Dogwood Lodge: A 3-Bedroom 1800s Log Lodge That Survived the Fire

A Real Antique Log Home, Spared by the Fire

Dogwood Lodge is a genuine 1800s hand-hewn log home — not a modern build finished to look historic. It sits inside Timberidge, a deed-restricted community where only authentic log cabins are permitted, in a lush, mature forest that was famously spared by the 2016 Gatlinburg wildfires. The result is a level of seclusion and wildlife you won't find anywhere else in the Smokies — bears, turkeys, and deer are regular visitors to the wrap-around porch.

Built for Families and Groups

Three Real Bedrooms

An upstairs master suite with its own gas fireplace and King bed, a second King suite on the main level, and a third bedroom — enough space for everyone to actually rest, not just sleep in shifts.

Two Fireplaces, One Story to Tell

A gas fireplace in the main living area and a second in the upstairs suite. Built for slow evenings and the kind of stories that only come out around a fire.

A Kitchen Built for Real Family Dinners

A fully equipped chef's kitchen and full-size washer/dryer mean Dogwood Lodge works as a real home base for a week, not just a place to crash.
