Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg

No comment on campground but last time we went we stayed over toward townsend on a tip from a local - less traffic but the main think I wanted to add is it is well worth the drive for 2 - 3 things. first Tuckaleechee Caverns is beautiful and a great visit, the riding stable right by the entrance rd to the caverns and a beautiful ride. also after many visits to the smokeys - EVERY time we went to cades cove we saw black bears - otherwise they have been pretty elusive
