Built by Hand,
Inspired by Nature
Smoky Mountain Retreat started with a simple vision: to create a beautiful home in a peaceful, natural setting where our family could live, grow, and connect with the world around us. We wanted a space that reflected our love of nature and our creative, entrepreneurial spirits.
Construction of The Cabin began in 2015, followed by our home and The Suite in 2021. Rob, who owns a building company with his father, brought incredible attention to detail and craftsmanship to this West Coast home build. Every design choice, every environmentally conscious decision, reflects what both Nicky and Rob value most: quality, care, and connection to the land.
Over the years, this space has become a place where we can indulge in the things we love most—gardening, fostering animals, raising bees, and gathering for countless family dinners. We’ve hosted community workshops and markets, always with the hope of building a stronger sense of community and connecting with people who share our passions.
From the beginning, we knew we wanted to share this place with others. Welcoming guests has given us the joy of meeting kind, adventurous, and caring people from all over the world, and it’s been amazing to see them become part of our story. We are deeply grateful for the opportunity to share our home and the natural beauty that surrounds it with you.
