Shop-a-holics heaven.........
Shop-a-holics heaven...... Pigeon forge is a mecca of factory outlet malls and stores. Almost everything is along the one 4 lane road that goes down the middle of town. several country dinner theaters and music museums (after all it is Dolly Partons home).
Dollywood is great for naturalists and crafters but not too good for kids looking for thrill rides (My two teenagers were 13 and 14 at the time and gave it a 'not so hot').
Go cart tracks and helicopter rides aboud and it IS in the Smokiy mountains so is great place to just kick back and enjoy.
Gatlinburg is just 10 mins up the highway and is another nice 'small town' small shops and fantastic restaurants. Any and all restaurants are good and 'southern or Counry cookin' is all around as well as the serving sizes. Everyone there felt like old friends, if you needed directions or just want to pass the time everyone has the time and seems to enjoy. Is like going home on your first trip
