Museum
Specialty Museums
The TITANIC Museum Attraction in Pigeon Forge offers an immersive experience dedicated to the famous ship. Shaped like the Titanic itself, the museum features recovered artifacts and interactive exhibits that change annually, focusing on different aspects of the passengers and the ship. Visitors receive a ticket representing a real-life passenger at the start of their journey. Inside, there are replicas of staterooms and dining halls with stunning architectural details matching those of the original Titanic.
WORTH THE STOP. This museum has done an incredible job of remembering the 2,208 lives. The staff is dressed as staff of the ship. Every staff we talked to was incredibly friendly, especially Mark. He made me feel like I was actually walking into the grand staircase for the first time. It’s incredibly beautiful and takes your breath away when you see it. You are given a card of an actual passenger and you find out at the end if you were a survivor. They have over 300 artifacts. It’s just expensive as the other museums in the area, but it’s so worth it. The gift shop also has a large selection of items including the heart of the ocean. Would highly recommend.

It's a nice experience if you're into historian events or if you enjoyed the movie (as they have an entire section devoted to it). We missed a couple of things while on the tour, but it still didn't seem like it was that big. It took us about an hour to finish the tour. Overall, though, it's a nice museum and gives you a very detailed look at the events that occurred.
Russ M — Google review
My mother and I really wanted to come here for our family vacation and it was okay. Definitely didn't learn anything I didn't already know about the ship however there were a few interactive games you could participate in if you like to. When we order tickets, you had to select a time slot (which is thought maybe that would mean not many people), however we could barely move along the ship and had a awful time seeing everything we wanted to see. Beside thats no complaints
Savanna B — Google review
Such an amazing museum! This and another in TN, if I remember correctly, are privately owned. So informative with artifacts about the ship, it's crew, and the people. A great stop if you are wanting to do something in the area. Self guided or you can download an audio tour. The hosts know thier history and the many people that traveled on the ship. How long g can you keep your hand in 28 degree water? You can try it. The ice cream shop is wonderful.
Daniel — Google review
OMG!!! This was a great experience!!! Sooo informative. You even get to touch the 28° water to feel how cold it was. As you enter you get a "Boarding Pass" which contains info of one of the passengers. At the end of the tour you will see the names of the passengers etched on a blue wall and there you can see whether you survived or not.
Rosalind D — Google review
Awesome place to visit if you love the movie and are interested in artifacts and just everything about the Titanic in general. It was over an hour walk through.. very cool!! The outside of the building is amazing in itself and there's lots of things to take pictures of right in the area...
Country G — Google review
My husband and I were gifted tickets to the Titanic Museum. While we did know the facts shared. What was really amazing was the artifacts and attention to detail they put into the attraction. Especially the building of the Titanic. The diorama of the ships class sections were crazy detailed, even down to the mail in the slots. Our boarding passes were of 3rd and 1st class passengers who unfortunately perished in the sinking.

It was slightly crowded, but we managed the crowd fine. We're from the busy city. Wife loved every section of the self guided tour. She loved everything in the retail shop that we could afford too.

Specialty Museums
Located in Pigeon Forge, the Hollywood Wax Museum is a must-visit attraction for movie enthusiasts. The museum showcases incredibly lifelike wax figures of iconic celebrities from classic film stars to today's A-listers. Visitors can walk the red carpet and pose with their favorite stars, creating memorable photo opportunities. The museum also features cool props to enhance the experience.
Super fun place kids had a blast taking pictures and so did I they have props for most models some will work with other models also. Follow the road in the walkway it will take you though the whole venue.
Vietlao — Google review
Very fun. We visited on a Friday evening. It was not all that busy and no wait to get in. They take your picture upon entering, with the purchase to buy. Some of the wax figures are so life-like and look just like the celebrity while others, not so much. I love that they have props and you can interact with the wax figures. Great price too! About $35 for a very entertaining experience.
Pamela B — Google review
The museum was a cool experience and we had fun taking pictures with the figures. However, we came with a 1.5 year old, so we didn’t buy the add-ons. That said, we paid $74 for two adults for just the wax museum alone. It’s only $5 each more to add on some other attractions, which might make it more worth it. It took us about 30 minutes to get through the museum, so it felt too expensive overall but we still had fun.
Taylor C — Google review
Very cool experience. Some of the wax figures were very lifelike, and others not so much. It was a nice surprise that you could walk up to the figures and they were not roped off - the props were a cool touch as well. We only got the single ticket, not the all access pass as we were not interested in the rest of the activities on the pass. I gave it 3 stars because it really is too expensive for what you get. Almost $80 for two people. Just not enough bang for the buck. If you're really watching your money you may want to sit this one out.
Julie D — Google review
We really enjoyed the exhibit was comfortable inside and the characters seemed almost life like for some, while others didn't quite look anatomically correct others seemed spot on. Well worth the price of admission to take the tour. Was crowded at points because it seemed everyone wanted pictures with certain statues but that's to be expected.
David A — Google review
While visiting Smoky Mountains National Park and staying in Pigeon Forge, we had a little time in our hands so we decided to do something very touristy. Of all the many attractions available we chose to go to the Hollywood Wax Museum. The wax replicates are mostly those of Hollywood stars that most people would be familiar with. Some elicited comments such as, “that looks just like him“ or “that looks just like her”. And in the resemblance was so uncanny you expected them to remove at any moment. I which would have caused my wife to wet her pants). In others they look very familiar, but not quite what you remember. I think in some cases the actor is shown at a different age than one with which you are familiar with. Experience was fun, but I’m not sure it was worth the over $80 for two people charged for admission.
Rick G — Google review
Purchased the All Access Pass which was not ALL access. Yes you get into the 4 attractions but you have to select one of two OPTIONS for the game you play. The word ALL contradicts OPTION so that is a let down. Also it’s a real kick in the gut to learn the tickets are cheaper when you buy them at the desk versus online, everywhere else it’s the opposite. The wax museum was pretty good, most of the people look very close to their wax impression. The other building with the other 3 attractions is poorly managed and where you learn all access isn’t that as you choose between which game you’d like. This is a money grab for your kids to ask you why you can’t play both and they you get to pay more money, it’s false advertising. We waited at least 5 minutes for someone to allow us into both the mirror and haunted walkthrough despite hardly any customers the employees just stand there on their phones and stare at you. The mirror maze, game and haunted walkthrough are all good. Very kid friendly just was mad about false advertising and the cost being cheaper on site. Also there was nobody there during our visit on a Friday afternoon it wouldn’t have hurt anything to allow us to play the other game especially when I’m asking what about the all access pass we purchased.
James M — Google review
We chose to visit on a rainy day to make the most of our trip. It was $40/pp and we had 6 people so for the price (we did the bundle with mirror maze, zombie haunted house and 4d shooting game) it was ok, but we were done with everything in 2hrs or less but there's only so much you can do with the wax figures. Some were spot on, some looked way off. All in all it was a decent visit perfect for a rainy day.

