Perched on stilts and nestled among the trees at the end of the Parkside Tepees trail, Flyin’ Free offers one of the most private and peaceful glamping experiences in the Smokies. Elevated above the forest floor, this nature-inspired tepee features a king bed, sleeper sofa, and rustic-modern design that invites total relaxation. With the quiet of the woods outside and the comfort of upscale amenities inside, it’s the perfect hideaway for couples or small groups. Whether you’re sipping coffee on a misty morning or unwinding after a day in Pigeon Forge, Flyin’ Free delivers elevated serenity—literally and figuratively. With treetop views and a tranquil atmosphere, Flyin’ Free is perfect for travelers seeking solitude or couples looking for a romantic getaway that’s off the beaten path—but still connected to everything Parkside Resort has to offer. The exterior and interior are inspired by the freedom of flight and the lightness of life outdoors, with wood accents, nature-themed decor, and large windows that bring the forest inside.
The interior includes a king-size bed and a sleeper sofa, comfortably accommodating up to four guests. Warm lighting, rustic furniture, and laminate wood flooring give the space a cozy, cabin-like feel. Whether you’re curled up with a book by the electric fireplace or enjoying a movie on the flat-screen TV with cable, you’ll find that every detail is designed to help you relax and recharge.
Climate-controlled by a mini-split A/C and heating system, the unit stays comfortable in every season. A full private bathroom with a walk-in shower provides the convenience of home, while a wet bar with sink and mini fridge gives you the essentials for morning coffee, snacks, or a late-night drink on the deck.
Though it feels like a hidden sanctuary, Flyin’ Free still includes access to all of Parkside Resort’s premier amenities—including indoor and outdoor pools, a private 18-hole putt putt course, arcade, hiking trails, fitness center, playground, and more. Plus, you’re just minutes from downtown Pigeon Forge, where you can explore top attractions like Dollywood, The Island, and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
With its elevated setting, serene location, and inviting atmosphere, Flyin’ Free is more than just a tepee—it’s a mountaintop moment of stillness and freedom, offering guests the chance to truly get away without giving up the comforts of home.
