How to Choose the Right Cabin in 5 Steps
Set your headcount and room plan: Count couples, singles, and kids; note who needs main‑level bedrooms.
Prioritize meal logistics: Confirm kitchen equipment, seating capacity, and grilling space for group dinners.
Pick your top 2–3 amenities: Common winners: home theater + game room + hot tub; consider an indoor pool for all‑season fun.
Map your location: Balance quiet scenery with drive times to Dollywood, the Parkway, and national park trailheads.
Book early and leverage value: Large reunions should book about a year ahead, smaller groups 6 to 8 months out; take advantage of cabin specials and free tickets.
Pro tip: If you’re between two cabins, choose the one with better dining capacity and a second living space; your group will use those constantly.
FAQ
How many bedrooms do we need for a reunion?
A quick rule: one bedroom per couple or adult pair, a bunk room for kids/teens, and at least a couple of main‑level bedrooms for grandparents or anyone who prefers fewer stairs. For very large families, consider a second lounge or den so kids and adults can split activities.
Are indoor pools worth it for family reunions?
If you want guaranteed, all‑weather fun for kids and teens (and evening relaxation for adults), indoor pools deliver big. They’re especially valuable in cooler months or for groups that want on‑site activities without additional planning.
How far in advance should we book a large cabin?
For big reunions, aim for about one year in advance; smaller groups can often book 6 to 8 months ahead.
Which amenities keep all ages happy?
Top crowd‑pleasers include a theater room for movie nights and slideshows, a game room with pool/arcades, a hot tub, and strong Wi‑Fi. Add a fire pit for s’mores and storytelling under the stars.
