# Glamping In The Great Smoky Mountains Should Be Your Next Guys Trip *By James Hills, mantripping.com — Updated May 2026* Most guys have a Smoky Mountains trip on the someday list - the motorcycle ride down Tail of the Dragon, the rainbow trout chase, the cabin weekend with no cell service. The Smokies have enough on the list that a group trip there is basically inevitable. The question is where you sleep when you get there, and after years of either splurging on a Pigeon Forge cabin that sleeps twelve or roughing it on the ground at a campsite, I've landed on a third option that beats both: glamping. ** Questions** ** No answer selected.

Some properties throw in a hot tub or a fire pit per unit. The good ones include access to communal stuff - pool, camp store, on-site food. I'm past the days of sleeping on a cot in a sleeping bag and waking up with a stiff neck. If your crew is too, this is the lane. ## Roamstead - The Easy Pick The property I keep coming back to recommending is [Roamstead](https://www.roamstead.com/), in Cosby, Tennessee. It opened in 2023 and sits at 4946 Hooper Highway, which puts it almost exactly between the Cosby and Greenbrier entrances to the park - about 25 minutes from the Gatlinburg-side entrance if your group wants to do a night in town. What makes it work for a [guys trip](https://www.mantripping.com/guys-trip.html) is the variety. You can mix and match accommodations within the same property, which solves the perennial problem of one guy who insists on his own space: - **Cabins (5 floor plans):** Hemlock sleeps 7 (the group cabin), Maple and Oak sleep 4, Spruce and Pine sleep 2 - **Yurts:** 9 of them, including a yurt-with-bunk option for an extra sleeper - **Safari tents** for the guys who want closer to "actual camping" without giving up the bed - **Lodge rooms** (hotel-style, 2-3 person) - **A vintage Airstream** if someone in the group wants the Instagram shot Pricing as of early 2026: yurts and lodge rooms start around $104/night, the Pine cabin runs $138, and the bigger Maple and Oak cabins are $162. For a group of six splitting Hemlock plus a couple yurts, you're looking at well under $100/guy/night. The communal stuff is what separates Roamstead from a typical campground rental. There's a saltwater pool, a lodge with a lounge and camp store, multiple creeks running through the property, fire pits, and on-site dining with cocktails and craft beer - meaning your group doesn't have to drive into Gatlinburg for dinner if nobody feels like it. The Maddron Bald trailhead is right there, so you can hike straight off the property. ## If You Want Yurts Specifically Yurts are the signature glamping accommodation in the Smokies - round, framed structures with one big interior space, usually with a bed setup, a sitting area, and sometimes a small bathroom. They're about as close as you'll get to sleeping in nature without sleeping on the ground. Two properties to know: - **Roamstead's yurts** (covered above) - Cosby, TN side, 9 units, creek-adjacent, $104+/night - **[Sky Ridge Yurts](https://www.skyridgeyurts.com/)** - perched on a ridge above Bryson City, North Carolina. Seven yurts, mountain views, the go-to recommendation on the NC side. Rates aren't published publicly - request via the site Two very different vibes - Roamstead is the social, communal-amenity property; Sky Ridge is the quieter, view-driven one. For a guys trip, Roamstead is the more practical pick. For a smaller group of two or three couples or buddies who want the views, Sky Ridge is the call. ## Other Glamping Options Worth Knowing Beyond Roamstead and Sky Ridge, three other properties stand out for the right kind of group: - **[Treehouse Grove at Norton Creek](https://treehouse-grove.com/)** - Gatlinburg, TN. Elevated treehouses with private decks, fire pits, creek views. The closest glamping option to Gatlinburg proper, so this is the pick if your group wants to walk into town for dinner and bars. - **[Elk Hollow Resort](https://elkhollowresort.com/)** - Bryson City, NC. Yurts, safari tents, and full-kitchen mountain cabins, each with its own private hot tub and fire pit. More resort, less rustic. - **[Elk & Embers](https://www.elkandembers.com/)** - Waynesville, NC, on the southern (Cherokee) side. Luxury tents, a treehouse, and rustic-chic cabins. Catered breakfast and lunch included, plus you get a personal UTV to explore the property. Top of the price range. Worth saying out loud: there are dozens of "glamping" listings on Airbnb and Hipcamp around Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, but the quality is wildly inconsistent. The properties above all run their own sites and have been operating long enough to have a real reputation.

