When you stay at the ranch, entertainment is offered, and entertainment options are many in bustling Maggie Valley just down the road. But in our opinion, here, high in the mountains, you can't beat the star-studded show provided by a night sky with no city lights to dim the brilliance. To get to the ranch, take Exit 20 or 27 off I-40. Follow U.S. 19 S. through Maggie Valley to the west end and follow the directional sign. The ranch is 3 miles up paved Fie Top Road.
Accommodations are gracious and varied.
Rooms in the main lodge or its Woodcrest wing offer panoramic views of the first tee. The Brookside or the Fairway lodges have porches or balconies within putting distance of the golf course. For a more private setting, you can stay in the Senator or Governor cottages, or the two-bedroom Country Villa, which features a kitchen and dining area. All accommodations have cable TV and air conditioning. There is also a swimming pool and two tennis courts near the main lodge.
