Ritzy Bear Lodge

“**Ritzy Bear Lodge**” is a luxury Smoky Mountain escape where elevated comfort, resort-style amenities, and sweeping mountain views come together inside the gated community of Shagbark Resort.

Designed for unforgettable group getaways, this spacious 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath lodge sleeps up to 12 guests and offers a refined balance of sophistication and fun. Guests also enjoy access to Shagbark’s resort amenities, including an outdoor pool, playground, tennis and basketball courts, scenic walking trails, and a covered pavilion—all surrounded by the natural beauty of the Smokies.

From the moment you step inside, the experience feels expansive and upscale. The main living area is framed by floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light and showcase panoramic mountain views. A gas fireplace, reclining seating, and a stylish lounge area create a warm yet elevated atmosphere perfect for gathering. The fully equipped kitchen flows seamlessly into a dining area for eight, with additional seating for four at the island—making shared meals effortless and elegant. Just outside, the covered deck extends the living space with cozy seating and an outdoor fireplace designed for evenings that linger under the stars.

The main-level primary suite delivers a true luxury retreat, featuring a king bed, sitting area, large TV, and a spa-inspired ensuite bath with a walk-in shower. A convenient half bath and laundry room complete this level.

Upstairs, two thoughtfully designed bedrooms provide comfort and flexibility. One features a queen-over-queen log bunk with a dedicated kids’ play area, while the other offers a king bed, mountain views, and a flat-screen TV. A shared full bath serves this level, keeping everything convenient for families and groups.

The lower level is where entertainment reaches its peak. A fully equipped game lounge offers billiards, skee ball, arcade games, and pinball, along with a relaxed seating area and large TV. This level also includes a private king bedroom, a full bath, and direct access to the lower deck.

Outside, the experience becomes truly unforgettable. A private hot tub overlooks the Smoky Mountains, offering a front-row seat to sunset skies, morning mist, and starlit nights.

“**Ritzy Bear Lodge**” is more than a cabin—it’s a high-end Smoky Mountain retreat where luxury living, mountain beauty, and entertainment come together in perfect harmony.
