New Mountain Retreat | Hot Tub, Game Room + Gatlinburg Access | Vixen Run Lodge

Welcome to Vixen Run Lodge, a refined mountain retreat where modern luxury meets the quiet beauty of the Smoky Mountains. Tucked into a private Gatlinburg community and surrounded by sweeping ridgelines, this newly built home offers a serene escape designed for elevated family getaways and unforgettable group stays.

From the moment you step inside, the views take center stage. Floor-to-ceiling windows and soaring cathedral ceilings fill the great room with natural light, framing ever-changing mountain scenery and glowing sunsets. The open-concept living area invites connection and relaxation, whether you're gathering for conversation, enjoying a cozy movie night, or simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings from the comfort of the sofa.

The home's spacious layout spans nearly 4,000 square feet and includes five well-appointed bedrooms plus a bonus loft with bunk beds—perfect for kids or extra guests. The loft also features a sitting area and TV, creating a flexible space for lounging or play. Throughout the home, bedrooms and living spaces are thoughtfully positioned to capture stunning mountain views, so you're never far from the scenery that makes the Smokies so special.

Downstairs, the entertainment continues in the finished basement, where you'll find plush seating, a pool table, a multicade arcade game, board games, and a large TV—ideal for game nights or laid-back afternoons after a day of exploring. Step outside to the covered porch and unwind in the hot tub under the stars, where crisp mountain air and tranquil surroundings set the tone for true relaxation.

As part of a private community, guests also enjoy access to shared amenities, including tennis courts, a nearby golf course, and a seasonal pool open from May through September—adding resort-style options to your mountain stay.

Located just minutes from the heart of Gatlinburg, Vixen Run Lodge offers easy access to the area's top attractions. Spend your days exploring Great Smoky Mountains National Park, teeing off at local golf courses, strolling through downtown Gatlinburg, or venturing to Pigeon Forge for dining, shopping, and family-friendly entertainment. At the end of the day, return to a quiet hillside setting that feels worlds away.

Vixen Run Lodge delivers a rare combination of new construction, upscale comfort, panoramic views, and prime Smoky Mountain access—an elevated escape designed to make every moment feel special.
