Our recommendations for other services in the Gatlinburg area

Last checked: September 2026

  • Massage and yoga
  • Photographer

There are other services that you may want to make use of to plan your vacation in the Smokies that don’t quite fit into the other categories in our area guide. We have here collected our recommendations for some of these.

See all of our recommendations in our guide for Gatlinburg and the Smoky Mountains, or on its map!

Massage and yoga

Comes to the lodge

Gatlinburg Mobile Massage

A great option instead of going to a spa is to have a massage therapist come to the lodge. Roger and Sami of Gatlinburg Mobile Massage are our recommendation and several of our guests have used their services. Straightforward pricing for massages customized to your needs.

Smoky Mountain Yoga

After a day hiking or other activities, yoga might be what you need. Arrange a private group yoga class or get a private session at the lodge. The certified instructors from Smoky Mountain Yoga will bring yoga mats and positive energy.

Photographer

Two Trotters Photography

These days, everyone has a smartphone with an advanced camera in their pocket – but there is nothing quite like getting a professional photographer. Our recommendation is Isaac and Cristy Trotter of Two Trotters Photography (formerly Isaac Trotter Photography). They do outdoor family portrait sessions at scenic spots around the Smokies – make sure to contact them well in advance to check they’re available during your stay.