Alcatraz East Crime Museum is a 25,000-square-foot museum located in The Island in Pigeon Forge. It features five galleries that cover the history of American crime, crime scene investigation, the consequences of crime, crime fighting, and pop culture. The museum showcases over 100 interactive exhibits and artifacts related to notorious criminals such as Al Capone and John Dillinger.
Experience! The Alcatraz East Crime Museum was absolutely fascinating! The exhibits are well organized and full of interesting facts about American crime history, from famous cases to forensic science. There’s a great mix of interactive displays, real artifacts, and educational information that keeps you engaged the entire time. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and the atmosphere made learning about history both fun and thought-provoking. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Pigeon Forge — it’s a must-see attraction!

We visited on July 27, 2025. We had a wonderful time. There is not much for kids to do, so I would not plan to take kids. They will probably be bored. There also is not much room for strollers or for kids to run around and play. I would not pay extra for the audio tour. There wasn't really much to it. There are so many people and so much going on, remembering to play audio was another step to remember. There is a lot of reading. If you plan to read and take it all in, I would plan to be there all day. The staff wasn't friendly at all. We encounter one nice employee her name was Stephanie. Stephanie checked us out at the gift shop. You can take pictures as long as you do not use the flash on your camera. You can not record any video, though. Overall it was very interesting, we had a good time, the price for tickets wasn't bad at all, and the gift shop was affordable.

This was my first time to the crime museum after several visits to the area. I arrived at 6pm with a 9pm closing time. Though I only saw about half of all the information there is to offer, I enjoyed everything I saw. Around 815pm I heard a voice saying things along the lines of "You need to hurry up. We dont have all night." I just figured it was a visitor trying to hurry their group along. As I continued through the museum, I heard more comments such as, "The museum closes at 9. We need to move along." I still didn't know who was making the comments. I had seen an employee passing through the spaces after 8pm, but hadn't given any thought to it. At about 8:25 pm I saw the employee speak to another employee, in an obvious manner so we visitors could here, "If people want to stop and look at everything, they need to get here earlier. They need to stop letting people in this late. I want to go home." I wasn't aware how far along in the museum I was, so hurried along through the rest. At 8:30pm the announcement was made that the museum will be closing in 30 minutes, over the loud speaker. That was followed by that recently familiar voice saying, "So move it on." I was out of the museum at 8:40pm, so as it turns out, we were being rushed out with about 30 minutes from the exit anyhow. I really enjoyed the museum and I would visit again, just probably earlier in the day.
Roberg316 — Google review
It was pretty cool here. You definitely learn a lot about everything that happened in the past. Went during the daytime in the week. You were shoulder to shoulder with people. And that wasn't too pleasant. So it made seeing some things and reading some of the captions a little harder.

This is my second time going! I love it!! They have added more stuff since the first time we went, so it’s pretty cool that they add stuff and it’s not always the same when you go! Both times I had specifically went for Theodore Bundys stuff! Staff there are so sweet and nice! I had asked the manager a question about the bug and his response was not what I wanted buuut he was very nice about!! Just wish it was a little cheaper! That’s the only complain! But overall would go again and again!
Emily S — Google review
This is an incredible museum! I highly recommend this museum. This was my second time in 10 years and it was amazing to see the updated information on cases. They are very updated on current crimes/cases. If you are interested in crimes of the medieval days the whole way up to modern day I recommend this place 100%. They have multiple interactive exhibits as well! Keeps the fun going for everyone!

My boyfriend and I have went to Pigeon Forge for our first vacation, we needed something to do on a Saturday night so I bought us tickets to the Country Tonite show. Unfortunately, it was the worst $100 that I've spent since we've been here. It was such a corny show, the singing and dancing wasn't that great at all. I understand it takes a lot to get in front of an audience every night, I'm not taking that away from them but we left at intermission because we were just so disappointed. If I could get a refund, I would because this was NOT what I was expecting especially for a country show. I gave one star only because again I know it's not an easy thing to do but I definitely do not recommend this show at ALL.

Situated on the Parkway in Pigeon Forge, the Comedy Barn Theater has been entertaining families for over 25 years with its clean and family-friendly comedy. This renowned theater boasts a diverse lineup of entertainment, featuring ventriloquists, jugglers, magicians, singers, trained animals, and top comedians from around the country. With over seven million visitors and nightly standing ovations, this show promises large doses of humor and non-stop laughter.
This is a great source of entertainment for all ages. My favorites were the dogs, ventriloquist, and pingpong ball guy (who was hilarious). They get people from the crowd involved and make you feel like a part of the show. All of the staff were extremely nice and welcoming. I highly recommend going to the Comedy Barn if you are in the area!