If late-night fire-pit storytelling is part of the plan, you want a property where the units are spaced out - Roamstead and Elk Hollow both work. Treehouse Grove's units are closer together - better for quieter groups. ### One Big Cabin Or Individual Units? One Hemlock cabin at Roamstead sleeps 7 for $162 - cheap per head, but everybody's bunking together. Splitting the same group into three yurts at $104 each gets you privacy at about the same total cost. Worth deciding before you book. ### How Close To Town Do You Want To Be? Treehouse Grove is closest to Gatlinburg's bars and restaurants. Roamstead is 25 minutes out - close enough for a night in town, far enough you don't hear it. Bryson City and Waynesville options are an hour-plus from Gatlinburg, but on the quieter NC side of the park. ### Do You Actually Need A Hot Tub? Elk Hollow includes one per unit. Roamstead does not. If your group is the hot-tub-and-bourbon type, that matters. ## Building Out The Guys Trip Itinerary The where-you-sleep part is solved. The actual trip - what your group does between waking up at the yurt and rolling back to the fire pit at night - is what makes a Smokies [guys weekend](https://www.mantripping.com/guys-weekend.html) worth the airfare or the road-trip miles. The park drew over 11.5 million visitors in 2025. Here's how to think about each piece of the itinerary. ### Trout Fishing And Fly Fishing The Smokies hold some of the last remaining wild trout habitat in the eastern U.S., which is the actual reason guys with fly rods keep coming back. The park has just over 2,900 miles of streams, with about 580 miles big enough to support trout - wild rainbow and brown trout in the bigger water, native brook trout up in the headwater streams. You need a Tennessee or North Carolina license depending on which side you're fishing (a state license, not a park-specific permit), and the park enforces catch-and-release on brookies in most waters. For the real adventure, hit the remote streams away from the main roads - the fishing pressure drops fast once you have to hike to it. Full property-by-property breakdown in our [guide to trout fishing spots in the Smokies](index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1531:an-ultimate-guide-to-trout-fishing-spots&catid=23:travel&Itemid=1350). ### Hiking The Park Hiking is the other reason guys love visiting the mountains here. Some entry-level picks for a group that wants the views without the death march: - **Cades Cove Loop** - 11-mile loop, easy, almost guaranteed wildlife sightings (deer, turkey, sometimes bears). Rentable bikes available at the visitor center if your group wants to ride it instead of walk it. - **Alum Cave Trail** - moderate, 4.4 miles round-trip to Alum Cave Bluffs, or push through to the Mount LeConte summit if your crew is in shape (10 miles round-trip, real elevation). - **Mount Cammerer** - for the group that came to hike. The fire lookout tower at the top is the payoff, and it's quieter than the Mount LeConte route. - **Newfound Gap to Charlies Bunion** - 8 miles round-trip on the actual Appalachian Trail. Photo-worthy ridgeline scrambles, brag-worthy without being brutal. ### Motorcycle Trips and Scenic Drives If your guys trip has motorcycles or sports cars in it, the Smokies are arguably the best driving region in the eastern U.S. - and the headliner is the **Tail of the Dragon**: 11 miles of US-129 at Deals Gap on the NC-TN border, 318 curves, and a borderline-religious destination for bikers and Mustang/Corvette guys. The biker bars at the Deals Gap end are the right kind of weird, and the photographers stationed mid-curve will sell you a shot of your own bike leaning into a hairpin. Inside the park, the must-drive routes are Newfound Gap Road (the only road that crosses the park) and the seven-mile spur up to Clingmans Dome - the tallest peak in the park at 6,643 feet, with a paved walk to a 360-degree observation tower. Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail just outside Gatlinburg is the bonus loop for old historic structures and waterfalls. ### Whitewater Rafting and Tubing For the day where the group wants to stop hiking and start getting wet, the Pigeon River and Nantahala Gorge are the two big options - multiple commercial outfitters running half-day Class III-IV trips out of both. The Pigeon River side (Hartford, TN) is closer to Gatlinburg-area glamping; the Nantahala side (Bryson City, NC) is closer if you're staying at Sky Ridge Yurts, Elk Hollow, or Falling Waters. Either way, book ahead for summer weekends - the slots fill. If your group wants the lazy version instead of the rapids version, the Townsend "Y" on the Little River is the classic Smokies float - just a tube and a cooler.

Both are walkable from anything else you're doing in town. For craft beer, the Tennessee side has Smoky Mountain Brewery (multiple Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge locations) and a handful of local taprooms. If you're glamping on the North Carolina side, you're 45 minutes from [Asheville Brewing's Shiva IPA](https://www.ashevillebrewing.com/beer/shiva-ipa/) and an Asheville beer scene that punches well above its weight. ### Golf, If That's Your Trip Not every guys trip is a golf trip, but if yours is, the play is **Sequoyah National Golf Club** on the North Carolina side - a Robert Trent Jones II-designed Par 72 owned by the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, with mountain views on basically every hole. It's about 30 minutes from Roamstead. **Gatlinburg Golf Course** in Pigeon Forge is the more accessible municipal option on the Tennessee side, roughly 10 minutes from Treehouse Grove or Camp LeConte. ## Best Time Of Year To Go Fall is the obvious answer - the Smokies in mid-October are as good as foliage gets in the eastern U.S., but every other group on the eastern seaboard knows it too, so book six months out. Spring (April-May) is the underrated pick: wildflowers, full waterfalls, no crowds yet, and shoulder-season pricing on the glamping properties. Summer is fine if your group is there to fish - the cold mountain streams stay cold. Winter is for the guys who want a snowy fire-pit weekend with a bottle of bourbon and zero crowds; some glamping properties (like Smoky Mountain Sky Camp) close November through March, but Roamstead stays open. ## Glamping Is A Fantastic Choice For Building Your Next Guys Trip Around For a guys trip in the Smokies, glamping is the right answer for the same reason it's the right answer for most [Tennessee guys trips](https://www.mantripping.com/united-states/tennessee.html) and Southeast outdoor weekends in general - you get the mountain experience without anyone in the group having a miserable night's sleep. Roamstead is the easiest first booking. Treehouse Grove if you want to be closer to Gatlinburg. Sky Ridge Yurts or Elk Hollow if you want to play the North Carolina side. Pick the property, book it six months out for fall or six weeks out for spring, and let the trip plan itself from there.
