Planning a family reunion, wedding weekender, church or youth trip, corporate offsite, or team travel? You’re in the right place. We’re sharing the top things you didn’t know about our large cabins in Gatlinburg TN.
Picture this: 42 cousins laughing through a late-night movie in your cabin’s private theater while the grill sizzles on the deck.

The 7 Things You Didn’t Know About Our Large Cabins in Gatlinburg TN
1) You’re closer to the fun than you think.
You’ll feel blissfully tucked away, yet you’re a short drive to downtown Gatlinburg, the Parkway, Anakeesta, SkyPark, Ripley’s Aquarium, Ober Mountain, and the national park’s main entrances. This keeps logistics easy for big groups and mixed interests.
2) We keep large groups together (under one roof).
From 5-bedroom homes to ultra-large lodges (some sleep 100), you can host reunions, wedding parties, church/youth groups, corporate teams, and sports rosters in one place. Private bedrooms, large living rooms, huge dining tables, and big decks are built for gathering.
3) Resort-style perks (ask about pavilions and pools).
Several large cabins sit in resort-style settings, giving you access to community outdoor pools (seasonal) and outdoor pavilions perfect for cookouts and group meetups.
4) Pet-friendly options (bring the whole family).
Many large cabins welcome dogs. Skip boarding and bring your pup. For activities, stroll the Gatlinburg Trail inside the national park and explore pet-friendly outdoor spaces around town.
5) Freedom Fun Pass = extra value.
Book direct and enjoy our Freedom Fun Pass with one free adult admission to select attractions every day of your stay (noncumulative; unused admissions expire daily). It’s a smart way to stretch group budgets while experiencing more.
6) Built-in entertainment (rain or shine).
Private indoor pools, home theaters, game rooms, hot tubs, fire pits, and big-view decks mean the “home base” is part of the vacation, which is especially helpful for varied ages or rainy days.
7) Year-round specials to save more.
From free-night promos to seasonal discounts, we run value-forward offers that make big trips more affordable, especially if you’re flexible with midweek dates or shoulder-season stays.
Summary: These seven perks (location, capacity, resort extras, pet friendliness, added value, on-site fun, and year-round deals) are what turn a good group trip into a great one.
