With its grand opening on November 3, the resort offers breathtaking views, rustic aesthetics, and delightful amenities, including a nightly s'mores service by the wood-burning firepit. Dolly Parton, present at the opening, expressed her excitement, emphasizing her close involvement in the project's development. The resort, a testament to her love for the Smoky Mountains, adds another remarkable accomplishment to her impressive career.

Designed with families in mind, HeartSong Lodge features unique elements like bunk beds, play areas, and communal spaces while maintaining Dolly's signature class. It offers a range of accommodations, including family-oriented suites, loft options, and balconies in some rooms. The resort boasts indoor and outdoor pools, event spaces, and multiple dining choices. Rates vary depending on the room type, day of the week, and booking timeframe, with some discounts available for pass holders. Special privileges are provided for Dollywood and Splash Country ticket holders, including priority access, early park entry, and transportation services. HeartSong Lodge is a pivotal part of Dollywood Parks & Resorts' ambitious expansion plan to become a premier year-round family vacation destination over the next decade.

Dolly Parton's first resort, DreamMore, remains a cherished destination in Pigeon Forge.
