Guest reviews

“Sarah was a great host. The lodge is fantastic and our family enjoyed the time we had there very much. Lots of good/nice details and plenty of space/logistics for large group.”
Joseph, March 2025 · review on Avara Stays
“My extended family enjoyed Thanksgiving week at Tanasi Lodge. The mountain views are stunning. … The younger children loved the gameroom and movie theater and did not want to leave their "mountain" house when the vacation was over.”
Beth, November 2025 · review on Avara Stays
