Everything you need to cover the Summit's other mega-lodge: a 16,000-square-foot, three-level group lodge at The Summit on Bluff Mountain in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.
Bear Necessities Lodge sleeps 20 guests in seven bedrooms with nine bathrooms across 16,000 square feet and three levels. The lodge pairs two full kitchens with a private indoor pool, sauna, theater, game room, half-court basketball court and private walking track, giving reunions and milestone groups the scale of a small private resort under one mountain roof.
Use these facts as published. Final showcase photography and the cinematic tour will be released after every photographed amenity is finished and the spring green-season shoot is complete.
Seven bedrooms: three king rooms, three queen rooms including one room with two queen beds, and a bunk room. Bed inventory is 3 kings, 4 queens and 6 twins.
Great room with floor-to-ceiling window wall and gas fireplace, two full kitchens, theater room and an expansive game room across three levels.
Private indoor pool, private sauna, in-ground hot tub, fitness center, half-court basketball and a private walking track. Outdoor spaces include covered decks, gazebo, picnic pavilion, playground, fenced yard, fire pit and mountain views.
Elevator to all three levels, high-speed internet, washer/dryer, eight parking spots plus garage access. No pets. No on-site events; community covenant applies.
Two unusually large private lodges now anchor the same Bluff Mountain community, showing how the Smoky Mountain cabin market has moved toward amenity-loaded group lodges that compete with small resorts.
Twenty people under one roof, with seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, two kitchens and multiple gathering rooms, without splitting into hotel blocks.
Indoor pool, sauna, hot tub, theater, game room, basketball and walking track let a group build its itinerary without leaving the property.
Feeding 20 people from one vacation-rental kitchen is a bottleneck. Two full kitchens let different families or generations prep, cook and gather at their own pace.
An elevator reaches all three levels, making the lodge easier for multigenerational groups. The property is not described as ADA accessible unless that standard is separately verified.
