Thanksgiving is a time to reconnect with loved ones and give thanks. In the Smokies, it’s easy to do both! When surrounding yourself with the beauty of nature, giving thanks comes naturally; the mountains are also an amazing place to spend time with your friends and family—and autumn in the Smokies is the most beautiful time to visit. Your relationships will thrive in this environment; the Smokies are the perfect spot to make memories, enjoy great conversation, and spend quality time with your loved ones! So, why not spend Thanksgiving with us at Treehouse Grove?
Experience Thanksgiving in Gatlinburg at Treehouse Grove
Treehouse Grove is a luxury treehouse resort located in the Smoky Mountains, yet it is only a few miles from downtown Gatlinburg, TN, where you’ll find fun for the whole family—furry friends included! (Yes, we’re pet-friendly!) Our treehouse rentals range from 2-4 bedrooms, and our largest treehouse sleeps 10 guests, so you can rest assured that your group will be comfortably situated in a size-appropriate treehouse—or, in more than one treehouse through our group bookings.
