FRONT DOOR TO THE SMOKIES

by miner - last update: Jul 10, 2004

Smoky Mountains
PIGEON FORGE AND THE SMOKY MOUNTAIN AREA ARE PROBABLY ONE OUR FAVORITE VACATION SPOTS. THERE IS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE AND WE ALWAYS SEEMED TO RUN OUT OF TIME AND MONEY BEFORE WE WERE READY TO LEAVE.I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT IN THE FALL WHEN THE FOLIAGE IS COLORFUL,BUT IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN BEAUTIFUL IN THE SUMMER ALSO.

 Neither I nor the wife liked this place! Very low-rate and the food was not very good. Yes, it was cheap, and the quality reflected the price.
