Where Nature Meets Luxury

Walking in the woods

Why Open Air

Open Air brings you closer to nature in a way that feels both natural and indulgent. For our first property in the Great Smoky Mountains, floor-to-ceiling windows frame sweeping views and trails wind through 17 acres of private land. Every detail, from reclaimed wood to the care taken in preserving the landscape, is designed to honor the mountains while immersing you in luxurious serenity.
