The Space:
You arrive above the treetops, where the Smoky Mountains stretch endlessly in every direction and winter air sharpens the views. Mornings unfold slowly here - coffee steaming as clouds lift from the ridgelines. By evening, you settle in as the mountains fade into deep blues, fires glowing and the stillness setting in.
Vista Heights Lodge sits at the top of its mountain community, backing directly to the protected boundary of the Smoky Mountain National Park and offering uninterrupted 180-degree mountain views. The setting feels quiet and remote, yet remains within an easy drive of local towns and park access.
