Private, exclusive & hidden in the heart of Tennessee, our exclusive and private retreat is located near the Gateway into the magical Smoky Mountains in Eastern Tennessee, about an hour south of Knoxville. The mountain overlooks the Nantahala National Forest, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forests. It is within easy driving distance from attractions such as Lookout Mountain, Rock City Gardens, Ruby Falls, Lost Sea, Bald River Falls and many other phenomenal natural spots.
The nearest town is Tellico Plains, a small vintage mountain town with locally owned businesses including: a bakery, coffee shop, and delicious restaurants. There are also dozens of local farms, waterfalls, and an abundance of mountain biking, hiking, fishing, fly fishing, and white water river rafting in the area.
THOR is surrounded by vast National Forest, 6 minutes up a dirt road and is accessible to most vehicles. It’s a 1.5 hour drive southeast of Knoxville, TN, or 1 hours from Knoxville Airport.
You can drive to the land or fly into Knoxville Airport where we can pick you up. Because THOR is not found on Google maps, we will send you directions when you are signed up to come.

Today, she helps women get strong, improve confidence, support hormone health, and create a stronger second half of life.
