Blackberry Farm

Blackberry Farm is an outstanding resort and we cannot wait to return with our children. The service was incredible and the accommodations, grounds and facilities were amazing.

We had a great visit. Blackberry is classic resort with attentive service.

Blackberry Farm never ceases to be the perfect getaway. From the food to the staff, perfection greets you at every turn.

Blackberry Farm is perfection. We loved every minute of our stay there! Our cottage was stunning and the service is amazing! The food is the best we have had anywhere!! We loved our dinners in the barn and even had a tour of their amazing wine cellar!! The spa is incredible- don't miss the tranquility room! We can't wait to go back!!

The customer service at Blackberry Farm is truly amazing. We were never left wanting for anything at all. Between the wonderful greeting we received upon arrival to the farm to the fire waiting for us in our cottage at night, the staff went over and beyond to make the experience something special. The food was exquisite. Every meal, all day long, we could literally sit at a table from breakfast until lunch and be catered to our every need. We loved the cottage and the Blackberry Bluegrass music playing on our radio our entire stay. It was a wonderful place and I hope we go back at some point and experience every season at Blackberry Farm.

We had the best time on our recent trip to Blackberry Farm for five days. We stayed in a cottage and had our own golf cart. When it was raining we just called the front desk and they sent a Black Lexus SUV to pick us up with in minutes. The personal care and attention was out of this world. Our only small issue was when dining each night in the barn it would take up to three hours to from start to finish. We did have a large group but others I talked to not in our group felt the same. The wait staff always were polite and attentive although food was a little slow to come out. But presentation, quality and farm to table meals were the best. The brand new spa was beautiful. The best were the hanging beds in the tranquility room. First class service, accommodations and food. So perfect for a romantic getaway.

Really enjoyed our stay. We stayed in Robin cabin and the views were stunning. Felt like we were staying in a tree house. The food is amazing, fresh ingredients from their farm and the wine list was incredible. Staff was great - very attentive and the spa - AMAZING!

Beautiful location, great service, great food and wine! Off the beaten path which provides privacy/relaxation but also offers many activities to keep you busy if you are interested - you have choices. I really enjoyed the cooking demonstration and spa treatment.

We had to rebook our stay due to our children getting sick. They rebooked our stay without any trouble.

We have lived in the North and the South and travelled all over the world. Some things are universally, and Blackberry Farm has polished them to perfection. Kind and professional staff from check in to departure, food and drink without rival, and a pleasant rhythm that allows one's soul to rest. Bravo!

We have booked several vacations with Karen and have been impressed by her level of professionalism and expertise with each of the trips that we have taken. The recent trip to Blackberry Farm was no exception. We are frequent visitors to the Farm and always have a warm reception upon arrival and during the entire stay. This trip was a bit somber with a death of the Farm's proprietor. However, Karen communicated with us prior to the trip to ensure us that our stay would be handled in a professional manner. And, of course, she was right! Thank you, Karen, and your team for another wonderful experience. Now, I'm planning where to go next!!

Blackberry Farm is the perfect choice for a 2-3 night get-away. The setting is breathtaking and the staff take care of every detail so you can relax and enjoy Mother Nature. The 12 acres of hiking trails are a must while you are there, as it allows you to explore the grounds that make BF so special. The culinary team delivers on the "Farm to Table" concept at every meal with most ingredients being sourced directly from the Farm (or locally). Highly recommend the Cooking Demonstration as a way to learn more about cooking at the Farm. This is truly a great place to get away from it all, unplug and enjoy time outdoors in an unbelievably picturesque setting!

Perfect as usual! The food, staff, accommodations and grounds are top shelf not to mention the Wellness Spa which on a par with the best spas we have experienced. We will be back soon! Kind and Whitson made sure everydetail was perfect--again!

Blackberry Farm is the perfect place to simply unwind and let others take care of every detail to the perfect degree. From outstanding staff and ameneties to delightful cuisine, it is a great getaway.

Blackberry Farm is the greatest de-stresser I know of. The pace is a gentle Southern style. The attention to detail is amazing. All activities are either onsite or you are chauffeured there in one of the hotel's vehicles. We generally stay in Guest House but it was booked so we ended in Holly Glade Cottage. Not my first choice as it was in a glade; hence no view of the Smoky Mountains. The organizational skills are amazing. Our event plans changed due to rainy weather but they adapted as though it were already planned that way.

Beautiful setting, lovely and very comfortable accommodations, very pleasant staff and wonderful food! It was extremely relaxing and we really enjoyed meeting some of the other visitors to the farm. Such a unique and unspoiled getaway destination tucked into the Smokies.

Great luxuary Resort with tremendous amenities.

