DreamMore Pools

Among the amenities at the resort are two swimming pools. What separates this from most hotels is that the indoor pool has a lifeguard on duty and provides life jackets for kids if needed. (The indoor pool is open year-round.)

The seasonal outdoor pool has a cascading waterfall on one side and on the other a zero-entry slope. For little ones, there is an interactive splash pad that is bound to make them happy. For adults, there is also a hot tub to relax in.  

At nighttime, the pool transforms into a magical scene straight out of a dream.

The list of resort amenities continues: a fitness room, a micro-market, a game room, Pokeberry Lane (a gift shop), and DM Pantry.

Dining at the Dollywood Resort

There are 5 dining options around DreamMore Resort, ranging from picking something up from the DM Pantry for a quick grab-and-go snack, to a sit-down dinner at Song & Hearth.

Guests also have the ability to enjoy meals in their rooms and poolside. For those seeking a little “adult time,” there is The Lounge where one can get a bite to eat and enjoy an adult libation.

Tribute To Dolly Parton

The resort would not be complete without a little tribute to Dolly.  From the wall with beautiful photos to the chest that will not be opened until Dolly’s 100th birthday (it has a special recording that nobody has heard) to butterflies on the carpet, little touches of Dolly are all around.

Best Time to Visit DreamMore Resort

While DreamMore Resort is open year-round, your experience can vary depending on the season.

Spring – Comfortable temperatures, blooming wildflowers, and lighter crowds make spring an excellent time to visit.

Summer – Summer offers full access to Dollywood and Splash Country, although it’s also one of the busiest times of the year.

Fall – Many visitors consider autumn the most beautiful season thanks to colorful foliage and Dollywood’s Harvest Festival.

Winter – The Smoky Mountains take on a festive atmosphere during Dollywood’s Smoky Mountain Christmas, making DreamMore an especially cozy place to stay.