This is NOT something that we would normally go out and see. However, someone mentioned they saw it last night and it was great so we read the reviews and decided to give it a try.

2nd experience and didn't disappoint! Would highly recommend to anyone with or without children. Nice clean fun!! P.s. If the absolutely hilarious ping pong guy tells you not to shake the shield/glass because he will he you in the forehead with the ping pong ball then don't do it because he will. And if you choose to do so and he chooses to do so, dont get butt hurt and leave. Really hope that man doesn't get in trouble because he just meant for it to be funny. And he gave 3 warnings. Lmbo.

If I could give this place a million stars I would. My husband saw the sign for the comedy barn and said we should check it out. I wasn't sure if it would be appropriate for our kids (5yrs and 4months) but the reviews looked okay. When I say wrong had the time of our life im not joking (pun intended 🙃). Everyone was so welcoming, funny, and wholesome. We sat in the front row (blessed to get tickets from a lady with extra) and my husband even got called up on stage. This was a fun place for the whole family but even more than that....its a hidden gem!! Hidden gem for pure and wholesome values. These people strive for clean family fun and man do they deliver. My husband is already wanting to go check out another skit tomorrow 😆 🤣 because he was in absolute tears of laughter the whole night. Even right now...he is replaying all the videos of the night. The place was so clean, despite being crowed. Its rare to see a place and employees have actual pride in their place anymore but they truely do!! Loved the salute to service members at the end!! They really do a great job of honoring their promise to provide clean family fun when they bought this place from the prior family who filmed hehaw. One last rave about this place. I had to feed my baby during the show and they told me to sit anyway I needed to, to feel comfortable (balcony or offered me a room with a door) for any other moms our there, this is so far from "mummy can't you feed your baby in a bathroom". We will be telling everyone about this place!!!!!!

We had a really good time at the Comedy Barn. The show was funny, clean, and kept everyone laughing from start to finish. The performers were great and you could tell they enjoyed what they were doing. The only downside was intermission. The lobby was packed with people getting food and tshirts while others were trying to get to the bathrooms, it was quite chaotic. Still, it was a fun night for the two of us and definitely worth going if you’re looking for something light and easy to enjoy.

I went to the Comedy Barn in Pigeon Forge recently, and it was such an incredible show! Everyone was so talented and funny, but I have to say Mr. Rob and his pups, Stanley and Louie, completely stole my heart. Their act was not only hilarious but also so impressive. You can really see the bond they share and how much work and love goes into what they do. Mr. Rob is an amazing trainer and comedian, and those pups were just pure joy to watch. I couldn’t stop smiling the whole time! Definitely bringing my dog lover family next time!

They roll you down the mountain- side in a Gulley like trench. You reach speeds of 25 mph before you get to the bottom. The ball is made in new Zealand and cost around 14k per ball. The cost of the activity is around $30 per roll down the hill. The wife said it was a blast, and she felt like she was floating. It's supposed to be the only place in the USA that you can do this right now. The activity takes place rain or shine, and you have to sign a wavier to participate.

Such a cool experience! Recommend buy more than one roll as there are 3 different lanes. My boys had a blast! It’s great even on a hot day since they use cold water and refill each roll! Definitely recommend.

The Outdoor Gravity Park was SO.MUCH.FUN! The staff were so friendly and really made my fiancé and I’s celebratory engagement trip one to remember! We did the red and orange course, and it was definitely one of those core memory moments. This place was already a 10/10, but the kind staff makes it even better! Can’t wait to come back again!

Incredibly fun activity to get family members wet and do something outside the norm. The staff was friendly and gave input, because you can either go down in a ball solo or with others. The red path was most popular in our family group, but those that took the orange path rated it the best! We got there early and ordered a head of time, so the lines were small, but the lines were large by the time we left. I recommend it for at least one visit.

This place is Amazing!!! They have truly made this experience so much fun!! Take ky advice do 3 rolls one on each of the tracks. You will laugh and laugh! Also its wayyyyyy more to ride with someone instead of yourself but on the orange track you have to for safety. But the purple and red tracks ride with someone you won't regret it.

Love this place!! Have been a couple times and it's always a blast! Being transported to the top of the hill, waiting your turn under the shade of a canopy structure and having good natured comradery with others as you dive into the "portal" opening which is always comical at any age, size or ability! The employees are great at assisting and assuring each guest that it will be fun and to relax! It's splashy inside and very slippery. I always get a video bc the ride goes so fast. It's a riot to play it back over and over, watching everyone's reaction! Next time, I'm wearing goggles so I can see the whole thing without wiping my eyes most of the time! It's very fun with other riders inside but you can ride solo too!

worth every penny. it was our first trip here with the family and it was a cozy ride down the side of the mountain. the water was warm, like they funnel it straight from a hottub or something. we paid for the video so we could explain to friends and just look at us laughing as we splashed down the mountain.

Rides & Activities
Nestled in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park area, the Smoky Mountain Alpine Coaster is a must-visit attraction. This unique mile-long roller coaster offers an exhilarating experience as riders have control over their speed and braking. The coaster descends 363 feet over a mile, reaching speeds of up to 27 miles per hour. What sets it apart is that each car has its own brakes, allowing riders to customize their ride experience.
This alpine coaster delivers a genuinely fun and scenic experience. The ride begins with a slow, steady pull uphill that lasts a few minutes, giving you time to take in the mountain surroundings. Once you reach the top, you begin a downhill descent that lasts about three minutes, weaving through a series of sharp turns and curves. You control your own speed using manual brakes, though it’s worth noting that you can only slow down—you can’t go faster than the set pace. This makes it a great option for both thrill-seekers and more cautious riders, as you can adjust based on your comfort level. The track is smooth, well-maintained, and winds through wooded hills, adding to the excitement and immersion. One important tip: arrive right at opening time, around 10 AM. Crowds build quickly, and by mid-morning the wait can become quite long. Early arrival means not only shorter lines but also cooler temperatures before the sun gets too intense. Overall, it’s a well-run attraction with a great mix of adrenaline and control. Highly recommended for families and anyone looking for a unique mountain ride.

