The Sevier County Electric System’s “Tennessee Connections” magazine for Spring 2024 posted this article on Tuckaleechee Caverns that we thought was worth sharing here.

Their article is as follows: SCES Celebrates 85 Years And Its Oldest Customers As Sevier County Electric System celebrates its…

In the early 2010s, the industry growing the fastest in the Smokies was the distillery industry. In the mid-2010s, the fasted growing industry in the Smokies was the ziplining industry. In the late 2010s into early 2021 it was the roadside rollercoasters that were the top new thing getting developed throughout our area. Now, beginning sometime in 2022 and continuing to bring more in today, the fastest growing industry taking the center spotlight are recreational vehicle rentals in the Smokies.…

One of the most unique and attention-getting parkway attractions between Sevierville and Pigeon Forge (and with that same street having King Kong, a Hollywood Mount Rushmore, the Titanic hitting an iceberg and an upside-down White House, that’s really saying something) is getting a major new addition with the “FlyRide” attraction coming to Beyond The Lens in Sevier County. That’s the attraction with the giant hands and camera. Oh, and the other large building that’s been toppled over. The best…

The city of Gatlinburg has no shortage of restaurants to serve just about every taste under the sun, but one of our favorite places that we like to post on our network of websites about every so often is the Three Jimmys on Highway 321 in Gatlinburg. We have gotten to enjoy Three Jimmys so much that we have been going there at least once a month for dinner, drinks and meetings with other clients. We have some of our…

A new era of virtual reality is forming around us in the early 2020s; and one place where that technology is literally soaring (or as close to it as virtual reality can allow) is the SkyFly attraction at The Island in Pigeon Forge. Their official brochure provides the details: “Great Ready To Take Flight! SkyFly: Soar America utilizes a state-of-the-art ride system to give you the feeling of flight.

Memories are made in the Smokies! Especially when you bring your wife/husband and kids to share the experiences with or plan for a family reunion that gathers all the most nearby relatives like a spherical vacuum of vacation opportunities pulling everyone into Pigeon Forge like a gravitational nexus point (it could happen), the fairest city west of the National Park and east of Knoxville provides more family-centered opportunities than you could do in a month of constant activity. And the…

The Smoky Mountains is popular as a family-friendly destination for younger family getaways and family reunions for a good reason: consideration and provisions for the variety of those who come here. Dollywood is an incredible Smoky Mountain experience, but not everyone can afford to go and bring all the kids there once they get here. Many families looking to get their children’s energy spent before all their vacation budget also need convenience and ease of getting in and out to…
