The new
Lodge at Five Oaks sits across from the Tanger Mall on the Parkway in the Smoky Mountains. The exterior and interior of the newly remodeled Lodge is based upon the farmhouse of Dr. John and Blanche Ogle which sits across the street. Dr. John raised Tennessee Walking Horses on the land where the Lodge at Five Oaks is located and the pastures sit next to the Lodge.
The new Lodge is a complete remodel to an open, welcoming, farmhouse look and feel. You will feel immersed in Sever County history as the Walking Horse legacy is carried over in the logo, the decor and pictures from bygone days throughout the Lodge. Hardwood floors, comfortable furniture and fresh baked cookies and lemonade in the afternoon make you will feel like you have arrived at Grandma's house. The welcoming staff will make you feel relaxed and at home.
The Lodge at Five Oaks is positioned perfectly for visitors wanting to shop, eat well and play in the Smoky Mountains. The Lodge is across from Tanger Five Oaks Outlet and close to Governor's Crossing with more shops and plenty of places to eat. Fuddruckers, Texas Roadhouse, Joe's Crab Shack, Red Lobster, Olive Garden and Longhorn Steakhouse are a few of the places to sit, relax and eat.
And when you you retire to your room, you will be surrounded by custom designed furniture, comfortable, custom-made chairs, custom-made pillow-top beds, and artwork by local artists depicting the history of the area. The room includes a Smart TV, microwave and fridge, and your bathroom features stone-top counters and a fully-tiled shower with a bench, perfect for letting the water wash away the cares of the day.
