved. This place by far is our favorite one yet! We’ll be back!

About the host

Hosted by Gary Pickens

Host profile image
Lifelong Tennesseans, we have always had a special love for the Smoky Mountains. Jennifer grew up in middle Tennessee and built strong memories and traditions vacationing in Gatlinburg every summer. Gary graduated from UT Knoxville and has called East Tennessee "God's Country" ever since.

With three grown and married children and 10 grandchildren living in 3 different states, we built Blackstone Lodge to create a mountain retreat where our growing family can gather and build our own traditions. But we designed the lodge from the ground up with the goal to provide the highest quality vacation experience for our guests.

The mountains always inspire us and declare the glory of their Creator. We are honored to be able to share them with all our guests at Blackstone Lodge.
