THE DETAILS
The Magnolia is like none other. We truly are mountain top. Inside or out, you are surrounded with near panoramic views of our breathtaking Smoky Mountains. We love that The Magnolia offers climate controlled inside options with spacious outdoor patio areas. Having the venue wrapped with roll-top garage doors makes reception transition into dancing under the stars a breeze. We are not a cabin, not a barn, not an open field, not a ballroom, we are unique in our space and amenities.
