I don't live there, but I've been to Gatlinburg a million times over the past 40 years.
Main street Gatlinburg is a giant tourist trap & Pigeon Forge is the same. Dollywood is a pretty good amusement park with some really good roller coasters.
Get out of the town & go hit/hike the Smokey Mountains. Beware of black bears, they are out there.
Go by Bud's Gun Shop.... That place is AWESOME!!!
Nope but grew up near there, my advice is avoid it as it's all one big tourist trap nowadays. As @BadMotoWeazal said, get out into the mountains, hike, fish and enjoy it. Cades Coves is pretty cool, if you're into scenery and history.
You gonna do some butt-chugging with the Vole brothers?

It is a big tourist trap.....could not wait to get the hell out of there.....its a womens type of place for shopping.....even the Moonnshine shops you can buy in stores,I want the real mccoy if Im drinking moonshine.
Pigeon Forge is the same,could not wait to gtf outta there.....
Cades Cove is a good place to go to see wildlife up and close.....the Bears we seen were a little fsr awsy,but the mule deer were up close and personal.
Loved the mountains,nothing like the Rockies,but still a fun place....loved the scenery driving thru it.....
we hiked it up to one of the waterfalls and seen a bear actually walk right by some people and made its way down to another section of the cliff and walked about 10 ft below us......was not epecting that.

I took my family there memorial day weekend, 2023. We stayed at two block off of the main street in Gatlinburg. We ate breakfast and dinner there but for the most part we either hit the trail or spent the day at Dollywood.

Cheap to fly into Nashville. But damn gatlinburg and areas are damn pricey.
I checked Dollywood and it’s like &
$94 a person. Screw that. I’m going to hike and enjoy the outdoors
Was there a couple weeks ago. Franklin, actually. My company opened up a new facility in a building we miraculously found relatively cheap - not far from a Lamborghini dealership. The 5 of us (me, corporate president + wife, corporate vice president, new facility's manager) ate at Perry's for a celebratory dinner. Damn good food, but the bill was about $1000.
Nashville is the new Atlanta, Northerners and West Coasters moving there and ruining it for everyone, especially the locals.

You have to go damn near two counties away now to find anything affordable. No, thanks!
Sperry's was one of the options we were considering. We heard that place was pretty good, too. We chose Perry's mainly because it was close to our hotel and was also recommended by a local. Turned out to be a good choice; if I lived in the area I'd go there regularly (if someone else was paying).
