Best Things About the Resort:
The resort is nestled in the mountains. We stayed in unit 354 on the 5th floor. The unit was spacious.

Resort Experience:
We had a large bedroom with a king-size bed which was very comfortable, with a TV and sliding doors onto a balcony; a large bathroom with a Jacuzzi bath and separate walk-in shower. There was also a sliding door onto the balcony from the living room, which also had a fireplace, TV, VCR, and stereo sound system. We had a full kitchen. The view from our balcony was breathtaking; all you could see was the Smokey Mountains. The unit was spacious, neat, and well-maintained. It is also centrally located to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge and the attractions, shows, etc. There was an outdoor pool and tennis courts on-site.

The meals were excellent, with large portions, and service was great. The atmosphere and displays in the restaurant showed Alabama's history of performance, along with memorabilia of several singers.

The park is nestled in the mountains; it's built to look like living in the Smokys. One section is shops and craftsmen; another section is dedicated to Dolly's life; there is an area with rides for children and adults; several pavillions with performers and restaurants; and food booths along the way. It made for a very enjoyable day for everyone.

Terry Clark put on a very energetic concert. She kept the audience alive; between songs, she told little stories about her and her past performances. We had a great time and would definitely attend another concert if she were in our area.

It was a guided tour with a guide pointing out all the interesting facts of the Smokey Mountains: the area where the Appalachian trail passes through, where you can stand on one side and be in Tennessee and the other side of the sign and be across the state line. He told us what wildlife and trees are found in the Smoky Mountains.
