Bring the whole family together in a Pigeon Forge cabin, and make memories to last a lifetime. Try these ideas for family fun!
1. Play Board Games
Pack your Uno cards, Monopoly, and all the games you keep meaning to play but never find time to enjoy back home. Why not play outside, on the cabin’s deck?
2. Go Fishing
Pick a cabin next to a river or fishing pond, and give the kids an old-fashioned outdoor getaway. Bring your fishing poles and show the kids how to catch (and release!) fish. It’s a great way to bond in the fresh air.
3. Watch Wildlife
Is that the hoot of an owl? The rustle of deer, just outside the cabin? See how many animals your family can spot. The Smokies are home to hundreds of bird species, colorful salamanders, bold wild turkeys, and mysterious coyotes. It’s not unusual to spy bears near cabins, so keep your eyes peeled and your camera charged.
4. Enjoy the Cabin’s Game Room
Pool tables are common in Smokies cabins. If you’ve never played, look up the rules and have a blast learning! Look for cabins with foosball, air hockey, and arcade games with classics like Donkey Kong and Pac-Man. Challenge the family to a tournament. The winner picks dinner!
5. Hold a Film Festival
Cabins feature flat-screen TVs in living rooms, bedrooms, or in-cabin movie theaters. Let the kids pick their favorites to share with you. Then show them your own favorite flicks from when you were their age.
6. Cook Together
Let teens take charge of a cookout, or help younger kids make brownies in the cabin's fully equipped kitchen. Hand down family recipes while you’ve got time.
7. Do Simple Crafts
Try sun prints: Tape leaves and blossoms to construction paper, then put the paper against a window, leaf side out. The sun leaves a ghostly image of the leaves on the paper! It’s a souvenir of the Smokies’ natural beauty.
8. Use the Outdoor Fire Pit
We offer more than two dozen cabins with fire pits where you can make gooey s’mores and tell ghost stories by firelight.
