A great place to host a group

The Lodge is a great place to host a large group. The dining room is large, welcoming and a great place to hang out. The kitchen is more than big enough and comes well equipped. Everyone had a great time. The hosts were very accommodating.

Great place for large family

We do a big family vacation yearly. Finding a place that houses 27 people (12 adults and 15 grandkids ages 7-17) is always a struggle. This property was above and beyond the best place yet. Huge kitchen and dining area with everything we needed in the kitchen. Family living space was great as well as the bedrooms. Upper and lower decks with lots of seating-hot tub on lower. Dock space was small but we made it work. We rented a pontoon for 5 days and between swimming, fishing and tubing kids had plenty to do. The house was very clean-very happy with it. Owners were great and responded promptly to questions/needs.

Large Family vacation

Every year my siblings and I bring our families together for a vacation. We have always used campgrounds and such to accommodate our large group. This place may become our new favorite spot. There was enough space so we could spread out. The multitude of bathrooms kept us from fighting for bathroom time. The large kitchen allowed us to prepare dinners for the whole group with ease. The lake was beautiful. While there are other houses close by around the lake inside was quiet and peaceful regardless of what was happening outside. Highly recommend this space for anyone who wants to have a large group stay together with space.

Graduation get away

Because of a graduation at C-N, we decided to make it a family affair. We have dispersed family members all over the south from Texas to Virginia and all areas in between. We don’t get to see each other near as much as we like and this was a perfect opportunity to do so. Flights into Knoxville were convenient and the drive was easy enough for all those to get to. The layout was great and provided individual family spaces as well as area to accommodate group activities. We played basketball and corn hole, used the grill, and went hiking. The hot tub was well used by all and kept it temperature even when the ambient air was in the twenties. The location made it an easy drive to pigeon forge for family fun days. The gps took us straight to the spot. Great stay all around!

MY family (3 sons, 2 daughters, spouses, 14 grandchildren, wife, and me - 26 of us) had a wonderful time. The lake was perfect for swimming. I brought aa 16' motorboat that we launched at the nearby ramp and kept at the dock. We also brought a canoe and inflatable kayaks and paddle board. We spent much of our days on or in the water. The kitchen was perfect for our large group with plenty of utensils, silverware, and plates, plus two large ovens, grill (inside electric and outside gas), and huge fridges plus a freezer. The pool table and games were welcome and kept kids busy. We had the best time ever!

The property exceeded our expectations in every way. The host was extremely responsive. There was enough space for our group of 22 to spread out comfortably. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook with and had enough space for several chefs at one time. The highlight for the group was definitely the lake - warm enough for even the littlest swimmers and private in a cove so that all could swim safely. Would highly recommend this place for anyone looking to be close enough to the tourist attractions but also secluded on the water to rest and recharge.

Family get away

There were 21 of us for this week long stay at the Lodge. We met here from PA, MO & CO. Our time was filled with so many fun memories! Lots of late nights shooting pool and going out on our boat. We enjoyed the lake, sight seeing, hiking, fishing, grilling and amazing sunsets. The kitchen was amazing for our needs. We love to cook! Dining area worked very well for eating together as a family and plenty of space for kids to play and we were able to complete 4-500 pce puzzles the whole week. I loved that I could sit in the wee hours of the morning knowing that for this short time we were all under one roof and spending this time together.

Family Vacation

The Lodge was clean and as advertised. Area is beautiful and the dock on the lake provided hours of fun. Plenty of tables and chairs outdoors and the two level wrap around deck gave us plenty of places to enjoy nature. Owner was very helpful with our questions and concerns.

Thanksgiving Gathering

We had an incredible Thanksgiving at The Lodge with our family of 24! The house was everything we hoped for and more - spacious, clean, and exactly as described. Each room was thoughtfully appointed, and there was more than enough space for everyone to gather comfortably. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our holiday feast, and the multiple living areas were perfect for spending quality time together. Highlights included the fire pit (perfect for s’mores and sharing family stories), the cozy indoor fireplace (where we gathered together for football after dinner), and the pool table & game table downstairs. This property exceeded all our expectations, and we can’t wait to return. If you’re looking for a perfect spot for a large family gathering, look no further - we highly recommend it!

We have a large group that meet up every fall for a buddies golf trip in the Gatlinburg area. This was by far the best place we have found for the large number that we have. The cabin was in great shape. It was clean and well maintained. Will definitely come back.

Wonderful family fun!

We stayed at the Lodge for our annual family vacation and were not disappointed! The spacious Lodge held our big family with plenty of room to spare. The bedrooms were well sized and had dressers and areas to hang clothes. The bathrooms were also very amply sized, had plenty of storage space, and included hair dryers which was one less thing I had to pack. We spent a lot of time in the well equipped kitchen and were so grateful for the 2 refrigerators and freezers. There was plenty of room to cook and store food and drinks. The gathering room was big enough for all 20 of us to eat together. The gathering room and downstairs living area also had games and a pool table that we enjoyed tremendously. The house stayed nice and cool during the 80 degree days even when we were using the kitchen. We loved the deck space and outdoor private dock and rented jet skis and a pontoon for a day. It was close to the grocery store and a Dollar General for anything we needed while we were there. We spent time utilizing the basketball net in the spacious driveway and didn’t have to maneuver around the multiple cars parked there because there was so much room. The hosts were so responsive with any questions that we had. Check in was a breeze and the check out procedures were simple. Trash pick up was smooth, there were ample trash cans that were picked up during our stay so we never had any issues, if you’ve traveled with a big group, you know how important that is! Thank you!

Loved it!!

My family had an amazing time here!! We had 27 people ranging in age from 5 months to 69 years old and everybody had a blast! The kitchen was spacious and made it easy to cook for our large group. The dining room was huge and had plenty of seats for everybody and space for the kids to play and run around. They even had a toy cabinet that the kids loved! The swimming was fun and easy to get to. We did have some trouble with the ladder being loose on the dock but once we contacted to owners they had someone out the same day to fix it. Overall it was a wonderful vacation with family and we are definitely considering coming back again!!
