Gatlinburg

It was a nice peaceful city I was only there two days for a sorority retreat it was great. I also like going to the lift it has a nice view of the city!

I only suggest this place to people who like to shop (for mostly worthless, touristy things, and knick knacks) and people who love nature. There are a few small attractions but most of them (like aquariums, Rippley’s, minigolf etc) can be found in a bigger city near you. Dollywood is not too far away though.

The mountains, waterfalls, and creeks are breathtaking. That would be the best thing about this place. If it is not your main reason for going, you will be disappointed.

Just remember there is nothing I mean nothing you can do in this town for free other than walk and look… but its a nice place to visit in the winter time when there is snow on the ground

need I say more? :-)

I went to gatlinburg to attend a friend’s wedding. The surrounding forest looked beautiful, but Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge are tourist traps. Gatlinburg isn’t big enough to handle the number of visitors it gets. The street gets packed with cars making it very difficult to turn into or out of parking lots. If I were to go back, I would definitely stay out of town and try to enjoy the countryside, which was some of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen.

If you do find yourself in town, the aquarium is surprisingly worth visiting. I didn’t think I’d be interested, but I’m glad I got dragged there.

Its been a good 10 years since i’ve been to tennesee so im sure much has changed. What i remember of this place…. the mountains are very beautiful and i loved driving around in the country just staring out the window at the scenery and taking pictures of the mountains. I remember Gatlinburg being full of little shops and being very touristy, but hey isnt that why some of us go? Some days were very busy and crowded, but i got to do some fun things. Its a family friendly place with lots of fun stuff to do and see. You can stay in town or travel out into the mountains. You cant go and NOT experience the mountains, hiking, or caves!

Don’t go here on a two or even a three day weekend.

I am serious. I would give this place a minimum of a week to be able to do everything you want to do, because there is so much here. They have shops, attractions, dinner-and-shows up the wazoo…you name it, they have it! They even have rides up on the mountain that you can get to via a air trolley.

to go with your entire family…

I got married here March 20th 2007

I liked the cabin and the mountains, but the town was a little tourist-y.

was a long time ago… and I plan to visit again, maybe this summer, and since I’m older now I’ll definitely remember more things and take more pics with my own camera :D
