We hosted our wedding weekend here and it was truly exceptional. We visited four times prior to our wedding, and each time we were blown away with every aspect of RT Lodge. The setting is idyllic, with plenty of spaces to explore or sit and relax. The rooms are quaint, well furnished and very clean. The lodge is dog friendly (even with larger breeds) which has allowed us to travel there stress-free. The food is absolutely fantastic and the bar serves everything from seasonal cocktails to a good variety of craft beer and wine. After dinner, enjoy smores on the house at the inviting fire pit. Hospitality is second to none! The lodge is yours for your entire wedding weekend and the team goes far beyond what is expected to ensure you and your guests are well taken care of. My…

RT Lodge - A Short December Stay We had the opportunity to stay at RT Lodge again, in December. Just like with our August stay, we were attending an event at Blackberry Farm in Walland, TN, but could not get in on our first night in TN - flight schedules from Phoenix to Knoxville (through Washington/Dulles) were still a mess. So, we booked RT Lodge again, and were glad that we did. We picked up the rental car at the airport, and slowly drove to RT Lodge, as we were early to check in. We stopped in Maryville for some wine, then to the Maryville College campus, where RT Lodge is located. We were still early, and surprised that our room was ready. We moved the luggage in, and unpacked. Again, we were in the Wiley House, but on the ground floor, in Room 308. Other than the…

Decided to stay here after having dinner at the restaurant(which was pretty good). Rooms are offered in older 2 level motel buildings. We opted for a room on the 2nd floor with a balcony; which was located at an adjacent building to the right of the restaurant. The room was small, but nothing to complain about for a 1 night stay. The bathroom was small as well, but was clean and tidy. The comfort of the bed was just ok, and the pillows were too soft: But none of this was a deal breaker. The one major complaint is that the heat/air has no “in room” control. It got very hot, with no way to turn the heat down. We had to keep the door propped open to the balcony, just to sleep. We found out the next morning that the controls are done at a central location. Unfortunately, a…

Decided to have a dinner here and then added a night stay in a Patio room. 103 Rooms are cozy but small, no small couch just a chair and table. Nice walk out to rocking chairs on patio next to main building. So much vegetation it is really a woodsy feeling. Check in very nice. Here’s some things to improve: Bed Mattress is hard as a rock; no box springs just a slab of hardness. Almost no give. Breakfast - Being served and plated by server due to COVID. Bacon almost burnt, very crisp and almost inedible. Bread delicious and they toast it and serve it to you. All of the public areas are lovely and make you feel like you are in an English Country home. Dinner server seemed inexperienced. Had to explain what Tanqueray was. Service was uneven. What was upsetting was the…

This property is beautiful tucked away in the woods. The service and food was spot on great. I cannot say enough how well the service team worked though out the wedding without missing a beat. Thank you for a very nice weekend.

RT Lodge - A Lovely Night at a Lovely Lodge In August, we were finally able to travel again. We had cancelled everything between mid-March and mid-August, and were ready. Almost a year earlier, we had booked several trips to Blackberry Farm, just outside of Walland, TN. Unfortunately, we had to cancel one of those, in May. The wine event, which we were attend was cancelled, and then our flights into Knoxville were also cancelled. At least we were going back for a culinary/wine event in August. Now, the schedules on United Airlines are a mess, and especially between Phoenix and Knoxville. There are far fewer flights, and there were not that many before COVID. We struggled to coordinate flight, with the booked event, and ended up with overnights in Chicago, plus one in…

Where do you even start with listing the great things about the RT Lodge... from the minute you drive onto the grounds, you immediately feel like you entered another world. Even though it’s so close to Maryville, the airport and the mountains, you feel secluded and peaceful in the wooded setting. The king rooms were incredibly clean and so comfortable. I loved how the lobby areas had such unique decor and some of the history of the lodge was posted in different places. The antique ski coat rack was my favorite! Check in was easy, it’s really nice to have actual keys with the carved wooden key chains. Every area felt historic and rustic while still feeling so clean and modern. The wooden tree bark style vanities and mirror was such a nice touch to the room. Again, the rooms were…

After driving through 5 states to get here, we found paradise. What a great place to rest and relax and be treated like royalty. This lodge is warm, rustic, clean and welcoming. The staff are sweet and charming. We brought our Black Lab with us and staff treated her like family. The grounds are meticulously manicured, the restaurant 5 star in my humble opinion and the food is fresh, perfectly prepared with locally grown products. We enjoyed our 3 day stay here while visiting the greater Knoxville area. Thank you to all the wonderful people who took such great care of us.

Five-star dining, quaint, rustic-themed lodging. Surprised to find freshly brewed coffee in the foyer of our wing. Very friendly staff. Wooded, private setting that feels like a Four Seasons resort on an intimate scale.

The venue is so warm, inviting and elegant all at the same time. A rich, rustic vibe is experienced through the decor which reminds me of a Ralph Lauren photo shoot. Service was very good, with hand passed delicious appetizers along with an eggnog moonshine drink served in a tiny milk glass...fun. The buffet with mini beef sandwiches and chicken sliders also filling. Walking outside past the large fire pit and smores station, we were enchanted by the twinkling lights, water and beautiful winter landscape.
