Perched on a mountaintop in the Smokies, Cataloochee Ranch is a Relais & Châteaux resort that mixes classic ranch fun with exceptional accommodations and cuisine.
Founded almost a hundred years ago by the Alexander family, Cataloochee Ranch has been a favorite mountain getaway for generations of high country adventurers. Under new ownership the property was completely renovated and reopened in 2024.
Spread across hundreds of acres along the southeastern border of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the property’s breathtaking elevation, open balds, and long range views are complemented by classic comforts, perfectly rustic cuisine, humble hospitality and hands-on, expert-led activities.
