Big Foot's Basecamp Outdoor Kitchen + Fire Pit
Grill dinner. Toast marshmallows. Claim your Adirondack throne.
After a day of sliding out of treehouses, hiking the Smokies, or exploring Sevierville, this is where guests gather to cook, relax, play corn hole, and make “just one more s’more” memories.
Gather, Grill & Unwind in the Trees
Our community outdoor kitchen and fire pit area gives guests another place to relax, cook, laugh, and make memories during their stay. Whether you’re grilling dinner, making s’mores, watching a game, or winding down after a day in the Smoky Mountains, this shared space was designed for easygoing evenings in the fresh mountain air.
Pair your evening at Basecamp with our 1-mile interactive scavenger hunt, walking trails, and a stay in one of our 18 one-of-a-kind treehouses for the full Sanctuary experience.
