We have four families looking to spend a weekend together skiing and tubing. We would like to all pile in one house/lodge with a common room to all hang out together if possible. 17 people. Any suggestions?

There are plenty of lodging around Maggie Valley that will suite your needs

There are plenty of giant cabins around there. We used AirBNB as well and we had 12 in our group, but I think our cabin slept up to 18.

I usually book with AirBnB but there are other sites you could check like home away, funjet, real joy, etc.

The cabin that I rented will fit 6 peoples but I now they have a bigger ones there You shoul call to find out before.
