This large group vacation rental in the Smokies features plenty of conveniences to make stays easier, including a charcoal grill for cookouts, washer and dryer, fully equipped double kitchen, and flat driveway! The Pigeon Forge cabin is also pet friendly and even has some handicap features, making it more accessible. If you want to make your large group stay entertaining, convenient, and memorable, Big Forest Lodge is the perfect large cabin with a pool in Pigeon Forge for YOU!

Living Room
Hold team meetings, lounge with your best pals, forge new bonds with coworkers, and unwind at the end of each day in the living room at your Pigeon Forge cabin. The leather sofas, decorative area rug, and stacked stone (electric) fireplace complement the gray hardwoods throughout the room and nature scenery through the large windows.

Between fall festivals, winter performances, spring hikes, and loads of summer activities in Pigeon Forge, this living space is restful, comfortable, and ready for group entertainment on the big screen TV! Unwind with a cup of joe and a book in the mornings or invite your bestie for a midnight chat and treats here. The living area offers that cozy cabin experience (even for large groups) on your Smoky Mountain vacation.

Kitchen
With an open concept throughout the vacation home, you’ll find the full kitchen perfectly placed within steps from the living and dining areas, keeping conversations going without a pause. With a wall of windows within sight, the Smokies will feel ever so close when prepping and cooking meals.

The fully equipped kitchen at your Pigeon Forge cabin rental boasts beautiful cream cabinetry, an oversized island, double the appliances (including refrigerators, stoves, microwaves, and dishwashers) plus plenty of dinnerware, cookware, cutlery, and more.

As a bonus, there are 3 coffeemakers so everyone in your group can grab a cup of coffee without a hassle in the mornings! What’s more, the massive island features tons of extra counter space where you can start a buffet line and bar seating for 4 where the early birds can gather for breakfast at your mountain hideaway.

Dining Area
Just off the huge kitchen is the open dining area harboring 3 large tables with seating for 30+ guests. The living room sofas, island bar stools, and covered deck with tables and chairs will give everyone a place to sit, chat, and dine throughout your stay.

Ready to host board game night? Clear the tables, grab a few games from the cabin’s stash, and set up a fun tournament for everyone — winners compete for a grand prize! Paired with a few pours from the Rocky Top Wine Trail, what could be better?

Private Indoor Pool
An oasis in the Great Smoky Mountains sure sounds nice — make this dream your reality at Big Forest Lodge! Welcome to the private indoor pool with stone flooring, a pyramid island, color-changing lights, large windows with tree-studded views, and refreshing lagoon-like water. And it’s just the first of many luxury amenities!

Let the kiddos splash around while you sip a large glass of sweet lemonade or take a cool dip yourself. And since the swimming pool is indoors and open year-round, weather or time won’t change your pool plans! Having a Pigeon Forge cabin with a private indoor pool is an awesome perk on your Smoky Mountain getaway.

Rec Room
Multiple rec spaces — aka game rooms — offer entertainment for all ages at your large group lodge in Pigeon Forge, TN. Whip up a mixed drink at the wet bar, play poker for fun, shoot pool with your teens, sit at the pub table with a few friends and a cold one, and beat the highest scores on the arcade games! And if playing isn’t your thing, be a chill cheerleader on the sofas with entertainment on the big screen TV.

Theater Room
Movie night isn’t just an activity at Big Forest Lodge — it’s an event! Fix buttery bowls of popcorn and plates of freshly baked cookies in the kitchen, then head to the luxe home theater. Choose the best theater-style (cushioned) seat in the house, sit back, sip on your favorite soda, and get ready for the full movie experience with the projector screen and booming surround sound!

You can even lay out a pillow pallet for the little ones; they’ll love it.

Bedrooms
Ready to hit the hay on your Pigeon Forge vacation? Your 16-bedroom cabin rental in the Smokies sleeps up to 63 guests (pretty amazing, right?) — with a mix of 13 king-size beds, 3 queen-over-queen bunks, 1 triple twin-size bunk, 5 queen-size futons, 4 queen-size sleeper sofas, and 4 twin-size sleeper sofas for a full house!

There’s a mounted TV in each of the king bedrooms to keep guests entertained before heading to dreamland…or when struggling to leave their cozy bed in the mornings. Plus, some of the rooms offer mountain views or even direct deck access for a little private mountain time.

And to make things even more convenient, there are 16 full bathrooms (1 has handicap features; not ADA compliant) plus 2 half baths in the rental home.

Outdoor Spaces
When you’re not enjoying area fun, like playing mini-golf, chatting with tropical birds at Parrot Mountain, or axe throwing in Pigeon Forge, retreat to the great outdoor spaces at your spacious Smoky Mountain cabin rental. Featuring mountain and tree-studded views, the multiple outdoor spaces will be a hit with your large group.