If you are visiting Pigeon Forge, you absolutely must make a stop at the Smoky Mountain Alpine Coaster. This was an awesome time and easily one of the highlights of our trip! Unlike traditional roller coasters, you control your own speed, which is a blast. You get to zip down the mountain through the trees, making the experience feel adventurous and unique. Even if you brake a little, the scenery is beautiful. The real test of a great family attraction is if the kids want to do it again—and mine were begging for more! They wanted to ride multiple times right away. It's safe, exhilarating, and provides such a rush that one trip is just not enough. The staff was friendly, the equipment felt secure, and the whole operation was very professional. Skip the lines at other places and head straight for this mountain adventure. We can't wait to go back!

Good ride! Circular section of track allows huge speed. Jamaican staff/crew were pleasant but I wondered why local workers were not staffing the ride. “No phones, loose clothing, or hats”rule seemed excessive as Lost Mine ride does not say this and their coaster ride is similar.

We were so nervous at first, but this turned out to be such a blast! While we knew the weight wasn’t an issue, we’re still considered “thick” and lord… at one point I was going so fast I thought for sure I was about to jump the tracks…lol. It was such a rush and so much fun that we went back again to experience the track at dusk — and it was even better! The staff was friendly, the ride was smooth, and being able to control your own speed made it perfect for both thrill seekers and those who just want to enjoy the views. Highly recommend if you’re in the area.

We went early in the morning so there was no wait. It was fun and fast. It was a good long ride for your money. We bought a Groupon deal that helped with pricing. They do have a military discount at the register. You're not supposed to take pictures or a camera. As you may lose your phone. I had mine strapped around my neck. And got a nice memory of our ride the kids like to look back on.

Water & Amusement Parks
Dollywood's Splash Country is a 35-acre water park inspired by Dolly Parton, offering a variety of water slides. Located near the Great Smoky Mountains, it's conveniently close to several attractions and annual events. The park provides free admission for kids under 3 and features kid-friendly areas like Little Creek Falls with shallow pools and fun slides, as well as The Cascades where children can explore hidden misters, bubblers, and slides in secret coves around the pool perimeter.
Okay, I'm gonna say it. This place rocks. Better than Dollywood, if you like to get wet. Do on a weekday in August. We had no wait to get in ans did every ride, twice, before there were any lines. All the food was great and actually priced reasonably. A personal pizza for $10 is a good deal. We brought our reusable water bottles and there were plenty of fill stations. If you wear glasses, make sure to bring a device that will secure your glasses to your head, or you'll have to take them off. You can't wear water shoes on most rides, so flip flops would have been a better choice for easy on and off. Will definitely make a trip down for this again!

Great time at Dollywood’s Splash Country! While it’s not as massive as some of the big-name parks in Florida, it offers plenty of fun and a great rides to keep everyone entertained. The wave pool is a blast, and the lazy river was one of our favorites, relaxing and beautifully maintained. One of the things that really sets this park apart is the setting. Surrounded by trees and mountain landscape, it has a charming country forest vibe that makes it feel special and less commercialized. The atmosphere is calm and family-friendly. The service throughout the park was excellent. Staff were friendly and helpful, and we really appreciated the free cups of water available all day, such a thoughtful touch, especially in the summer heat. Food options were ok, but definitely better priced than what you’d find in larger parks. We had a cabana by the lazy river and it was great! Shaded and with a TV and comfortable chairs and sofas, you can order food and drinks and have it delivered to you, they made a mistake in our food order and solved it right away, they were great! Excellent costumer service. There’s also a souvenir shop with all the basics you might need for a water park day, plus cute swimwear and gifts to take home. All in all, Dollywood’s Splash Country is a great option for families looking for a fun day in the water without the overwhelm of massive crowds or long lines. Highly recommend if you’re in the Pigeon Forge area!

We visited on a weekday and were surprised by the heavy crowd — most rides had long wait times throughout the day. There was also about a one-hour delay due to lightning within a 10-mile radius, which is understandable for safety but did cut into our time. We entered around 1 PM, but the park is open from 10 AM to 7 PM. If you’re planning a visit, it’s best to arrive right at opening (10 AM) to make the most of your day and beat the lines. The park itself is clean and fun with great water attractions, but definitely plan ahead and expect some delays during peak summer days.

The kids and I had a blast!!! Beautiful and very clean. All rides and activities are super fun. It was very helpful purchasing the fast pass as some rides the line was very long and waiting in the heat with kids was a NO!! One comment is the life guards were very young and some didn’t have a clue what they were doing.
Duewa A — Google review
A little disappointed here. One of the main rides we traveled for was out of service. Which i know you can control. But, the food was so overpriced it forced us to leave by lunch to seek it somewhere else. Each ride had a lifeguard, which was great, however each lifeguard had their own rules on what you can wear, or can wear on the rides. So we were forced to take things off and or put things at our sitting area just to get to the ride and be told we could or couldn't wear another item. Example: water shoes, swim shirts, sun glasses etc... They are not all on the same page as far as the rules go. Plenty of seats available, and water was fine in September. Prepare to bring more money then expected to spend here if you are staying all day. (Example: dip and dots =13$, chicken tenders and fries =14$)

This place was amazing, It was a hot day with lots of people, but this place is designed so well! They made good use of nature to provide shade while you waited in line, or added shade umbrellas to select areas as you go up the steps. The staff was very friendly and I was surprised the food was so good as well. I recommend the souvenir mugs with free refills.

