This was a family and friends reunion for a group from7 different states. We had 3 different families with 3 generations. There was lots of room for everyone. It was a good base camp for all the activities and exploring the Smokys and Gatlinburg. The house was stocked with essentials. Very beautiful views.

Something for everyone!

This house was absolutely perfect for our large and diverse group, ranging in age from 10 to 51! The kitchen setup was phenomenal, with two fridges, two ovens, two stoves, and two dishwashers—making meal prep a breeze for everyone. There was plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjoy. The game room was a highlight for all, and the hot tubs were a big hit as well. The view was stunning, and the house was easily accessible. We also loved how convenient the location was, with everything we wanted to do just 15-30 minutes away. The owner was fantastic—always responsive and quick to answer any questions. Highly recommend this home!

House was wonderful

The house had everything we needed. Our group was 1 year old to 80 & everything in-between. The house was close & convenient to town & grocery stores. Everyone enjoyed the hot tubs. Lot's of privacy with all the bedrooms. We had a mama bear & her 4 cubs come by 3 days in a row. Exciting to see from inside! We also had a few people land on our front porch (for safety) because of bears on the street.

Wonderful family reunion location

A mountain-view location so close to the Gatlinburg downtown was perfect for our mid-October reunion of seven siblings and spouses. We enjoyed working with the owner and found the property wonderfully set up for our needs, including the well-stocked kitchen with two dishwashers. The deck with mountain view off each bedroom was appreciated. For those wishing to see changes of colors in the future, they were just starting to turn when we were there Oct. 10-13.

Wow, just wow!

21 family members decided to vacation for the first time together. To say we had a good time is an understatement. This cabin was PERFECT for us. Stuff for the kids to do to stay entertained, each bedroom had bathrooms, the beds were so comfy and the views were amazing. We got a call from the caretaker warning us of bad weather that evening before we checked in the next day and they allowed us to get in a little earlier so we could make it safely. Wow! So generous and caring to say the least. Thank for you allowing us to use the cabin this weekend and creating great memories.

Smoky Mtn Family Vacation!

The location was perfect! Great area…the views of the mountains were amazing! Great size of home for 19 people with mixed ages 1-1/2 years…. 4&5 year olds….7&8 year olds & adults! Communication with owner was spot on and most considerate! The major huge drawback was cleanliness…… that was a great disappointment. I truly do not believe the house was not cleaned for many weeks…. Maybe just lightly “picked up” but not cleaned. The conversations with the owner were prompt and quite apologetic and she showed great remorse for the condition of the house. It was difficult to get past the condition. I believe the owner will truly attempt to improve the situation for future renters.

The Big Buck Lodge

The Big Buck is a lovely mountain log home with great views and french doors accessing a deck from all 8 bedrooms. The home needs to be deep cleaned. The linoleum in the bathrooms is worn and does not get rinsed well when mopped as they are sticky. The fixtures and finishes in the showers and vanities are scuffed and scraped. The light fixtures and ceiling fans are covered in dust and grime. There are several light bulbs that need replaced. We were asked to strip the bedding from the beds. The condition of the pillows were bad. They were shabby and stained. The bedspreads have seen alot of wear. Several of us removed the bedspreads and bought blankets to use, as there were no blankets in the bedrooms. There were no hangers in the closets.The dresser drawers were not clean. I chose to leave my clothing in my suitcase. The refrigerators needed to be cleaned. Big Bear Falls is conveniently located to Gatlinburg attractions. The views are beautiful. Instead of stacking up rentals, one after the other, it would help reviews if a deep cleaning was done to the entire property and bedding replaced.

This was a family trip with five of our children, two of our sons’ spouses and seven of our grandchildren, a total of 16 people. There was plenty of space for the times we were all together eating, playing games, watching movies, or wanting to slip away for a little quiet solitude. The two refrigerators and ovens came in really handy. The property is well cared for, has an amazing view, and daily trash and recycling pick up, which was awesome for us! It was a 30 minute drive from hiking as well as 20 minutes away from a nice looped hiking trail for our littles. Plenty of shops, activities, groceries, and restaurants are close as well. The pool table, arcade games, and hot tubs made it so we could enjoy our time in the cabin easily on the days we wanted to stay in. We’ll definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!
