Mountain Shire made it into People Magazine 😍 Have to admit that we never imagined this would be in the cards haha

Justin Kersey left tech to build fantasy rentals in Pigeon Forge, including three Harry Potter-inspired cottages now available to rent.

Our friendly resident bear, Ozzy, came for a visit while we were working on one of the fantasy houses. He’s been coming around since he was a bear cub with his mama!

Once upon a time, your favorite books and movies became a place you could actually stay. 🪄

Some places are built to impress. This one was built to let you exhale. 🍃

The Golden Cottage at Mountain Shire began as a single drawing — and every detail since has been shaped by the hands of the people who own this land. No corporate blueprint. No cookie-cutter resort. Just a Hobbit-inspired retreat made slowly, lovingly, and meant to be lived in.

Wake up to birdsong and a garden in bloom. Sip your coffee where the landscaping was planted with intention, not convenience. Let the quiet do its work.

Sleeps 5. A Top 5% Airbnb listing. But really, it’s just a soft place to rest. 🏡
