“This glamping site strikes an interesting balance, placing you near enough to Pigeon Forge for convenience, but far enough away to feel immersed in the Smokies. The tent accommodations offer a unique, comfortable experience with king-sized beds and private bathrooms. It's a memorable way to experience the outdoors without sacrificing too many comforts.”
