Need help w/name for business...

[disneyfan551]

Hi! We are 90% complete in building our 1st rental cabin, and I need help! We are in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina, and are needing a name for our rental cabin business. Being the "disneyfan" that I am, I would love to have something that was disneyfied! For our 1st cabin, I was thinking of "Tinkerbell's Treehouse" (because it is VERY high & because tink's my fav!) But, my main objective is to find a great overall name for our business.

Can you guys help me??? I learn so much on these boards every day, and I just KNOW that you will give me some great name or unusual phrase that I can use!!

Thanks so much for letting me pick your brain...

Hi Tiffany,

My boyfriend and I are vacationing in the smoky mountains at the end of May, will the cabin be ready by then? We still have one night that we haven't reserved somewhere and would love to try out your new cabin. Please email me if it will be ready!

I am so jealous of your business - our dream is to own a bed and breakfast in the smokies some day!

We are both Disney fans and I am a big Peter Pan fan as well. I will brainstorm for some business and cabin names for you.

Exactly what I was thinking.....I would love to come down for a visit! Let us know when it is open. I will pm my email address to you!

How about Welcome Home cabins?
Or Welcome Retreat?

How about using "Neverland" in your overall business name and then name your individal cabins with some of the names listed..

Tinkerbell's Treehouse
Lost Boys Lodge
Pan's Hideaway..and so on.

You can market it like talking about returing to simpler times, reminding you of a child-like fantasy, a relaxing vacation in the Smokey's...

Something like that...

I like the idea of doing all the cabins in a Peter Pan thing.........and I would call the place..
Smokey Mountain Neverland...

Tink's Treehouse
Lost Boys lodge
etc

I like the Neverland idea....
But it really convey's 'family getaway' to me - now if your cabins have a real 'family' appeal as opposed to the 'romantic getaway' appeal, then it is a great idea. If you are after a romantic getaway, I would go with a more 'adult' idea (not saying that peterpan is not an adult thing - but in the generalizations of the basic public is is a child thing). Also, is there not any laws against using licensed character names for things?? I would just make sure of that too!!

 

[mom2boys]

What a great place for a cabin! We love it there too. I agree with Kaos Creator about being careful with copywrite/registered trade mark names. DH ran into a lot of problems trying to make sweatshirts as a fundraiser for his college organization. The college (rinky dink U) name was a registered trademark & they had to have permission to use the name.
Maybe it's just the way my mind works, but when I heard Neverland, two things came to mind. First it was Michael Jackson & his Neverland Ranch & then PeterPan.
How about somehting like Castle in the Clouds?

 

[disneyfan551]

Thanks for all of the great suggestions! When I hear of Neverland, I tend to think of Michael Jackson's Ranch too! But, I would love to do them in one solid theme like you have stated! My parents also own cabins and they tell me that people are looking to get away from the hustle-bustle (we have a lot of Florida people visit our area!), and they do NOT want to hear of anything that has to do with Disney, or the things that they are "used to". How dare people not want to hear a Disney name...

We are located in Bryson City, North Carolina. The cabins are 1/2 a mile from the Great Smoky Mtns. National Park, and we are 15 minutes from Harrah's Cherokee Casino. We are located in an "adventure" area, with whitewater rafting, and other outdoor activities. Thanks so much to those of you interested in visiting our cabins! I would love to meet more diser's! I will send a website link to those of you that would like more info.

I would love to hear more business names, too!!!

 

[Gillian]

No name suggestions (sorry!) but I would love the info!

Best of luck with your new venture!

Cool...No names...but wanted to say that we were over that way when we went to see Juneyhawk Falls, TOms Branch Falls and can't remember the third one in that little area, but that is a very nice location..