BF was so much fun. We booked the hot stone massage, dinner at the Barn, and enjoyed exploring the property by golf cart our first evening. All the food is beyond delicious and the views halt you to be enjoyed. They have a great saison they brew on property and we loved playing with the puzzle in the Heritage Room. We'll definitely be back.

Another great visit!

This was our second stay at Blackberry Farm and it was even better than our first. The staff were incredibly accommodating to our 11 month old daughter (especially Rebecca and Melody at the Dogwood, Mike at the garden, and Matt at the front desk). We loved hiking in nearby Great Smoky Mountain National Park, cruising around the property on a golf cart, and playing at the family pool. We received a tour of the wine cellar from one of their somms, Jonathan, which really made our date night to the Barn special. I would visit more frequently if it wasn't for the cost and high service fees (I also don't like that they add a service fee to every activity, including bike rentals - where for multiple days there wasn't any real "service" to speak of - and babysitting, because I didn't realize and had already tipped the babysitter)

Blackberry Farm is tops....the best of the best! Our stay there could not have been more perfect. They just know how to make their guests feel comfortable. The entire staff from the cute young greeters in front, the front desk, the bar attendants and the wait staff...plus the sweet and personable household staff, the shop personnel... just everyone is beyond friendly and accommodating. It's beautiful...the Barn out sight for dining and the new wine cellar spectacular. I could go on and on....it's a Smokey Mountain destination everyone should have the pleasure of visiting.

Amazing. From the moment I arrived I felt like I was at home. The service is second to none and the attention to detail was phenomenal. On the day of my departure I felt like I was leaving family behind. The property is gorgeous. There are so many places to explore and experience. The spa and wellness program were also exceptional. And the food...oh my goodness! The food was the best I have ever had! I thought this would be a once in a lifetime trip but now I am trying to figure out how quickly I can get back to Blackberry Farm!

Great resort. Fun time had by all. VERY expensive.

Our 17th visit! One of our favorite places on the planet!

Blackberry Farm is a world class resort. The service throughout the grounds was exceptional, and the fine dining in the Barn was exquisite. If you love to be pampered, eat great food pared with excellent wine, and relax in a gorgeous setting, then Blackberry Farm is the place for you. Highly recommend!

Our stay at Blackberry Farm was excellent -- it all started with the thoughtful planning by our Virtuoso Travel Agent, Cristina Buass. Without Cristina's help we would not have had as memorable a time. Every aspect of Blackberry Farm was lovely: our cottage, the spa, the grounds and especially the amazing meals and service. Highly Recommend.

We enjoyed the comfortable & beautiful property that is Blackberry Farm. It is truly a retreat that helps you slow down, breathe, and focus on all that is most important in life. The spa is world class.

The feeling was down home yet high-end. The level of service was top-notch and I would come back again and recommend to others. Because this was my babymoon, I feel like my husband and I received an extra-special experience. In addition, the meals were all delicious and the dining experiences were so wonderful.

The perfect destination to celebrate our anniversary and enjoy some time away from the kids. We enjoyed numerous activities including shopping, biking, hiking, swimming, and just relaxing at the spa. The best part, of course, was the food. Blackberry Farm is a serious food destination. Each meal was better than the previous one. It was impressive how much the menu changed from day to day (and not just the dinner menu). The other best part of Blackberry Farm is the staff. They are extremely friendly and proactive in being helpful. It's five diamond service, but without being stuffy or pretentious. Finally, our suite was amazing. A beautifully renovated old stable with modern conveniences. Charming and cozy, but practical and efficient.

What a special place! I’d heard wonderful things about Blackberry Farm and I arrived with high expectations. What a pleasure it was to find it as fabulous as described. There is a distinct charm and easy going elegance. Every staff member we met seemed to share a passion for the property and a passion for pleasing guests. Dinners in the Barn were superb. You can count on attentive and friendly service as well as a unique and delicious menu. Take advantage of the activities. A farmstead tour is a great way to become acquainted with the area and the impressive people who care for it. The hiking trails are beautiful. We also enjoyed a private wine tasting. It’s a perfect place to enjoy natural beauty with the comfort of great service.

Exceptional!! Exclusive!! Relaxing!!

As most people do, we went for the food and honestly that would have been enough! However the beautiful scenery, impeccable service and endless array of fun activities were the icing on the cake. We cannot wait to go back. Everyone should add this to their must visit list!

We savored every minute. The people are warm and wonderful, the food is spectacular, the scenery is like a dream and the accommodations are luxurious and just what you need after a day of hiking, swimming and eating. Meeting the farmers, seeing where food is grown, meeting the puppies on-site...it checks so many boxes of a perfect experience.

Honestly one of our top 3 travel experiences in our lifetimes... and we have traveled to some incredible locations. Can’t wait to go back!

Never occurred to us to go to a farm for vacation but I’m sure we will be back. Terrific combination of truly laid back vacation and fun engaging activities. Everyone at the farm went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. Gained 10 pounds from all the amazing food...best 10 pounds ever!

