My family and I have been visiting Big Trees Village for years. My wife’s grandparents built a cabin here in 1980 in which they lived and vacationed for over 20 years. Big Trees has a special place in our hearts and we try to come back with our family every few years to reminisce and create new memories.Dave’s Den had everything our family needed. We were able to share meals at the large dining table and deck tables each night, play pool and games together in the loft, stay up watching TV together in the comfortable living area, and sleep soundly on the very comfortable beds. Dave thought of everything, including WiFi and a computer, TVs with streaming services in each room, BTV recreation center passes, pool towels, and loads of sports equipment to enjoy outdoors as well. He was very responsive to our questions and accommodating to our specific needs. (Thanks!)This was the perfect family cabin in a great location in Big Trees Village! We will be back!

The property was in a very beautiful and scenic area. The cabin was amazing. With not only so many rooms, but also 3 full bathrooms, it was a fantastic stay.
