THE HEAD REST at Deals Gap, Tail of the Dragon Mountain Retreat!

"The Head Rest" overlooking Cheoah Lake is a picture perfect spot no matter your reason for visiting. Amazing views lend to all day relaxation or a cozy unwind after hiking, fishing, sight-seeing, or taming the Legendary Tail of the Dragon. Mornings offer gorgeous sunrise hues while taking in the surrounding sounds of nature. Evenings host a reflection of Eastern sunset glow and rising moon views. Easy proximity to many exciting adventures including rafting, boating, exploring, parkways, nature, and more!

The Head Rest has been a destination for repeat visitors for many years and we are extremely excited to now be the hosts! The home is a 4 bedroom 2 bath home with two decks, a comfortable living room on 2 levels, including a fireplace on each level and great views no matter where you are. The kitchen is fully equipped and spacious for a group of people to be cooking after a day of adventure! You will have the entire home to yourself to relax and enjoy the amazing Smoky Mountains.

WiFi for the home is provided via Starlink! Typically service is reliable with few interruptions. If there is a WiFi or TV interruption during your stay, we recommend playing one of the fun board games, cards, reading or planning your adventure for the next day!
