The Big Buck Lodge was the perfect setting for our sibling reunion. The 8 bedroom, 8 bath setup worked great since we had 8 couples. There was sufficient dining space and loved the double stoves, refrigerators, and dishwashers setup. Something you don't know how nice it is to have until you have it. After a day of adventures we found the deck overlooking the mountains a perfect happy hour spot. The hot tub felt wonderful also. The owner was informative and pleasant to work with. The place was clean and well appointed. Highly recommend for your group!

Our group absolutely had a wonderful time staying at Big Buck Lodge! We held a Bible Retreat with our group while staying at the cabin. There was a lot of laughs and good fellowship this week! The cabin is in a great location and close to downtown Gatlinburg with about a 20 minute drive to Pigeon Forge which is still very close. The cabin was very clean and we had everything that we needed for our stay! The area is very peaceful and quiet too! The owner is very easy to reach and she is very informative with information which I appreciate! Definitely would recommend others to stay with Buckhead Rentals!

We had an amazing stay at Big Buck Lodge while celebrating a friend’s 50th birthday! Traveling with a group of 16 can be tricky, but this house was perfect—every couple had their own bedroom and bathroom, which made a huge difference in comfort and privacy. One of our favorite features was the kitchen setup. Having two of all the major appliances was a game changer, especially the extra fridge—we definitely needed one just for beverages (cheers to the birthday boy!). The home was well-equipped for a large group and made hosting meals and hanging out easy and enjoyable. We also loved the game room and all the entertainment options—it kept everyone laughing and having fun all weekend. The location is ideal, with easy access to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, so there was plenty to do nearby. Communication with the hosts was excellent from start to finish. The house was easy to find, and check-in was smooth and hassle-free. One unforgettable moment: we actually had a bear get in one of our cars in the early morning hours! It was unbelievable that it didn't destroy anything (just a little dirty!) - and a good reminder to remove all food and trash from your car when you arrive, and keep your car and the house doors locked at all times for safety. The only minor issue was that a few of the dining chairs could use a little TLC, but we shared that feedback with the owners and it didn’t take away from our experience at all. Overall, we had a fantastic weekend and would absolutely recommend booking this cabin. We’d happily stay at Big Buck Lodge again or with any Buckhead Rentals property!