I took my two granddaughters that flew in from California into Kentucky where I live. We planned to spend a couple days in Pigeon Forge and visit Dollywood. Grandchildren had a spectacular time. They were really impressed at how beautiful the park was as they have gone to Disney world and great America. They said Dolly really takes care of her visitors. The way that lines were in the shade, misting water and plenty of fans going. All the workers were really accommodating and nice. I didn't see a full garbage while I was there. The bus service from the parking lot to the two different parks was a nice free service. One more thing, I like that we all had purchased an initial cup for drinking all day and we didn't have to stand in line to get refills. We had access to get refills ourselves. Excellent excellent Park. We had a blast. Thanks Dolly we love you.

Paula Deen's Lumberjack Feud Supper Show is a family-friendly amusement park featuring thrilling lumberjack competitions and interactive experiences. The show showcases real-life lumberjack athletes competing in classic events such as log rolling, speed climbing, axe throwing, and more. The outdoor venue includes water features and climbing poles while providing covered seating for the audience. In addition to the main show, guests can participate in an interactive lumberjack experience to try their hand at various lumberjack skills.
My husband and I went on a whim and were pleasantly surprised. The show was great,lots of audience participation, and very entertaining. When we take the kids, I would definitely recommend calling ahead and asking for discounts and buying the cream soda then. Saves you $1 per bottle. The food was good and staff was very helpful and friendly. Plus, we bought off Groupon and it did not mention that you need to come early in order to eat the buffet. I do recommend reading their website.

This was our first time here and we have been coming to the area for 10 years. The staff were great, the food was so good. I didn’t have high hopes because of other reviews. The bbq pork was the best I have had, coleslaw was yummy, cake was moist. Lastly, the show was very entertaining! Advice, make sure to get there early. We got there at 6:30 for the 8:00 show and there was a line but we got in pretty quickly. This is a definite must do when you are here!

My husband and I had dinner one night here while staying in Gatlinburg for our anniversary. The line for the food was very long. I wish they would have had both buffet stations open and it would have helped. The pork and the green beans were very good. The seating area was just crowded picnic tables and then you went to sit on metal bench style seats to watch the show. It wasn't too terribly crowded with people at the 8pm show. They had a bar you could get drinks at during the show. The show started off a little slow and got better as it went. It was decently long and the lumberjacks were entertaining to watch. We are from the Ozarks so it's hard to beat a Branson show but it came close. It was okay. It would have been a little better if the buffet wasn't so small and crowded and the eating area didn't feel cramped. My husband and I both wished it was set up to eat while you enjoyed the show.

The food was just okay. Nothing special, at all. The coleslaw was weird with the pickles. The corn was bland. But the show… let me just tell you my husband and I had the best time! We laughed, cheered and booed like you wouldn’t believe! So so so much fun! We’ve already recommended this show to family that lives in the area. But, we did warn them that the food is not great and they should eat elsewhere before going.

The show was worth it! The show was a lot of fun. It was interactive and it’s pretty amazing to watch some of the stuff they can do. Make sure you make a lot of noise cheering them on. My husband got to be a part of the ax throwing for team McGraw! A little feedback for the food, the website should be updated. It states, baked beans and coleslaw but it was sauerkraut and green beans. Mac n cheese tasted too much like flour. Biscuits, pork and potato salad were good.
Melissa S — Google review
100% worth seeing!!. The show was amazing, everyone was on their feet by the end cheering the two teams on. I will say go for the show not for the meal. The meal is just a added bonus, but where the experience shines is the enthusiasm of the actors and the true skill of the Professional athletes. They don’t mention in the advertising, but these are all people with accolades from various competitions. It was engaging and I highly recommend it, just don’t expect much out of the meal, but at this price it’s more than worth it! - pro tips: use groupon, be mindful the while thing is outdoors, and hold onto your pop cup when you go to see the show, you will need it if you want free refills.
David S — Google review
The food was a buffet outside, it was bbq, baked beans, corn, mac and cheese, bread, and coleslaw slaw. The BBQ and corn was not the best. The bean and Mac was pretty good. However, the show was spectacular. We loved it!. They also carve these beautiful bears ypu can buy and they sign. Thanks again 🌞!!!!! P.S. if you like mini golf, get the park hopper and add the lumberjack show. You will pay half price.

So me and my Boo went here because, well he's a foodie in the best kind of way. If he's ever eaten at any restaurant and he liked that meal he's saving to his phone. This is not , repeat NOT a place that he'll be saving. It's billed as an all you can eat buffet with Paula Dean's name on it. So you're probably thinking, there's going to be fried and baked chicken, Paula's delicious mac n cheese, cabbage, squash casserole, collards, fried fish and ummmm her banana pudding. Well, close your mouth, you ain't getting none of that. If that's what you expect on a buffet please go to GC down the road because you are NOT getting any of that here. They do give you an hour to eat as much of the 5 or 6 items on the "buffet" and there is a Lumber Jack show. I can't wait to tell you about that. At $55 pp I expected better. Do better ya'll!!!

The Hatfield & McCoy Dinner Feud is a unique dinner show that features a comedic musical revue alongside a delicious homestyle feast. The production, created by the same company behind the Comedy Barn, brings to life the legendary feud between the Hatfield and McCoy families through mountain-style competitions, song and dance numbers, feats of strength, stunts, comedy routines, and even platform diving.
Very impressed! I've been to the area and few times and decided to book this as our first dinner show.. it was great! The actors put on a great show 2 times per night, the food was soooo good and its all you can eat. You'll leave extremely full and entertained. The service was wonderful as well. Make sure to arrive early like they say as the food starts before the show.

Funny, funny AND FUNNY… absolutely hilarious lol. First time seeing the show and reminded me of back home and my family roots. The cast was perfect and the service was great. I liked the idea of the show and how interactive the cast was with the crowd. The food was good and the fact that it was all you can eat made sure the kids had plenty to eat. The only issue we had was the how they had everyone line up outdoors and how late they were to allow everyone inside and seat everyone. Other than the planning of allowing customers in and seated everything else went well. When you’re in town I strongly suggest swinging through and catching a show or two, it was hilarious.

