Bluegreen Vacations Breaks Ground for Mill Springs Lodge
Bluegreen Vacations Holding Corporation (“Bluegreen Vacations,” “Bluegreen,” or the “Company”), a vacation ownership company, recently broke ground for the construction of its Mill Springs Lodge in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.
Planned to open in 2024, the new lodge-style resort will feature architecture, interior design and amenities inspired by the surrounding Smoky Mountains and offer an elevated level of quality and finishes throughout the property. With a nod to the Arts and Crafts era, the lodge will boast native hardwoods, dormers, cultured stone facades, waterfalls, outdoor pools, fire pits and other elements reminiscent of the period. Additionally, 67 guest accommodations including three-bedroom presidential suites, two-bedroom units as well as studio-style rooms featuring upgraded cabinetry, kitchen appliances, decorative lighting and other amenities will offer owners and guests an ideal setting for comfort and relaxation.
“This region continues to be a popular destination among Bluegreen’s owners, and we are very excited to introduce them to this beautifully-designed resort,” said Dusty Tonkin, Chief Sales & Marketing Officer of Bluegreen Vacations. “The planned design of the accommodations along with the amenities such as the spa are a direct response to the increasing expectations of our owners. We believe that once completed, Mill Springs Lodge will be added to the list of ‘must-visit’ resorts,” he added.
Mill Springs Lodge is among the three new developments being added to Bluegreen’s portfolio*, which already includes 43 Club Resorts in iconic destinations across the US. Bluegreen recently announced the acquisition of the Panama City Beach Resort and Spa in Panama City Beach, Florida, which has been renamed Bluegreen at Bayside Resort and Spa; as well as 46 units at the Streamside at Vail resort enclave in Vail, Colorado.
“Bluegreen continues to focus on providing our owners with opportunities to enjoy memorable vacations with their loved ones. This includes identifying the right opportunities to expand our footprint with new resorts so that more people can experience the power of vacation,” Mr. Tonkin said.
