An anniversary retreat in Sharps Chapel, Tennessee
Serenity Villa is a couples-only retreat on a mountaintop in Sharps Chapel, Tennessee. The whole house is yours: a private hot tub behind a glass wall that lifts open to the night air, a cedar sauna with a forest view, a fire pit with two chairs facing the valley, and a king Nectar bed dressed in bamboo sheets.
The first night: hot tub, sauna, and fire
Most anniversary couples do the same thing on their first night, and it shows up in review after review. Hot tub with the wall up while the sun goes down. Sauna. A drink by the fire under the stars. Then the pinball machine, if there's anything left. In the morning it's coffee on the upstairs balcony with the hummingbirds.
Norris Lake and Knoxville, close by
Norris Lake is five minutes down the mountain if you want a day on the water; Knoxville is about 40 minutes if you want a proper dinner out. Or cook in the full kitchen and don't leave the property at all. Nobody would blame you.