We had a great show on 8/7/25. We did purchase the VIP experience since it’s a once in our life show. With the VIP we sat as close as possible to the stage, you could touch it. The food was great our waiter Dan was great, he handled business on drink refills and food refills. The fried chicken and pulled BBQ pork was very good, the mashed potatoes were good, the soup was great, the corn on the cob was overcooked, coleslaw was good and the dessert was delicious. The show was great, awesome singing and theatrical performances. Up front in VIP you will get a little wet be prepared. We enjoyed everything about the show and meal. Easy to park and exit after the show on the Thursday evening 8pm show we went to.

Visiting the Great Smoky Mountains from Florida. We've been planning this trip since the beginning of June and came across The Hatfield & McCoy's dinner show. Thought it would be fun to see. Getting seated went smoothly. Service was PHENOMENAL! There's an abundance of food from soup, huge pieces of fried chicken, pulled pork, coleslaw, and mashed potatoes. The corn was overcooked, but recognize they are cooking for the masses. The oreo pudding was good and not icky sweet. The show was fun! We particularly appreciated their recognition of veterans, police, firefighters, and medical people. We had an unexpected funny moment when the sound effect for a gun shot was very delayed. They made light of it straight away, which added to the enjoyment of the show.

Nestled in a complex with country cooking eateries, pottery, candy, and toy shops, The Old Mill Restaurant is a haven for soul-satisfying Southern comfort food. It's renowned as one of the most popular restaurants in the Great Smokies region. Despite potential wait times, visitors are assured that their breakfast will be worth it. The restaurant is known for serving insanely large portions and is recommended for those with hearty appetites.
We had to wait for about 30 min but it’s well worth the wait. Very nice size portions almost everyone took food home in the place. They don’t have liquor or beer license so pregame lol. Reasonable prices great food. A few floors of tables and tons of people working so service is fast. Gotta have the bread ball’s they serve as breads for the table.

The old Mill is one of the restaurants that lived up to all of the hype! It was so delicious we went twice, and you WILL NOT leave hungry! The corn fritters and chowder were AMAZING, the chicken and dumplings were super good, the pot roast was tasty, and the desserts were to die for. Plus service was great and they were easy going, I don't like salad so I was able to get a cup of fruit instead (wasn't exactly listed as a side but they accommodated. Whether your here early or late your going to wait, but it was nice that they quoted an hr and both times we only waited like 40 mins at most.

We went around 1:30 pm for lunch and had no wait! From all the reviews and word of mouth, was told food was amazing. The fried chicken was superb, but the green beans and mash potatoes were lacking flavor. Mashed potatoes reminded me of boxed potatoes. The chicken n dumplings were good. I was under whelmed with the corn fritters, I was hoping for more of a hushpuppy and flavor. It's basically fried dough. They serve it with maple butter. I am not a fan. The fritter tasted better dipped in the vegetable and corn chowder soup. The soups were good. The corn chowder was better than I expected and had a lot of flavor. It was a mix between gravy and soup. The portion size was generous and we left with Togo boxes. The lunch entrée didn't include dessert.

Wow, another great meal. We loved our late lunch yesterday at the Old Mill Cafe, so today we did a late lunch at the restaurant. Fantastic. Valeria did a wonderful job and I can't wait to return to the area to eat here again. I had the open faced turkey sandwich with beef gravy and fries. The restaurant portions are more than the cafe's but cost about a dollar more. Well worth it. No wait for seats, either. Military discount is much appreciated, too.

Fantastic and Beautiful Restaurant , highly recommend. This was our first time as we're traveling on vacation. I've been in the area 5 days and wished I'd found it sooner. We had a great table overlooking the water on the second floor. My husband had prime rib cooked perfectly for humans I had turkey and stuffing meal with fried okra , mashed potatoes, greenbeans, corn chowder soup. For desert we had blackberry cobler with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The blackberry cobler was Amazing ,in fact the best I've ever had !! I have to say they have alot of great staff and our waitress Cheslee D was spot on with refills and checking on us, very polite,great at multitasking, she's good for your business. Our meal price included desert, soup and salad and really good portions. 30.99 for 8 oz prime rib, baked potato, green beans ,garden salad and a cup a soup plus desert...Outstanding food 😋 Outstanding service.

My wife and visiting in town decided to try this place, based on good reviews. Well it was actually pretty good. I had the omelette as pictured and the wife had the classic breakfast which is a sample of all the classics. The only thing the small pancakes were served cold. Other than that it was pretty good, in fact the grits were pretty good too, and I do recommend. It's not a place I would go to every day, but I do give it a good review. Prices were pretty reasonable as well. 👍

There was a long wait to dine at this restaurant. We gave our name and waited over 30 minutes for them to call us in the loud speaker. While we waited, we browsed the adjoining gift shop. They have so many fun and unique things for sale. When they finally called our name we went back to the restaurant and we were seated. I ordered liver and onions. My companion ordered fried chicken tenders. Both meals came with seasoned green beans, mashed potatoes, corn chowder. While we wait for our meals, we were brought some sweet fried things. They looked like hush puppies but they were better than that. So good. Our whole meal was delicious and definitely worth the wait.

Great place to get some amazing southern comfort food. A little bit of a wait but they have a general store you can explore while you’re waiting. We had the southern fried chicken legs and pork chops. Fried perfectly and served with their corn fritters, corn chowder, side salads, green beans and mashed potatoes. For dessert we had pecan pie and blackberry cobbler.

