Relais Chateaux Award

Our verdict

Situated within the Main House, the Dogwood features a menu as dynamic as the veranda views of Blackberry Farm and the Great Smoky Mountains that extend beyond its bar and dining room. Inspired by the remarkable location, but open to creative interpretations and flavors, the Dogwood's well-crafted cuisine from Executive Chef Sarah Steffan is characterized by an eclectic perspective expressed through diverse dishes and fare. Seasonal menus are served in an intimate environment that is at once elegant and comfortable, with engaging guest experiences like passed small bites, shared plates and an ever-changing sideboard of classic farmstead desserts. Complementing this memorable cuisine, the Dogwood's beverage program features a curated list of small production wine and beer and an exclusive assortment of inventive cocktails, unique whiskeys and American brandies.