Blackberry Mountain was special. So much serene beauty to explore and something for everyone. We did a lot of hiking, meditation, reading, and fun classes like Bungee Fit n Fly! The mountain is a great place to experience any time of year, I imagine, but I loved having access to the pool on the last weekend of summer.

This was a top notch relais chateaux resort close to the Smoky Mountain National Park. No detail was overlooked. The staff was delightful as well as helpful and we were always greeted with a smile. There are lots of activities and the food is beyond delicious. We cannot wait to go back.

I give Michele Spahr the highest possible rating. She is incredibly responsive and provides very valuable feedback on suggested properties. She really listens to what we are looking for- kids vs no kids, activities vs chill, modern vs traditional, location, food, beach, pools, kids club, etc- you name it! We now only use Michele to book our travel and I recommend her any chance I get....it is very satisfying knowing we will also be thrilled with the property when we arrive at our destination.

Absolutely fantastic! It lived up to its famed reputation!

Incredible. Gorgeous resort, incredibly appointed rooms, fabulous service, delicious food, and the most beautiful spa.

This place is magical and worth all of the good reviews it has received. I'll be back for sure.

If you’re looking for a charming spot that offers top notch amenities and superb service, this is the spot for you. So easy to get to. A direct flight into Knoxville and about a 25 minute ride and you’re there! From the fresh farm to table food, the spa, the hiking trails, spectacular accommodates and a picturesque setting, BlackBerry Farm is a must! The trip was made even more memorable thanks to Maria Diego of Diego Travel Agency who carefully planned every picture perfect detail of this getaway. Thank you, Maria and BlackBerry Farm, for providing this gal with the perfect dose of R&R.

Attention to every little detail. Loved the cottage food and spa. Amazing and relaxing experience.

Diego travel agency truly delivered a wonderfully coordinated spa/girls trip/mountain experience! The cuisine, the views, the accommodations at blackberry farm are simply top of the line. Thank you maria Diego for making this possible!

We had very high expectations for our first trip to BlackBerry Farm and it exceeded them all. The service is exceptional, accommodations are comfortable and well appointed and the food is out of this world!! The property is beautiful. Every view is spectacular. We can’t wait to return. Oh and I still dream about the pimento cheese!!

I cannot wait to go back to Blackberry Farm. The facilities, staff, and overall experience are unlike anywhere I have ever been. You could easily have an entirely different experience the next time you go, depending on the activities you take on. I would highly recommend it to anyone!

Second time we have gone to Blackberry. We enjoy it a lot

This is a very special place! We loved all of the amazing service and special touches. Definitely everything we had hoped for!

A true gem of a property! Did not think it could compete with the Farm experience but it truly did and has carved out its own equally beautiful and special experience! Would return to both properties and highly recommend.

Just amazing place to be. The people were friendly and efficient. The accommodations first class and the food outstanding. Plan on returning .

Blackberry Farm was a perfect vacation filled with beauty, relaxation and activities. The food and wine selection was incredible. Everyone was extremely friendly! Great place for all ages!

I loved my stay at the mountain. Our cottage was gorgeous and the hikes were wonderful! The food was delicious as well! Loved the outdoor fireplace on our patio. The golf carts made exploring the property easy and convenient.

This trip was to Blackberry Mountain but we previously visited Blackberry Farm. I though Mountain offered more outdoor activities and healthier food options where Farm was more relaxing and revolved more around heavier (although great tasting) meals.

We love Lisa, she is the most awesome travel agent that we’ve ever known!!! Blackberry Farm was insane, we loved it tons!

Blackberry Mountain is an amazing place. From the moment you arrive the staff is attentive and informative. The food is fresh and presented in unique ways. The activities are numerous and professionally staffed. I would highly recommend this place

Wonderful staff. Delicious meals!

Very nice resort!

The service was excellent, the food was exceptional and this is a great place to get away!

You could easily stay in your spacious private suite nestled in the woods sitting by the wood-burning fireplace, watching a football game on TV, munching on homemade pimento cheese on artisan crackers, and never feel the need to leave. Or you could hike through the woods of the Great Smoky Mountains in pure solitude, take a dip in the pool, have a massage, then enjoy an amazing dinner at the main house. Or you could ride bikes in the morning, shoot skeet in the afternoon, and have a private dinner party literally outside in the garden among the tomato plants, cornstalks, basil, and artichokes while a bluegrass combo is softly playing music. There is no end to what you can do, but the common denominator for all Blackberry Farm guests is that you get to dine on the most wonderfully prepared selections. The meals at Blackberry Farm will not disappoint, I promise, and the staff bends over backwards to be polite and accommodating. Do yourself a favor and go see it for yourself.