Pigeon Forge Snow is a year-round indoor snow park offering an exciting snow tubing experience for the whole family. With fresh snow made daily, visitors can enjoy tubing down multiple slopes as many times as they want with hourly passes. The climate-controlled environment ensures a comfortable temperature of 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit, allowing for endless fun in the snow play area where one can build snowmen and forts.
This is a must do attraction! Skip the real snow tubing and go here. It's climate controlled, unlimited tubing during your time and you can go more times than you can stand. They have multiple lanes, different size tubes, and a a moving lift to take you back to the top of the hill. We have been multiple times and it is own of the highlights of any trip.

Pigeon Forge Snow is a simple, no-frills indoor snow park centered around tubing. There are seven parallel tubing lanes—nothing fancy, just straight slides with a steady flow of people having fun. In addition, there’s a snow play area with real snow. Technically, it requires a separate $9.99 pass for 30 minutes, but in practice, people often walk in freely without checks. Tubing costs around $29.99 for a one-hour pass, but most visitors find that 20–30 minutes is plenty of time to enjoy the experience. The environment is cool and fun for kids, especially those who’ve never seen snow. It’s a good way to spend a short, active break indoors without planning an entire day. Simple fun in a climate-controlled space—expect a quick, energetic outing rather than an all-day attraction.

WHAT A BLAST! We were a group of six on a slow day. We went on a Wednesday during school hours. We had a 3 yr old, 7 yr old, and a 15 yr. Plus, 2 Moms and a Mimi. The 7 year old was too big for the small tube and almost too little for the big. The young man working the top where you go down came over every time he got off the conveyor and carried his tube for him! All the employees were super nice. He went above and beyond. Our 7 year old said he wished he could live there! I'm the Mimi, I made it down about 5 times and that was enough for me! It was a lot of fun. We didn't do snow play.

My group absolutely loved the snow tubing at Pigeon Forge Snow. It was the highlight of our trip!! You get one hour to snow tube and they utilized the entire hour!! I love that they take your picture coming down the slope and you can purchase it. We bought tickets for the snow tubing and the snow play. The snowplay was not good!! The "snow" was hard and there wasn't much else to do with it. Also, they left a rake in the "snow". I was very disappointed with the girl at the front counter. She was not very helpful at all. One of the guys finally saw us (it was 15 of us) and came to help.

Unique place. My kids 12 and 10 had a blast. A tad expensive but they do offer a military discount. The great thing is they have a conveyor belt so they can take the tube up with no walking.

Boatloads of fun for kids and adults!!! All thanks to great team members like Emily and Braden. They love kids and families and instill a very friendly Tennessee spirit. Highly recommended!!!

Had fun here. I will say that the best thing to do is probably just a one hour pass for the tubing. The snow play area looked like a joke and might be fun for very small children. After going down a few times I had my fill. Kids enjoyed it but anything more than an hour would be too much. It’s clean and nice and they have a nice conveyor that takes you to the top. That said, I was expecting more “snow”.

We loved pigeon forge snow!! Be careful to hurt yourself, follow all the rules, and lift your butt at the bottom of the hill! I'd 100% go again. Although we felt the snow play was too icey rather than snow.

Nestled in the heart of Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, Dollywood is a vibrant theme park that captures the essence of Appalachian culture through its thrilling rides, charming shops, and lively musical performances. Originally named Silver Dollar City, this beloved destination was transformed by the legendary Dolly Parton in 1986 as part of her mission to uplift her hometown's economy.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Absolute Blast at Dollywood! I had such an amazing time at Dollywood! From the moment I walked through the gates, the whole place was bursting with charm, Southern hospitality, and good old-fashioned fun. The staff were incredibly friendly—everyone smiled, cracked jokes, and genuinely seemed happy to be there, which made the whole experience even better. The rides? Absolutely awesome! The coasters gave the perfect mix of thrill and excitement without feeling overwhelming (Lightning Rod was my personal favorite 😍). Between rides, I loved exploring all the themed areas—everything felt so clean, well-kept, and beautifully decorated. And don’t even get me started on the food! The cinnamon bread is legendary for a reason—warm, gooey, and impossible to eat just one piece. I also tried some delicious barbecue and homemade fudge that I’m still dreaming about. The live shows were such a pleasant surprise, too—tons of talent and heart. It really felt like more than just an amusement park; it’s a full experience filled with music, laughter, and that cozy mountain magic you can only find in Tennessee. If you’re looking for a fun, family-friendly, and unforgettable getaway, Dollywood is 100% worth it. I left with a full belly, sore cheeks from smiling so much, and a phone full of happy memories. Can’t wait to go back! 🎢🎶🌄

This was our second time visiting Dollywood — last year we came during Christmas time, and now it’s officially becoming a family tradition for us! 🎡✨ We visited in October this time, and it was just as magical. We chose the Preferred Parking ($55) again, and it’s absolutely worth it — especially with a toddler and stroller. It’s super convenient being so close to the entrance, and even if you choose regular parking, they have trams that pick you up and drop you off right at the gate. At the entrance, the staff measures the kids and gives them color-coded wristbands, so you immediately know which rides are safe and suitable for their height — such a smart and thoughtful idea! There are tons of rides for younger kids, and plenty for adults too, so everyone has fun. The train ride is always a favorite — it runs every hour and takes about 16 minutes through the beautiful Smoky Mountain scenery. 🚂 The park is spotless, the staff is kind and helpful, and the food is delicious (definitely don’t skip the cinnamon bread!). Everything feels warm, friendly, and family-oriented — exactly the kind of place you want to come back to year after year. We’re already looking forward to coming back for the Christmas lights again — Dollywood has definitely become one of our favorite family traditions! ❤️🎠

Very busy, but a great park to visit. I suggest parking somewhere and riding the trolley into the park. They come in the back, so it takes 10 minutes, drops you off and picks you up for 3.00. I believe age 2 and under can ride free on the Trolley. It sure made it easier for us with 3 grandbabies. You have to try the cinnamon bread! Its delicious.

