kfp673- There is much more to do for the kids in Pigeon forge/Gatlinburg/Sevierville area than in Nashville in my opinion. Nashville is a nightlife honkey tonk type of place even though there are some things to see otherwise like the Hermitage, Andrew Jacksons home. It has a great museum and the home tour is interesting. If that would hold your kids interest for the 2-3 hours it takes to see. Nashville is a good drive from PF and not really a day trip from there. Separate trips would be better.
PF/G'burg area has everything from putt putt golf on elaborate set-ups to the Aquarium of the Smokies to hiking to waterfalls in the Nat'l park to go carts to dinner shows that are kid friendly and entertaining, Dolly's Stampede is a good show. Wonderworks hands on museum is kid oriented and interesting too. There is always Dollywood and Splash Country too. Lots to do.
The Ridge campground is supposed to open in May I believe but there are a bunch of other CG's to choose from too. Most have pools.Some are located right in the action of things, some are a little off the main drag and quieter.
We live some 20 miles outside of that area and like to play tourist at times ourselves. We love the area.
