Escape to Douglas Lake: The Ultimate Cozy Winter Secret
As the leaves fall and the crisp winter air settles over the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, something magical happens at Douglas Lake. The summer crowds disperse, the water turns glassy and still, and the entire area transforms into the ultimate peaceful retreat.
If you’ve only experienced the Smokies during the peak of summer, you’re missing out. Here is why an off-season stay at one of our Douglas Lake cabins is the perfect fall and winter escape.
The Quiet Beauty of the Lake
In winter, workers with TVA draw down the lake, revealing a completely different landscape. It’s the perfect time for long, quiet walks along the shoreline, bird watching, or simply enjoying a cup of coffee on the deck while the morning mist rolls off the water. Some of our cabins have water year round. Please inquire on our website with any questions you may have.
World-Class Fishing Without the Crowds
Anglers know that Douglas Lake is a premier destination for bass and crappie, and the winter months are no exception. With fewer boats on the water, you’ll have the best fishing spots all to yourself. Please check the TVA website for details on where to purchase fishing license and other information.
Additionally, Cozy Cabin Evenings.
After a day of exploring, there’s nothing better than returning to a warm, cozy cabin. Whether you’re soaking in the hot tub under a sky full of stars, or curling up by the fireplace with a good book, our year round cabins are designed for ultimate relaxation.
Easy Access to the Great Smoky Mountains
Guests can reach the park quickly from our cabins. They can also enjoy the action in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Fall and Winter are some of the best times to hike, as the leaves change and the bare trees open up long-range views of the mountains that you can’t see during the summer.
