Ready to escape the ordinary? Ancient Lore Village is your ticket to a world where imagination runs wild, adventure waits around every corner, and screens take a back seat. Our overnight packages let you create your own story—whether that’s thrilling challenges, cozy comfort, or a mix of both.
Choose from axe throwing and archery, a freshly prepared dinner from our catering kitchen (advance reservations required), or simply wander at your own pace. Explore with self-guided audio tours, trek the shaded hiking trails, or embark on the Quest for the Medallion, discovering the values our village was founded upon in a playful, interactive adventure. On-site fun also includes our game yards with oversized yard games and corn hole, giving you plenty of ways to relax and play outdoors.
A quick tip: closed-toe shoes are required for axe throwing and archery, but beyond that, costumes, whimsical attire, or comfy layers are all fair game. The only rule? Let your imagination guide you.
When it’s time to rest, retreat to one of our whimsical dwellings that accommodate 2–8 guests, each themed with its own unique character and personality. Inside, you’ll find a wet bar area with a microwave and small refrigerator—perfect for snacks and drinks—but no TVs. Don’t worry—you do have Wi-Fi, so you can stay connected as needed, but here, it’s all about Disconnect to Reconnect. Let go of the everyday, step into the story, and immerse yourself fully in another world.
Before you arrive, be sure to check our calendar for other special events and activities happening during your stay. Many experiences, including dinner and certain activities, require advance reservations, so planning ahead ensures you get the full village experience.
Kick back under the trees, breathe in the forest air, and let your creativity run wild. Want a little local flavor? We’re just 15 minutes from downtown Knoxville and 35 minutes from Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, and Gatlinburg, so you can mix a touch of sightseeing with your magical escape.
At Ancient Lore Village, adventure, relaxation, and imagination are always on the itinerary. Come ready to dream, explore, and reconnect—because the only limit is your imagination.
