Planning a successful family reunion takes organization. Follow these four steps to create a memorable gathering at Moose Hollow Lodge.
Step 1: Coordinate Dates for Your Smoky Mountain Getaway
Start by surveying family members for availability at least 12 to 18 months in advance. Our large lodge in Pigeon Forge is a premier choice for reunions, meaning summer months and major holidays fill up quickly. Booking early not only ensures everyone can attend but also gives you the best selection of dates to fit your group's specific needs.
Step 2: Simplify the Reunion Budget and Shared Expenses
Divide the nightly rate among families for affordable per-family costs. Factor in shared groceries and any group activities. Our all-inclusive amenities eliminate many extra expenses.
Step 3: Organize Activities
Create a mix of group activities and free time. Plan one or two outings (Dollywood, hiking) and leverage our on-site amenities for other entertainment. Don't over-schedule - reunion magic happens in unplanned moments.
Step 4: Assign Responsibilities
Delegate tasks: meal planning, activity coordination, supplies. Shared responsibility makes the reunion enjoyable for everyone, including the organizers.
