Traveler advice
Getting around
The weekend traffic can be a bear (pun intended)
The cabin is located where you can avoid many of the major thoroughfares that can become crowded. Use Google Maps to avoid the major streets. Most places can be accessed using backroads. Pittman Center Road can be a good option to travel to Gatlinburg. Teaster Rd is a good route to many places in Pigeon Forge. Collier Rd is the preferred route to North Pigeon Forge/South Sevierville and Walmart. Hwy 411 is the best route back to I-40 toward Knoxville, Foothills Pkwy is the best route to I-40 to destinations East of Knoxville.
Getting around
Trolley can be a good option to get around
Guests can drive a short distance to Trolley Stop park and use the Trolley to travel about. Parking in Gatlinburg can be dicey. Use the trolley to go to Gatlinburg Visitor Center, change trolleys and avoid parking issues in Gatllinburg. The trolley is also a good option on the weekends when traffic is more congested.
