Whisper "Hollar" at BLK147| Secluded Glamping Stargazer Tent | Hike-in | Adults Only Hidden among the trees in a private woodland hollow, Whisper "Hollar" is designed for guests who love being outdoors but appreciate a few comforts along the way. A short one-minute walk from the trailhead brings you to your own secluded retreatâno neighboring tents in view, no traffic, no distractions. Just the sounds of the forest and the rhythm of the mountains. Inside the spacious canvas tent, you'll find a queen bed with fresh linens, a comfortable sofa, and room to relax between adventures. Large screened openings invite the forest in, creating the feeling of sleeping among the trees while still enjoying a furnished, comfortable retreat. Just steps away is your private outdoor shower with adjustable hot water and a dedicated pit latrine. After a day in the mountains, there's something surprisingly memorable about showering beneath the forest canopy while listening to rustling leaves. We've taken care of many of the things campers usually have to haul in themselves. Fresh linens, towels, toiletries, drinking water, cookware, dishes, and cooking essentials are all provided so you can spend less time packing and more time enjoying your stay. The shared field kitchen offers space to prepare a meal, enjoy your morning coffee, or gather over breakfast. Each morning a Continental Breakfast is waiting for you. Hot breakfast sandwiches are prepared fresh and held in a chafing dish â on your schedule, not ours. As evening settles in, relax around the shared firepit or simply listen as the hollow grows quiet beneath a canopy of stars. Sleep easy knowing the property is surrounded by bear-resistant fencing. Tucked within a mountain fold, this site experiences sunrises and sunsets differently than most mountain destinations. Light appears and disappears through the trees from every direction. The forest's own version of a solar eclipse - genuinely unique. Escape into the mountains and wake up to a delicious breakfast. Nestled among the hollows and ridgelines on the side of a mountain at the edge of the Cherokee National Forest, BLK147 offers private glamping canvas tents delivering a secluded woodland experience without sacrificing comfort. There are no roads, rooftops, or neighboring tents in sightâjust your own peaceful corner of nature.
Each glamping tent is accessible via a short walk through the trees, where the hustle of daily life quickly fades away. Inside, a comfortable queen bed and versatile lounge seating create a space perfect for slow mornings, afternoon naps, and evenings illuminated by lantern light. Outside your tent, a private outdoor hot shower opens to the sky, surrounded by the sounds of birdsong and fresh mountain air.
When hunger strikes, the shared open-air field kitchen and firepit area provide essential cooking facilities for simple meals beneath the canopy of trees. Each morning, guests receive a continental breakfast and made-to-order breakfast sandwiches delivered hot in a chafing dish, so thereâs no need for an alarm clock.
Fresh herbs and seasonal vegetables grow near the field kitchen. Chickens and goats roam freely on the mountain, guardian dogs keep watch, and perimeter fencing helps keep wildlife at bay. The retreat is adults-only, offering a peaceful, quiet environment designed for restful escape in an increasingly busy world.
Located in a rare mountain fold - sunrise and sunset move through the treetops with the light appearing or disappearing in every direction. Fire restrictions follow Cherokee National Forest guidelines. Guests with pets are welcome to contact us beforehand to ensure the best fit for their stay.