Sway in the rocking chairs with your morning mug of joe, soak tired muscles in the bubbly hot tub every evening, rest on the lounge chairs with a fun novel, and dine with friends at the tables. There’s even a charcoal grill, perfect for fun cookouts or nice steak dinners! And when everyone’s ready to paint the town red, head to the flat driveway, pile in the cars, and zip to in-town excitement.

Other Amenities
In addition to playing indoors and outdoors at your luxury cabin, there are a few other amenities that will make your trip extra convenient, like the washer and dryer, high-speed Wi-Fi, and handicap features (a ramp and bathroom).

Best of all, this pet-friendly cabin in Pigeon Forge welcomes your furry friends to come along, too! And you’ll have keyless entry, which means you can meet everyone at the property to check in, instead of stopping at an office first.

Local Fun
Keep your large group entertained and fed in town, less than a 7-mile drive from your modern log cabin retreat. There are tons of Appalachian restaurants, museums, shops, shows, rides, and more — something for everyone in the heart of Pigeon Forge! Shop for hours at The Mountain Mile, excavate at Dig’n Zone Theme Park, ride mountain coasters, race go-karts, toss a coin in the wishing fountain at The Old Mill Square, and beat escape games at The Island.

Nestled in a great location, you can easily drive from your beautiful cabin in Pigeon Forge to neighboring Sevierville, Wears Valley, or Gatlinburg for even more options. And don’t forget to plan outdoor activities in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, like hiking, horseback riding, or fly fishing with spectacular views.

Dollywood Theme Park
Form a brigade and march your group into Dollywood for a full day of fun, riding roller coasters, listening to live bluegrass, snacking on Southern treats, and making memories!

TopJump Trampoline & Extreme Arena
Need something a little more active for your group? Plan a bouncy time at TopJump, where trampolines, climbing walls, games, and a ninja course await!

Comedy Barn Theater
Take the gang to laugh their socks off, slap their knees, and succumb to giggle fits at the Comedy Barn Theater, a family-friendly hilarious show!

Spacious, comfortable and convenient

We had plenty of room to stretch out and relax with family and friends. All of the bedrooms had a private bathroom which was perfect. The cabin was stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of towels including pool towels. 4 microwaves which were very handy for our group. Kitchen layout was great for hosting the graduation dinner. Cabin was clean. Pool table was a hit for the big kids. Hot tub was nice. Pool was fun for the kids. Deck furniture was like new. We would rent it again.
Response from Cabins for You

It sounds like the pool table and hot tub brought lots of fun for everyone, which makes us happy. We truly appreciate you noticing the details like towels and deck furniture—it means a lot. We’d love to welcome you back again soon for another great stay. Thanks so much for sharing your experience!

Perfect Stay for Large Families!

½ (4.5/5)We stayed at the Big Forest Lodge by Cabins for You and had an amazing experience! The cabin was beautiful, clean, and had a cozy, homey feel that made our entire family feel comfortable right away. The kitchen was well-equipped and the bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and spotless.One thing we really appreciated was the pool door alarm—especially helpful since we had babies traveling with us. The décor was lovely and added to the welcoming vibe of the house. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, which was a nice bonus for a big group like ours.Our only small complaint was the dull kitchen knives and the small pans, which made cooking large meals for our family a bit tricky. We ended up making a quick trip to Walmart to grab better ones, so it worked out fine.Overall, we give this cabin a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars and would absolutely recommend it to other families planning a group trip. We’d definitely love to stay again!
Response from Cabins for You
Thank you so much for sharing such a thoughtful and detailed review—it truly means a lot. It’s wonderful to hear your family felt so at home and appreciated the extra safety features. We completely understand how tricky it can be cooking for a big group and truly value you pointing that out. Can’t wait to welcome you back for another cozy getaway!

Weekend reunion

It was a very spacious property and a great setup for our reunion. Overall the property was great. Each family loved having their own private bathroom. Several room options for the kids to bunk up together. The decor and cleanliness was great. The only negatives were the hot tub took the entire weekend to warm up. The house took a solid day to cool down, and the pool was frigid and rarely used. Maintenance was called to check on the pool but we never had a warm pool. There were a few maintenance issues during our short stay as well but nothing that was too inconvenient. Be cautious on renting this if a pool is a must.
Response from Cabins for You
Nilesh, thank you so much for your honest feedback! We are thrilled to hear that you and your family enjoyed your overall stay with us. We have looked into the concern of the pool and this has since been rectified. We will make sure to reach out in regards to the hot tub as well to make sure this is functioning properly. We truly hope to be able to host you and your family again in the future!
