Deer Ridge Gift Cards for Christmas

Consider giving your parents, kids, or grown siblings the gift of a vacation to the Smokies this year! Deer Ridge is offering gift cards for those interested, and what a gift it can make!

Deer Ridge offers vacation condos and cabins in Cobbly Nob, Tennessee, between Cosby and Gatlinburg. Our condos provide "The Best Views in the Smokies" (and if you think that's just a slogan of ours, come out and see them!) between 1 to 2 bedrooms with lofts in some units, cabins with 1-7 bedrooms, and a main resort complex with a swimming pool, sun deck, picnic tables, meeting room, $1 video rentals, tennis court and much more.

Additionally, we offer $20 worth of gift credit to you for every $100 in gift credit you spend on a card. That means giving someone a weekend at Deer Ridge could help provide you a stay of your own! See more on our gift cards at www.deerridge.com. Read More!

Special Events Coming Up For Thanksgiving 2013

Gatlinburg will be celebrating the Thanksgiving Season as the city traditionally does - with three special events going on at the same time, under the same roof at W.L. Mills Auditorium near Ripley's Haunted Adventure.

From 11/26/13 to 11/30/13, the Gatlinburg Festival of Trees will be the first event to take place at W.L. Mills and it's also an excellent introduction to the coming Christmas season. This is a charity event sponsored by Smoky Mountain Area Rescue Ministries and features dozens of exquisitely made Christmas trees to make a man-made Yuletide forest in the great convention center. All proceeds go to the ministry efforts of Smoky Mountain Area Rescue Ministries.

Then, from 11/26/13 to 12/1/13, the Great Smoky Mountains Thanksgiving Arts and Crafts Show will be held on the other side of the convention center. With 100+ booths and artists both local and from Virginia, Ohio, Georgia and way beyond, there is a wide berth of arts and crafts available - from candles, baskets and wood works to rock works, paintings, clothes and more.

Finally, on the nights of 11/29/13 and 11/30/13, the Great Smoky Mountain Dance Theatre will perform two shows of the Nutcracker "Sweet", which means that on 11/29/13 and 11/30/13, you could enjoy three amazing holiday special events on the same day under the same roof! If you are your family are looking for something amazing to start the holiday season, here it is!



Come to Deer Ridge for the Thanksgiving and not only will you only be 15 or so minutes from attractions like these in Gatlinburg, but you'll have enough room and entertainment for the whole family to enjoy themselves at our mountaintop resort. You'll even have enough room for the Thanksgiving dinner!

Comments:
Fantastic view from the balcony. Very comfortable suite, nicely decorated. Away from the noise and crowded conditions of Gatlinburg, but still close enough to town for trips to the National Park and to the restaurants. Fire place was great on the cool evenings. We didn't use the pool or game area, so can't comment on that. We spent much of our time hiking and site seeing.

Golf groups enjoy fall visits to Deer Ridge Mountain Resort

This fall is giving us beautiful weather and allowing golf groups to really enjoy their visits to Deer Ridge Mountain Resort.  We have hosted the Simmons golf group (1st time visitors) and the Newman golf group (past guests) during the month of September.  We are looking forward to having Lockheed Martin from the Marietta GA facility back with us this year.  This golf group visited us for the first time last year - and they are bringing a bigger group back this year!  They will be here Oct. 10-14 and have booked 20 rooms for this year's outing.  We are glad to have these folks back with us!

One of the great things about Deer Ridge Mountain Resort is the fact that we often have wildlife stop by for a visit.  These pictures were taken around lunch time near our Maintenance Building here at the resort:

Changing Fall Colors 2013

What we suspected after a wet and cooler Summer than previous ones is coming true - the leaves are already falling and changing here in the Smokies. The full bloom is still a ways away, but you can already see colors throughout the mountains and trees as you drive.

And one of the best ways to see and genuinely experience the nature of the mountains in the Autumn is a darn good hike with the family in the Smokies. We offer a unique "Scavenger Hike" package at Deer Ridge which includes 2-3 night stay in our highly-rated resort, special logo backpack, trail maps, aluminum bottle and a Scavenger Hike Adventures book to start your journey!

This package and many more can be found at www.deerridge.com. Don't forget we have Sunset Festival coming up soon - stayed tuned for that!
