About Mountain Harbor Inn Resort

Mountain Harbor Inn Resort stands right on the shores of Douglas Lake in Dandridge, offering guests a perfect blend of lakeside relaxation and Southern hospitality. The resort's private rooms feature comfortable furnishings and lake views, making it a popular choice for both romantic getaways and family vacations in East Tennessee.

What sets this resort hotel apart is its signature evening experience: a complimentary sunset cruise on Douglas Lake, followed by a candlelit dessert service that caps off each day. Every morning starts with a full breakfast included in your stay, served in the main dining area overlooking the water.

The location puts you just minutes from downtown Dandridge's historic district, while also providing direct access to Douglas Lake's recreational activities. Guests can enjoy fishing, boating, and swimming during warmer months, or simply unwind on the resort's waterfront grounds. The property serves as an excellent base for exploring the Great Smoky Mountains, with Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg both within an hour's drive.

The resort maintains a peaceful atmosphere throughout the year, with peak seasons running during summer months and fall color season. While specific rates vary by season and room type, guests can expect standard amenities including private baths, climate control, and lake-facing views from most rooms.

For anyone seeking a lakefront resort experience in East Tennessee, Mountain Harbor Inn Resort combines the charm of a family-run establishment with the amenities of a full-service hotel. The combination of included breakfast, evening cruise, and dessert service creates a structured yet relaxing stay that keeps guests returning year after year.
