GATLINBURG, Tennessee — Westgate Resorts, the largest privately held timeshare and vacation experience company, recently opened its newest mountaintop lodge at Westgate Smoky Mountain Resort & Water Park in Gatlinburg, Tennessee.
The new mountaintop lodge suites range from studio villas that sleep four guests to five-bedroom villas that sleep up to 20 guests each. The design team developed a refined rustic-modern aesthetic incorporating layered materials and artwork as part of a broader $26 million expansion project that brings the total room count to nearly 1,400. Floor-to-ceiling sliding doors offer guests incomparable views of the Smoky Mountain range.
“This expansion represents a meaningful reinvestment in the guest and owner experience in one of the best vacation destinations in the United States,” said Jared Saft, chief operating officer at Westgate Resorts. “This new lodge reflects how we continue to evolve the resort with thoughtful design, long-lasting materials and modern functionality while honoring what makes this destination so special to families who return year after year.”
Beyond the newly introduced mountaintop lodge suites, Westgate Smoky Mountain Resort & Water Park offers a full range of amenities. Guests enjoy access to Wild Bear Falls Water Park, a climate-controlled indoor/outdoor attraction featuring slides and a lazy river; multiple heated outdoor pools and hot tubs with mountain views; on-site dining options including the new Southern Comfort restaurant; the full-service Serenity Spa and fitness center; playgrounds and seasonal activities; and convenient shuttle access throughout the hillside property.
Located adjacent to the entrance of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Westgate Smoky Mountain Resort & Water Park is nestled into the mountains at the gateway to one of the country’s most traveled outdoor destinations.
