Shagbark Resort Foxfire Lodge

Nestled in the forests of the Smoky Mountain range, your cabin-style 2BR/2.5BA boasts the privacy of a woodsy retreat with the amenities of a gated resort community -- including a pool and tennis courts. Gaze out at the peaceful woodlands from one of three decks, or stretch out in the comfort of your home, appointed with new furnishings. Enjoy a rousing bout of pool in the game room, or head to the porch for an evening soak in your luxurious private hot tub. While this home is an ideal mountain getaway all year round, during the holiday season it is fully decorated and transformed into a winter wonderland. ABOUT THE CABIN The rich wood-paneled living room offers premium comfort. Furnished with brand-new sofas and a flat-screen TV, this space is movie-night ready. Bask in the warm glow of the gas fireplace on cool evenings. Whip up tasty meals in the updated kitchen, complete with a host of amenities. Savor your creations at the dining table for four, or perch at the breakfast bar with seating for three. The lower-level game room has a pool table, arcade game, and wet bar, so you can stock up on snacks and play all night long -- or take a break to gather on the sofa and watch a movie on the TV. For extra sleeping space, there is a twin daybed and a twin trundle with a half bath. Open sliding glass doors to the lower-level deck and let in the mountain breezes. Or step onto the main-level balcony to breathe in fresh morning air and take in lovely forest views. Grab your favorite book and curl up on the porch swing or sip coffee at the dining table. After a day of hiking, biking, and exploring, restful evenings await on the screened front porch. Or hop in your private hot tub for relaxing soaks. Claim the master bedroom on the lower level. Stretch out on the king bed and catch a show on the TV. The master en-suite features a double vanity, a tub/shower combination, and a large storage closet. Upstairs, the second bedroom has a king bed, TV, and en-suite bathroom with a tub/shower combination. Extras include complimentary Wi-Fi, a stackable washer/dryer, a Roku device on all TVs throughout the home, and driveway parking for two cars. THE LOCATION You won't have to travel far for outdoor fun. Float in the shared pool and enjoy a match on the tennis courts, all conveniently within your gated resort community.
