About this property

Birch Lodge by AvantStay | Indoor Pool, Theater, Game Room & Stunning Views!

Built into the side of a mountain and boasting stunning views of the forest scenery, Birch Lodge offers a mountain retreat like no other. This incredible cabin boasts three stories and a fourth-story loft, accommodating up to 11 guests.

Step inside to an open floor plan on the main level, where vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light. The living area exudes an elevated cozy ambiance, with comfortable leather couches and a grand stone fireplace. It is uniquely designed with rustic accents and elements of nature, like an antler chandelier and a tree trunk stretching through the third story and loft. With five bedrooms, there's plenty of space for everyone to rest and recharge.

Entertainment abounds with fun for all ages at Birch Lodge! A game room features a pool table and arcade games, inviting a bit of friendly competition. The theater room is equipped with a large flat-screen TV and movie theater seats for the ultimate cinematic experience. But the real highlight? An indoor pool and hot tub, creating an oasis within your mountain cabin retreat.

Those looking to unwind will find sanctuary in the sauna. Relaxation continues outside, where three spacious decks each offer ample seating for the group to spread out and enjoy the fresh mountain air. Opt for a hanging egg chair or bench swing for the perfect leisurely afternoon with your favorite book.

Just a few minutes from the heart of Gatlinburg, there’s so much to explore outside of your mountain escape. Whether you're seeking adventure or relaxation, Birch Lodge has everything you need for an unforgettable Smoky Mountain getaway!

Beautiful property- opportunity for improvement

We stayed at this property with our two daughters (7 & 1) Brother and his wife and child (3). The house is beautiful. Kids had fun in the pool and the porches were great to hang out on in the afternoons. We primarily booked for the indoor pool and after some frustrating communication on the front end about the necessity of heating the pool, we decided to pay for that service. The pool was very comfortable. My biggest complaint is that there were no shades or window coverings in the upstairs bedrooms. These windows look out directly on the street with a bright street light that shines in the windows at night and anyone driving by could see right into the window. It looks like daylight at night and you couldn’t change clothes in those rooms as anyone outside can see directly in (ie the construction workers right across the street). This seems like a big oversight. Otherwise, the house is beautiful with a great location close to downtown Gatlinburg.
