Sleeps 22, 2 Homes | Theater Room, Game Room, Hot Tub, Smoky Mountain Views

Welcome to Big Bear Lodge & Big Bear Cove by AvantStay! These two homes are just minutes apart in the scenic hills of Sevierville, with a combined total of 10 bedrooms, sleeping up to 22 guests—an ideal option for family reunions, group celebrations, or retreats where everyone wants space to spread out and come together.

Set against the backdrop of the Great Smoky Mountains, this buyout offers the best of both worlds: secluded serenity and easy access to the action. You’ll be just a short drive from Pigeon Forge, Dollywood, and Gatlinburg, with unbeatable views, wraparound decks, and amenities like hot tubs, game rooms, and private theaters designed to keep your whole group entertained. Whether you’re hiking through mountain trails, sipping coffee while the sun rises over the peaks, or gathering for sunset dinners outdoors, these cabins offer a true taste of Appalachian magic.

Big Bear Lodge is your group’s grand gathering space. With three expansive levels, a gourmet kitchen (plus a second prep kitchen), and cozy communal areas centered around a stone fireplace, it’s built for connection and comfort. A private theater room, game room with billiards and foosball, and multiple decks with panoramic views ensure there’s never a dull moment. Seven spacious bedrooms, including a bunk room ideal for kids or teens, each come with plush bedding and ensuite bathrooms, so everyone can retreat and recharge at their own pace.

Big Bear Cove brings rustic charm and playful energy to the mix. Perched above the treetops, this three-bedroom cabin sleeps 10 and features a vaulted great room, lofted game lounge with a poker table and sleeper sofas, and a pool table downstairs. The outdoor fireplace, bubbling hot tub, and rocking chairs on the wraparound deck set the stage for starry nights and slow mornings. Each bedroom includes a king bed and luxurious ensuite bathroom, giving your group even more space to relax in style.

Together, Big Bear Lodge & Big Bear Cove offer the ultimate Smoky Mountain group getaway—two distinct cabins, one unforgettable experience.

If you love spending time in nature, staying active, and celebrating wildlife, a trip to the Great Smoky Mountains is a must.
