Luxurious Mountain Vacation Rentals

If you’re looking forward to a great vacation in the mountains, make sure you pick the right mountain range for your vacation. Many people are inclined to think that bigger is better, so they turn to the Rocky Mountains for America’s highest peaks. However, people often neglect to consider that there isn’t always a lot for them to do in these high mountains.

For one, the elevation of much of the Rocky Mountains prevents plants from growing, so there isn’t much in the way of scenery aside from the mountains themselves. Also, the elevation can also lead to altitude sickness for those who aren’t used to the thinner air found at very high altitudes. These are both good reasons to consider a vacation in the Appalachians.

This eastern mountain range is much more friendly to tourists, as its high peaks usually jut out just above the tree line, so there is an interesting green landscape. In fact, the climate of the Great Smoky Mountains is home to one of the most biologically diverse temperate ecosystems on earth. By picking slightly smaller mountains, you also avoid altitude sickness, making your vacation not only more scenic, but also more enjoyable.

When you come to the Appalachians, be sure to stay at Smoky Mountain Country Club. With our luxury accommodations, full-service clubhouse, championship golf course, and four-star restaurant, you’ll get to enjoy the mountains in class. So when you’re looking for the right mountain resort, look to the right coast and find yourself in the Smokies.
