    "Big Bear"

    Check in/ check out was very simple. We brought a lot of things that we didn’t need like pots & pans. The cabin had literally everything we needed including wine glasses for all of us! Nice vie…w. Coming up to the cabin was a little scary because the roads were small, so if another car came the opposite way some one would have to pull over. Overall I am very satisfied, and so was everyone else!

    "Big Bear- Elk Springs Resort: "

    We had a wonderful experience and a great vacation at the Elk Springs Resort. We were a large group of 22 people and stayed at the Big Bear 7 cabin. Everything was wonderful. The cabin far exceeded ou…r expectations. It was sparkling clean when we checked in. The cleaning crew had just left and you could smell the fresh lime and freshly mopped floors. The cabin was beautiful!!!! Cannot day enough about the place. The views from outside were just great.! There was lots of room for everyone and could have easily slept 34 people. There were plenty of towels, and soaps in each room. The kids had a blast with the game room and the home theater. This family get together was a huge success!! We will definitely recommend this place.

    "Family Reunion Vacation"

    We had 25 people staying in the cabin on a family reunion/vacation. Nine of the 25 were kids. Three guest members could not do stairs. The cabin had something to offer for everyone, and space to ge…t away if you needed a few minutes to yourself. Great experience!

    "A Phenomenal Getaway"

    The entire house was more than what we could have expected for a weekend getaway. For the majority of our group, this was our first time in the Smoky Mountains and the views from the Big Bear Lodge m…ade it an exceptional trip. Unfortunately the weather was not cooperative all weekend and we even woke up to snow on the ground on Sunday morning which forced us to have to stay in the lodge the majority of the trip. Thank you so much for providing us with an amazing cabin to have a great weekend.

    "Amazing view "

    To start off the house was ready earlier than normal check in time so we arrived to a very clean and spacious cabin. Location was great and had an amazing view of the mountain tops with wrap around de…cks with multiple chairs for everyone. Bedrooms were spotless and two large tables were great for family dinner. Would recommend to anyone looking for a getaway weekend with open floor plans to have everyone be collaborating together.

    "Youth retreat"

    We had 28 people for a weekend church youth retreat and there was plenty of space and entertainment for the kids. The cabin was well stocked with cooking items and toiletries. The views were amazing. …The management was amazing at keeping us up to date on conditions around us (it was December and snowing) and made sure the cabin was up to our standards. The kids enjoyed themselves and would go back again.

    "Big Bear Lodge"

    Our family of 21 (grandma age 80, 6-age 50 something, 9 age 25-30, and 4 little ones ages 1-5, just returned from Elk Springs Resort- Big Bear Lodge.This property gets a 4.5 star rating from our famil…y. We would all go back and recommend it highly to friends traveling to the area. We have rented a summer vacation home every year for over 30 years in various places around the central and southern US, so we know the details that families are looking for and have a lot to compare this property to.

    You are in the mountains, and it is a beautiful drive up the mountain! The parking area is large (probably comfortably 8 parking spaces) and is on a flat plain area of the mountain so seems very safe. It is only 20-25 minutes to downtown Gatlinburg and Dollywood, so very convenient between the 2 towns either way you go, and not a difficult drive between either, in fact, enjoyable.
    The decks are very usable and safe as long as an adult stays with the kiddos. The lower level has a convenient outdoor hose so we filled up a little blow up pool for our young kids next to the hot tub that they used daily.
    The kitchen is well equipped, blender, bullet, skillets, wine glasses, mixer, large fridge, and another small one for drinks on the top level.
    The bedrooms all have their own mirror and sink, so no need to feel like you are taking up the bathroom for lengths of time to do hair or apply make-up. VERY convenient? the best set up for bedrooms bathrooms I have ever seen in 30 years of vacation rentals.
    Each floor has its own central air conditioner unit and temperature control, so none of the freezing up if you like to run it a 70-72 that can be a problem in large rentals. Bedroom stayed cool even on the top floor.
    The pool table is in a huge room, plenty of space to have other things going on around it, like a table for family puzzle, card game, we even set up our giant Jenga game and used it while pool games were going on in the same room.

    We stayed here with the majority of our soccer team and we had the best time! It was such a nice place, everyone could spread out on the three floors and three decks. The kitchen was amazing because m…ost of us could all sit together for meals. Wonderful cabin! Highly recommend it!

    "perfect silent slipaway"

    Check in was a breeze since we didn?t have to try and find a rental office and get the code to the door in at night. The cabin was perfect in size and space for the 15 people traveling with me. The se…tup of bathrooms was very convenient since we had guest sleeping on the sofas as well as the rooms. The kitchen was a good size for the group of women that prepared food for our group. The dining area comfortably allow all to eat as one family. The location was great since sometimes a group this size can get quite noisy. Check out was just as simple as check in. It was a perfect getaway for me and my family.

    "Great getaway "

    The Big Bear Lodge was the perfect place for me and all my guest. It provided each couple with their own room and bathroom.
    The best part was that we all could sit down and eat together at one ta…ble.
    they enjoyed playing games and shooting pool.
    The view was awesome, we watch the sunrise and sunset from the wrap around deck.
    In the morning we could see why it is named Smoky Mountains, because the clouds sit right on top of the mountains.

    I rented the cabin for my boyfriends 30th birthday and we had a fantastic experience. 17 total people shared the cabin with more than enough space. The cabin was beautifully appointed and the rooms …were all very comfortable. The cabin was a bit far from ober gatlinburg I would definitely rent this cabin again for a large group

    Love how uniform the bedrooms were. Made it fair with us all paying, no master suite. Fantastic with the king rooms having a queen bed as well and not just a pull out or futon. Really liked bedroom locations on separate levels.

    "Family Reunion 2014"

    What a beautiful cabin, very secluded with a great view, away from all the hustle bustle of Pigeon Ford. We had 14 people, the accommodations were perfect, plenty of bathrooms and bedrooms for all…, 2 game rooms, wrap around porches on each of the 3 floors, and a huge kitchen table gave everyone the space they needed. Cabin was in very good shape, Kitchen was fully furnished and there was plenty of space to move around, TV setup was a bit flaky and cut out regularly but, the view solved that.( we didn't watch much TV)
    I checked out the community pool (shared by a few cabins), it was very clean an warm, great for kids but a hike to get to if walking.

    As for the management company, I give them 10 stars, they were completely accommodating and attentive. They checked up on us the first day to ensure we got checked in and situated. I would recommend renting any property from them. Nice Work!
