A Warm and Cozy Winter

Winter is a season of diverse opportunities. It invites us to gather. It creates a setting for unique explorations. It also beckons us to relax and embrace moments of stillness. At Blackberry Mountain, scenes of crisp Winter mountains encompass an atmosphere of quiet serenity, the perfect environment relaxation, reconnection and embracing the warmth of the season.

At the Mountain, each accommodation is equipped with a fireplace and the materials needed to warm your room with a glowing fire any time of day. A fire not only creates true physical warmth, it can also serve as a moment of ritual or intention – an invitation to slow down and simply be. You can enjoy the calming heat of a fire outside your accommodation too, curling up by the Library fireplace to enjoy the view of the valley, a great book or even play a game.

You can ward off the Winter chill and enjoy the soothing benefits of water by enjoying time in the hot tub, located at the peak of the Mountain by our Watchman Cabins. The warmth of the water encompasses your body, while crisp cool Mountain air refreshes your senses. If you book a stay in a Clingman Cottage, you can also enjoy the privacy of your own hot tub just outside the room, allowing you to sit, soak and take in the expansive Winter view.

Wellness experiences create opportunities to warm both the body and the spirit, whether you’re treating tense muscles with a relaxing massage or reinvigorating your spirit through the cooler, darker months of the season. Visit Nest spa for a heated steam shower before or after a Himalayan Salt Stone Massage or Walnut Sandalwood Moisture Mask. Or, sink into true allows inner calm and deep relaxation through the vibration of sound with a Soundbathing Meditation.

Finally, wrap your hands around a steaming mug or reach for a long-stemmed glass for a little warm from the inside out with your favorite sip.
