49 children, spouses and grandchildren. Wonderful time was had by all. Good meeting space, kitchen facilities, gymnasium, outside lawn, and close to many other activities in and around the Great Smokies Park. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

This was a wonderful family friendly place! We had almost all ages and everyone had a great time!

Quiet and country Christmas time with our large family. Lots of space. We loved the place!

The place was alright for us bur seemed pretty neglected. The showers are tiny and shower curtains inadequate so the bathrooms would get wet. But it served the purpose and the owners were they to help with anything that was needed.

We celebrated a family milestone at the lodge. It was perfect for our needs with a large meeting room, full kitchen, and private bedrooms/bathrooms for each couple/family. The gym, playground, and volleyball court kept the kids entertained. The owner was very friendly and accommodating throughout our stay. We recommend this lodge for large group gatherings!

The property managers were very responsive and extremely accommodating for our large family reunion stay. We loved taking walks to the beautiful lake! A few things were disappointing, like there was no tub in room 201 despite being advertised, and the washer and dryer were in a separate facility away from the lodge. The bathrooms could be updated, but overall we really enjoyed our stay. Thanks for hosting us!

We really enjoyed our stay. Plenty of space, especially the prayer hall next to the kitchen was a huge blessing. And kids really enjoyed the gym playing basketball and volleyball. We planned to go to Gatlinburg beforehand, but it would be nice to stay and spend more relaxing time in the property. Maybe next year... Nearby lake swimming was good also.

My family of 50 - including my 8 siblings and all our children and grandchildren enjoyed our week-long vacation at the retreat center and Smoky Mountains. We loved the house having private rooms and bathrooms, the extra bathrooms by the kitchen, the grounds where we played kickball and volleyball and water balloon fight and more! We spent lots of time at the outdoor chess game. We didn't love the size of the showers, and that wifi reception wasn't always good. We felt the owners did a good job of representing the place, we knew what to expect. And they were very responsive to the needs that came up. One thing unexpected and SO nice to have... the pictures don't really show that between the kitchen and fellowship hall there's another room with carpet that was our grand central station. We set up tables in there for coffee bar, snacks, a puzzle, and drink coolers, in addition to having the serving bar for meals and a fridge and chest freezer. I'd suggest the owners add a floorplan to the description, which would help people looking to realize what a gem this place is. And huge! We cooked 3 meals a day in the kitchen and had no problems... plenty of room for people, our stuff, and refrigeration and separate freezer space. Overall, an excellent stay. Thanks, Dan and all who made it nice for us.
