class c in the smoky mountain national park

[dave17352]

I have a 27 foot Class C. It is 11 feet foot in height. I am considering whether or not to rent a car. We plan to be there for up to six days and we have a reservation in Pigeon Forge. I have plenty of experience in driving a class C as my Truck Camper combo is the same length and height! I am looking for opinions on if I should rent a car or not. We like site seeing in the Rig for the convenience but want to know if it would be practical. We will be there during the week so it should help with crowds.

Thanks in advance!

Been there twice a year for over 50 years. You should be fine. Traffic in PF and Gatlinburg will be busy busy then it is busy for a VW also.

We've done Blue Ridge and Smokey Mountains plenty of times in our Truck Camper, 22' long and 11' tall... never have a problem. We drive a 4x4 Short-bed, with a Lance 845.
