My favorite vacation

This was my first time in the mountains, and I will never forget that first magical view from the deck. After spending the days in the chaos of a busy pigeon forge, this cabin was the perfect relaxation spot. It was quiet and calm. The kids had room to play, and the adults had room to relax. I will be missing that view for a long time. The cabin is beautiful and clean. Plenty spacious. I will miss this cabin for a long time.

Family all in one place!

We had such a wonderful time at the Big Kahuna. There were 21 of us total - 13 adults and 8 children under 10 years old! There was nothing lacking in this cabin - the outdoor cooking space and appliances were beyond perfect! So much space for all of us to get outdoors or stay inside, depending on the day. The property and the neighbors were wonderful and we had an amazing vacation there. We even renewed our vows in Gatlinburg for our 45th. Anniversary. Blessed to have all 6 grown children and their families with us. Couldn’t think of anything else we needed while we were there. We did call maintenance about 2 little issues and they came and were very helpful! Thank you for sharing your place with us!

Top of the World View

Our family has rented large cabins every Christmas for the last several years. The Big Kahuna was by far the best equipped we have ever stayed in. All high end appliances, fully stocked kitchen with any utensils you might need. The most amazing views and outdoor set up you can ever need. We felt like we were secluded and had tons of privacy. Communication with the property managers was fantastic. Tiny issues were addressed immediately. Ample amount of towels, etc. If I have to list a negative at all, it would be that the mattress in the master needs replacing soon and the confusion of trying to navigate the media room remote. Maybe better instructions for us older folks as our young ones figured it out just fine. We will be back to the Big Kahuna. Thank you for an amazing time and new memories with our family. Overall, you cannot go wrong choosing this cabin. We had plenty of room for our group of 21. Gene and Ana were so helpful and were Johnny on the spot to help us. Thank you again for an amazing stay!!

Mixed feelings

This property has a lot of great potential. All of the adults on our trip agreed that we would love to actually own the place. The cabin’s layout was great. Plenty of room. Good location. Really nice views, and the outdoor kitchen/deck area was amazing. However, there are issues: 1- several of the mattresses need replaced, especially I can speak to the master bedroom on the main floor. Horrible mattress…painful to sleep on…old…really old. 2. The internet. The owner has a sign up about the internet being only for checking emails and doing basic online searching. It goes on to say something along the lines of you are here for the mountains, not the internet and you can’t expect to have good internet here in the mountains. I suppose that sounds reasonable…except that it isn’t. We have been going to the Smokies for about 25 years now. Starting about 10 years ago, high speed internet became common place in the rental units we were finding. We have stayed much further out, in much more remote areas and never had internet service this bad. In this day-and-age, high speed internet should be the expectation. Not some snarky comment telling you to get over the fact that you don’t have it. 3- the online pictures (at least at the time we viewed them for making our rental) lead you to believe there are two hot tubs. There is only one. One hot tub isn’t a big deal other than the fact that the pics have you expecting to find two. 4- the listing makes mention of high end finishings. Not so much. Besides the mattresses that need replaced, lots of the furniture was clearly past it’s life expectancy. Some things were high end, like the kitchen appliance and the outdoor space, but overall, I can’t agree with the idea of high end finishings. It honestly has the feel of a “flip”…buy a mess…put some lipstick on it and sell for a profit…or in this case, rent it out. 5- the front door needs serious attention. It is warped to the point that the electronic lock can’t operate properly. You have to push/pull on it to allow the lock to work. The little kids in our group were unable to open it. That could be a serious safety issue in an emergency. 6- The swing set in the front yard isn’t anchored properly. 7- one of the upstairs bathroom had no blinds/curtains on the window. Overall, the place has real potential. Unfortunately it gives you the sense that this is only an investment and the owner has probably never tried staying there themselves for any length of time.

Terrific Property and Location

We were very happy with this property. It was just as described in the VRBO listing. Everything in the house was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The outdoor deck area with the kitchen (gas grill, Blackstone flat-top grill, sink) was a huge plus. Our group was 22, ranging in age from 1 month to 66. There was plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen and eating areas were nice. The double decks with room to be in or out of the sun were great. Convenient location to go to Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, or the Park. We would definitely stay here again when back in the area.

Great view of the Smokey’s

Our group of 15 ranged from ages 3-65. We had an absolutely great time. There was plenty of room to spread out. The view from the deck was amazing. We had fun using the outdoor kitchen, play set and an awesome fort for the kids. We had maintaince there one time and they were prompt and friendly. We even had a bear come to visit. 😬 The drive up the mountain to the property was very easy and only about 10 mins to Pigeon Forge. I would definitely go back!
