NE Ohio to Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg TN
We are considering taking a trip to the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge TN area during the last week in August with the motorhome and would like some advice on campgrounds and routes to help us plan our trip....

I don't think anyone has said Maggie Valley yet, it is a nice break from the throngs of people with just enough town to have some good eating and you are on the south east side of the park, a side less visited, we just spent 6 days at Cataloochee CG (no hook ups and very narrow windy gravel road).
we usually stay in the park or mile high CG, we go for the hiking and cool weather and not the people, and noise.
out of the 31 times we have been in the smokies we still like it other than PF and GB, we will hit the chocolate factory in GB to get our treats, and a couple outdoor stores looking for something er other and then head into the park never to see town again, If I had to pick a favorite NP CG it would be smokemont I guess, as it is close to the BRP and we always explore the south 60 miles or so each time we go down.
