True 360-degree mountain views. A fantasy Hogwarts Dormitory for the kids. A 19-seat VIP movie theater. Two fully-stocked themed taverns (the Fox & Hound and the Mardi Gras Bar). Over 5,000 square feet on a private ridge-top in Wears Valley, bordering the Smoky Mountain National Park. This is Pimalai Lodge — and it is not a typical Smoky Mountain cabin.

6 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms (5 full, 2 half), and room for up to 30 guests. Reborn bigger, better, and more unforgettable after a 2020 fire, Pimalai Lodge was rebuilt specifically with large families, reunions, milestone celebrations, and multi-generational group trips in mind — a destination in itself, not just a place to sleep.

WHAT MAKES PIMALAI DIFFERENT

TRUE 360° VIEWS — Pimalai sits on top of a mountain ridge with panoramic views in every direction. One outdoor deck looks across Wears Valley to Bluff Mountain and the Smoky Mountain range. A second deck faces the National Park. Sunrises on one side, sunsets on the other. This is one of the few true 360-degree view properties in the Smokies.

HOGWARTS DORMITORY — A fantasy bedroom built specifically for kids (and the kid in every adult). Eight twin bunk beds arranged as a true Hogwarts-style dormitory, each draped in the colors of the four houses — Gryffindor red, Hufflepuff yellow, Slytherin green, Ravenclaw blue — with stone walls, house crests, and enchanted details throughout. Full bathroom attached. Kids will not want to leave.

19-SEAT VIP MOVIE THEATER — A true private cinema experience — accommodates 19, built with theater-quality picture, sound, and stadium seating. Perfect for movie nights with the whole group.

TWO THEMED TAVERNS — The Fox & Hound Tavern (upper level) is a British pub-style gaming space, complete with a classic red British phone booth, pool table, and games. The Mardi Gras Bar (ground level) is a New Orleans-inspired recreation room with wet bar, poker table, and sitting area around a gas fireplace. Both are fully equipped and feel more like private venues than anything you'd expect in a cabin.

GAMES & ENTERTAINMENT — Pool table, air hockey, foosball, shuffleboard, darts, and an upright arcade machine loaded with classic games. Multiple recreation zones across three levels so adults and kids can spread out and do their own thing.

OUTDOOR LIVING — Over 3,000 square feet of finished outdoor space. Wraparound decks, a two-story gazebo with outdoor kitchen and fireplace, a 7-person hot tub, and multiple seating areas positioned to take in views of Wears Valley, Bluff Mountain, and the Smoky Mountain range. A second outdoor deck faces the National Park — breathtaking views in every direction.

LAYOUT & SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS

MAIN LEVEL — The heart of Pimalai. A dramatic great room with floor-to-ceiling windows framing the Smokies, a mirrored gas fireplace, and a fully equipped chef's kitchen with large dining area — designed for group meals. Wraparound deck access. Two king bedrooms on this level, both with ensuite bathrooms.

UPPER LEVEL — Second recreation area, the Fox & Hound Tavern with games, and the fantasy Hogwarts Dormitory (8 twin bunk beds) with attached full bathroom.

GROUND LEVEL — The Mardi Gras Bar recreation room with wet bar, poker table, and gas fireplace; the 19-seat VIP movie theater; plus two large bedrooms (one with 2 king beds, one with 2 queen beds), both with ensuite bathrooms.

FOX & HOUND SLEEPER — Additional sleeping in the Fox & Hound Tavern: 1 twin bed, 1 double futon, and 1 sleeper sofa for overflow guests.

LOCATION & LOGISTICS

Located on a private ridge in Wears Valley near the edge of the Smoky Mountain National Park — true isolation and unmatched mountain views, while still within driving distance of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg attractions, shopping, and dining.

GETTING THERE — Accessed via mountain roads suitable for standard vehicles. Due to the ridge-top location, guests should be comfortable with mountain driving. Detailed arrival instructions are provided prior to check-in. A personal vehicle is required — attractions, dining, and outdoor activities are within driving distance. EV charging station is available on site.

**Magnolia Vacation Rentals is not liable for any disruptions, damages, or cancellations caused by acts of God or weather-related events. In accordance with health and safety regulations, all hot tubs are drained, sanitized, and refilled between guest stays. As a result, the hot tub may require additional time to reach optimal temperature and may not be fully heated the first night of your stay. All guests are required to review and sign a renter's agreement prior to check-in. We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance to protect your reservation against unexpected changes or emergencies.** For the safety of our guests and the property, this home has exterior security cameras located outside the property.
