THE Cedar Lodge, Games, Hot Tub, Movies

Six bedrooms. Twenty guests. One cabin that has genuinely thought of everything. Picture this: half the group disappearing into the 13-seat private theater while the other half runs the arcade and air hockey table downstairs. Everyone reunites around the fire pit as the Smoky Mountain dark settles in. Then the hot tub. Then nobody wants to go home. Three king suites, a private yard, a gas fireplace, and 10 miles from Pigeon Forge. This is the Smokies done right. Experience the Grand Cedar Lodge.

Welcome to the Grand Cedar Lodge. Six bedrooms. Twenty guests. One cabin that has genuinely thought of everything. Picture this — half the group disappearing into the 13-seat private theater while the other half runs the arcade and air hockey table downstairs. Everyone reuniting around the fire pit as the Smoky Mountain dark settles in. Then the hot tub. Then nobody wants to go home. Three king suites with private baths, a private yard, a gas fireplace, 3,700 square feet across two beautifully remodeled levels, and 10 miles from Pigeon Forge. This is the Smokies for groups who refuse to settle.

Main Level

Step inside to a soaring open-concept great room that immediately signals this is not a typical large-group cabin — warm finishes, comfortable furnishings, and a gas fireplace that anchors the living space with the kind of cozy energy that makes even the biggest groups feel at home. Two sleeper sofas and ample seating keep the whole group connected, with a large flat screen HDTV for movie nights when the theater is already claimed. The fully equipped kitchen is built for serious group cooking — granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and enough seating for six at each of the two dining tables plus five more at the kitchen island, making breakfast for twenty genuinely manageable. Step out from the main level onto the patio and the fire pit, hot tub, and gas BBQ grill are all right there waiting.
The main level houses four of the six bedrooms. Three king suites each feature a king bed, a flat screen HDTV, and a private ensuite bath — two with walk-in showers and one with a tub/shower combo. A fourth bedroom on this level features a queen-size bunk bed and its own HDTV, ideal for kids or overflow guests. A hall bathroom with a tub/shower and an in-unit washer and dryer complete the main floor.

Lower Level

Head downstairs and the energy shifts entirely. The private theater room is the crown jewel of the lower level — 13 reclining theater-style seats, a massive flat screen HDTV, and surround sound that makes movie night feel like a genuine cinematic event. Just outside the theater, the game room delivers hours of competitive fun — arcade machines and an air hockey table that keep the group going long after dinner. Two additional king bedrooms on the lower level each feature a king bed and a flat screen HDTV, with a shared full bath between them.

The Theater & Game Room

The 13-seat private theater is the amenity that sets this cabin apart from virtually every other six-bedroom property in the Smokies market. Reclining theater-style seats, a massive screen, and full surround sound make this a genuine destination within the destination — the kind of room that gets claimed early and surrendered reluctantly. The adjacent game room keeps the competitive energy going between screenings with arcade machines and a full air hockey table, turning rainy afternoons and late evenings into some of the most memorable moments of the trip.

Outdoor Living

The private yard, patio, fire pit, and hot tub give this cabin an outdoor setup that matches every bit of what's inside. Gather around the fire pit as the Smoky Mountain evening settles in — roast marshmallows, tell stories, and let the night stretch out exactly as long as it should. The hot tub seats the group for late-night soaks under a clear East Tennessee sky. The gas BBQ grill makes al fresco dinners completely effortless, and the private yard gives kids and the group real room to spread out and breathe between adventures. Wooded surroundings on every side keep the setting secluded and peaceful regardless of how many people are inside.

Getting Around

You're 10 miles from Pigeon Forge and everything along the Parkway — Dollywood, The Island, live dinner shows, go-karts, restaurants, and family entertainment all within easy reach for a full day out. Soaky Mountain Waterpark and Sevierville Golf Club are just minutes away. Gatlinburg and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park entrance are a short drive for hiking, waterfalls, and scenic drives through one of the most visited national parks in the country.

This is the cabin that handles a group of twenty without anyone feeling like they're roughing it — five king beds, a private theater, a game room, a hot tub, a fire pit, and a yard, all under one beautifully remodeled roof in the heart of the Smokies.
