Exceptional Stay

We had an exceptional experience. Owners were great with communication and the house was very nicely stocked with everything we needed. The home was just as described, super clean, tons of activities to do inside from the large indoor pool to the hot tub and the theater room as well as all the games and billiard table. The beds were very comfortable and the home decor was amazing. Our family had a wonderful time and we will definitely be back

Perfect Getaway

This place is amazing and huge! The kids were entertained the entire time between the pool, theater, smores at the fire pit, roaming the property, soaking in the hot tub, and building forts on the bunk beds. We watched Wicked in the theater and felt like we were at the movies with the awesome sound system. The adults enjoyed poker, pool, and catching up on shows and watching football while lounging in the hot tub. We never felt like we were on top of each other. The drive to Gatlinburg is peaceful and beautiful. My only recommendation is more pool towels. We had 7 people with only 4 pool towels. Nonetheless, this was the perfect way to ring in the New Year. Until next time!

Family Vacation

Beautiful place exactly what we were looking for, but I had a accident while I was there. I had wet feet from the hot tub on the top floor and slipped. I fell all the way down the flight of hard wooded stairs. (16 steps) I was very lucky but I did rip/tear all the tendons in my left arm. My arm is messed up for life without surgery's. There was no had rails (zero) on these steps. With no hand rails is the reason I fell all the way to the bottom. It was a long drive home with only using 1 arm. I wish when I explained this in text to the check in and out person they would of responded in a caring way. They did not even acknowledge my fall when I told them what happened.

Beautiful/ relaxing cabin

Cabin was perfect and just as described! Kids had a blast with the pool and theater room. Cabin was very clean, roomy and had a lot of essentials provided. Fully stocked kitchen, TV with Roku in every room. We really enjoyed our stay. However if you are coming down to explore gatlinburg and pigeon forge like we were, it’s quite the drive into the cities (35-45 minutes to get into town). Would recommend still; and would stay again! Perfect for bigger families, we had 8 total with plenty of room.

Great place!

This cabin did not disappoint! We stayed in more than we went out and was not bored at all even with three teenage boys! We loved everything the cabin offered. The theater room seemed to be the most popular place to be! The cabin was clean and offered everything we needed. The hosts were easy to communicate with when needed. The drive to the cabin is easy with plenty of parking. We loved everything about our stay at the Big Dipper, and would stay here again & again!

This cabin did not disappoint at all. The pictures do not do the cabin any justice. It’s very big and spacious. Jamie was awesome with communication and the cabin was not hard to find and is in the center of everything. I would definitely book again and look forward to booking it.

The cabin was amazing! It’s just what we were looking for, close but not in the core Pigeon Forge area. Easy to getaway from the craziness. The hosts were fantastic with communication and got back to you on anything very quickly. This was the perfect place for a nice getaway!

Perfect weekend getaway!

Our family loved this cabin! Between the indoor pool and the movie theater we didn’t leave at all our first full day. The kids loved the area too. We took a walk one day and the surrounding woods were just beautiful. The location was ideal too. We were close enough to go to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge for some attractions but not so close that we had to deal with crazy traffic and crowds. The hosts were also super kind and dry responsive. We will definitely be back!

What a fantastic vacation!

My family and I enjoyed such a relaxing and enjoyable thanksgiving at this home. From the moment of booking up until after checkout, communication with the homeowners was so quick and clear. The home was in a quiet and safe area. It was only about 35 minutes from the gatlinburg area which allowed for plenty of entertainment when our family wanted to get out. Honestly, the home was so stocked with games, movies, fast internet, pool, and lounging areas, spending time in the home was the most enjoyable part of our vacation. The home was stocked with plenty of starter packs of cleaning items, kitchen pans, towels, it was a smooth transition. We could not recommend this home more!

We had the best time while visiting this beautiful home! Very clean, lots of things to do to keep the kids busy, the owners really did think of everything to have to make the stay comfortable! We even extended our stay we loved it so much. Not too far from things to do, and not too close, so still peaceful and quiet at the same time. The owner was very helpful and kind and always responsive to any questions we had. We will definitely be visiting again!! Thanks for having us!

The house is breathtaking. Very clean, comfortable, and so much fun stuff to do. There were days we just wanted to stay in and enjoy the pool, hot tub, pool table, foosball table and theater room instead of going into town. Communication with the owners was prompt and professional. I highly recommend staying here.
