The warm days of summer are coming to a close while the crisp days of fall are almost upon us. It’s time to start preparing for the cooler weather, beautiful changing colors of the leaves, and all the fall fun that’s on its way. One of the best ways to view these glorious changes of the season is through a stay at one of our local Airbnb’s or Vrbo rentals throughout the Lakeside of the Smokies. Check out these five unique stays that offer the most views of the fall season!
1. Glamping on the Water
Camp in style at this amazing new resort on Douglas Lake.

Waterscape offers both outdoor adventure and a calming natural experience that won’t disappoint.
2. The Rustic Farmhouse
Situated in New Market—this authentic 100-year-old farmhouse is furnished with antiques, and lovingly displays pictures of the original owners, Henry and Altha Puckett.

4. Lakeside Cottage
Nestled on the shores of Cherokee Lake, lives the Little Nest cottage. This beautifully eclectic little cottage has three outdoor decks with views of the mountains and surrounding countryside. These decks have a table for two under a lighted pergola, a fire pit, and loads of charm. Inside, there is a wood burning stove, and also has a beautifully situated sunroom with a canopied daybed. The gorgeous scenery around this cottage can be viewed from virtually anywhere on the property!
5. Pirate Treasure
Last but not least, is the pirate ship houseboat on Douglas lake. This houseboat looks and feels like a real pirate ship. It is decorated inside with pirate memorabilia, and outside there are masts that make the experience feel real. If you really want to feel like a pirate, there is even a plank you can walk! Aside from decoration, the houseboat contains a hot tub, grill, and free to use kayaks with life jackets, as well as a fire pit, outdoor dining table, and water slide!
