The vibrant camping landscape of Tennessee recently welcomed a unique addition with the official opening of Roamstead’s flagship site, Roamstead Smoky Mountains.
Roamstead, an innovative collection of modernized campgrounds, is nestled in Cosby, Tennessee, neighboring the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (GSMNP).
This premier location offers an opportunity to combine the enchantment of nature with the allure of elevated design and genuine hospitality.
Roamstead’s concept is an innovative attempt to make camping more welcoming and comfortable for all while retaining the adventure and excitement that outdoor explorations offer.
We want to make the great outdoors as welcoming and comfortable as possible, and I am so proud of our team for delivering on this vision by creating a truly beautiful and accessible campground. If you want to get outside without sacrificing the comforts of home, come stay with us!” said Thomas Connolly, co-founder of Roamstead.
Private campground owners and operators in the vicinity may take cues from Roamstead’s model, seeing as it elegantly intertwines contemporary camping demands with nature’s charm.
Roamstead Smoky Mountains provides several accommodation options, including cabins with varied floor plans, RV/camper hookups, yurts, tent sites, and lodge rooms.
This allows for a wide range of camping experiences from the more traditional to the upscale, thus catering to a diverse audience of outdoor enthusiasts.
Added to these amenities are a range of recreational opportunities such as an activity yard, playground, and movie nights designed to engage younger visitors.
With an outdoor heated pool, a coffee shop and bar, and communal fire pits, Roamstead goes beyond just being a campground.
It’s a place where adventurers can unwind and socialize after a day of exploring the wilderness.
A range of food and beverage options, including breakfast, dinner items, and a selection of regional beers, provide further allure for the campground.
The location of Roamstead Smoky Mountains also allows easy access to the offerings of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and other nearby parks in Tennessee.
Adventurers can explore the rich biodiversity, scenic beauty, and abundant outdoor recreation opportunities these parks offer, all while having a comfortable base at Roamstead to return to.
Reflecting a broader sense of responsibility towards the environment, Roamstead has also partnered with Friends of the Smokies, a philanthropic organization that works towards the preservation and protection of GSMNP.
Part of the proceeds from every Roamstead stay will support the organization’s cause, marking an essential contribution towards maintaining the park’s beauty.
Friends of the Smokies’ president and CEO, Dana Soehn, echoed the excitement about this new partnership, appreciating Roamstead’s commitment to enhancing camping experiences while giving back to the environment.
“We are excited that our new neighbor is both welcoming visitors to a fabulous camping experience and also giving back to support the care of Great Smoky Mountains National Park through their generous donations,” said Soehn.
This fresh approach towards camping promises to redefine the camping experience, and Roamstead is already making waves in the outdoor hospitality industry.
Private campground owners, outdoor enthusiasts, and nature conservationists alike have much to look forward to as Roamstead opens its doors. To discover more about Roamstead or to make reservations, visit https://www.roamstead.com/.
