Blackberry Farm.

Sprawling across a 4,200-acre estate at the edge of the Great Smoky Mountains, Blackberry Farm is a working-farm-turned-luxury-resort that prioritizes epicurean culture over typical hotel seclusion. Originally a private home built in 1940, the property has evolved into a 68-room destination where the experience is dictated by the land. The heart of the stay is the "Foothills Cuisine" program, which utilizes foraged ingredients and produce from the on-site garden to drive an all-inclusive, farm-to-table dining model. Activities are equally structured and specific to the terrain, ranging from fly fishing and horseback riding to truffle hunting with Lagotto Romagnolo dogs. Between the timberframe barns and the Wellhouse spa, the atmosphere balances high-end refinement with a deep-rooted, rural heritage that remains private and accessible only to registered guests.
