Even if you don't believe in fairy tales, a trip to Blackberry Farm proves storybook magical. Located in the foothills of the Smokies, this luxurious, tucked-away spot is undoubtedly a splurge. But they take pride in spoiling guests in almost countless ways. A kind staffer gladly builds a fire in your cottage's fireplace. And before you sink into your fabulous bed-covered in exquisite linens and cozy pillows-be sure to check out the refrigerator, where Dove bars await.

Speaking of food, you'll discover the meals (all inclusive) are elegant and romantic, featuring impeccable service and a stunning view of the mountains. Even the box lunches contain gourmet chicken, the freshest salads, and saucer-size cookies that Hansel and Gretel would surely love. Be spoiled at the spa, stroll along the mist-covered trails, take an Orvis fly-fishing class, or simply savor the beauty of this special, hidden gem, where your every wish is their command. This fairy tale always has a happy ending. --Wanda McKinney
