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!

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.

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.
