Located in the Great Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee, Blackberry Farm and Blackberry Mountain have set the precedent for luxurious country escapes. Seamlessly blending nature, wellness and hospitality, it’s no wonder these sister properties have garnered exceptional attention. While the properties vary aesthetically—Blackberry Farm offering a charming yet elegant southern country estate ambiance and Blackberry Mountain contrasting with a more modern, rustic-chic design—their extreme attention to detail, abundance of activities and genuinely dedicated staff are what make them truly unique. Encouraging guests to choose their own adventure, Blackberry Farm and Blackberry Mountain are the perfect destinations for couples, friends and families alike seeking an unrivaled experience in outdoor adventure, wellness pampering, gourmet dining and luxurious Southern hospitality.