I have been to many amusement parks and Dollywood has was by far the best experience. Granted- the weekend I went was a school holiday and it was incredibly crowded but I still had an amazing experience. All of the merchandise was reasonably priced. The food was amazing - people do not lie about the cinnamon bread. Definitely wait in line for that no matter how long the wait is. If you can, I would recommend purchasing the fast passes. It’s an investment, but I think it would be worth it. You have to purchase fast passes at least a day prior to your visit because they will get sold out the day of. I highly recommend also visiting all of Dolly Parton‘s museums. Her life story is unique and inspiring, and she does so much for her community. I will love to come back soon.

If you are into roller coasters this is the place for you. From small to large the roller coasters are thrilling. I like a more laid back atmosphere. I find that at the state fair area and some of the more "tame" rides. The stores and music are fun as well. Well run and friendly staff. Even on our busy Saturday I found we didn't wait more than 35 minutes for a ride except for the train. Good experience! Loved that every vendor had free water for guests.

What a great amusement park! Actually family friendly, wholesome, friendly, and they aren’t trying to rip you off every 5 minutes! So much better than the other parks our family has visited, including Universal and Disney in my opinion. The music, the steam train, the coasters, the food, the shows, this place just has it all. We had our 8 year old, as well as two teenage kids, my wife and my mother who is in her early 70’s. Everyone had a great day, we split up as the teenagers wanted rides, rides, rides, and others wanted shows and other things. It all worked out great and I’d love to come back another time. Nearby Gatlinburg is also really great, and the Smoky Mountain National Park is just awesome. Cool place to visit for sure!

Visiting Dollywood was truly a dream come true for me! I had been wanting to experience this park for such a long time, and finally being there gave me such a great feeling. The rides were so much fun — from thrilling roller coasters to relaxing attractions, there was something for everyone. Since it was a long weekend Monday, the park was very crowded, and most of the rides had over an hour of wait time. That part was a little disappointing because it limited how much we could cover in a day. Still, the Fall Harvest Festival made up for it with its beautiful atmosphere, delicious food options, and amazing pumpkin decorations all around the park — everything looked magical, especially in the evening when the lights came on. Despite the long lines, it was such a memorable visit. The park has a special charm that makes you want to come back again. I’m so glad I finally made it to Dollywood — can’t wait to return another time when it’s a bit less crowded! 🎢🎃🍁

This is the best resort/ theme park experience I’ve had. I stayed at the Disney world resort for two weeks last year and this is by far so much better. The resorts are amazing and everything is very close by. Buses are consistent and quick. The park is absolutely stunning, up in the Smokey mountains. Some of the rides give you an amazing view of the natural beauty of the area. All of the rides are surprisingly awesome. The best part was the people, everyone was very friendly. The place has an almost magical atmosphere. Highly recommend coming here if you’re looking for a good family vacation spot!

If you're looking for an exhilarating evening filled with adventure and delicious food, look no further than Pirates Voyage Dinner & Show in Pigeon Forge, TN. This high-energy dinner theater takes place in a charming rustic barn featuring stadium seating that enhances the experience. Join the legendary pirate Blackbeard and his trusty quartermaster Calico Jack as they lead their crews—the Crimson and Sapphire—in an epic battle across land, sea, and sky.
If you haven’t yet- JUST GO!! We had a great time! We always go to The Stampede but switched it up this time. The atmosphere was amazing, the staff were very friendly & helpful. Wheelchair accessible and it was nice that my mom was able to sit so close in her chair. They also had an extension to the table so she as able to eat from her wheelchair. The food was pleasantly delicious. She didn’t like the mac & cheese but it reminded me of warmed up Bob Evan’s you buy from the grocery store. The show blew us away. All the actors & actresses were amazing! The talent was outstanding and their energy. You could tell they enjoy and love what they do! The special effects were a surprise and outstanding! Bonus- the live animals! We are glad we went! You should too!

4.6 is the current rating at the time of this review. Upon arrival, everyone is gathered into a large area until the show starts. There are restrooms and bar and many places to sit, but not enough seating in the wait area for everyone. And the restroom lines can get long. The show was okay. I didn’t know what the storyline was until a specific part happened. There’s a lot of activity and theatrical music throughout the dinner and show. Drink orders are taken first, then a choice between 2 different desserts. The food is really good. The action/dancing/diving/etc outweighed any storyline. So for this reason I have 3/5 stars. The good food gives this rating an extra bump from a 2 star to a 3 star. I would not return to watch this again. I’ve been to other dinners and shows that I would see again, but unfortunately this isn’t one of them.

The food was good. Only a fork for chicken,Ham, corn,soup and biscuit. Service was good. Food came out efficiently and was clean up effectively. Atmosphere was nice. Performance was good but not amazing. This is more of a kid collabor show. The seals,birds and the dogs stole the show. The VIP I feel wasn't worth the extra money.
Carl L — Google review
We decided to go based on a TV commercial and really enjoyed it. We had reserved seats but not VIP. We were B6, which were great seats at the right level, and you could see everything. Remember that you are assigned a row, not a seat. Huge, hearty meal that offers takeout boxes of you can't finish. The show started at 6pm and ended at 730pm. It was constant action the entire time, while your server is serving and keeping things up. We had to remind ourselves to eat at times because you get caught up in the show. The performers were outstanding with great diving, gymnastics, and skills that are choreographed with music. There are even animals with seals and dogs adding to the action. Great evening. I would highly recommend it.

We have been to this Pirates Dinner Show for the past couple of years on our trip to Gatlinburg. 100% recommend 👌 Kids will love it! We used to always go to Dixie Stampede (which is also a must see) but wanting something different.. and this has been another great option!!! Food, performance and the whole show is amazing & Kid-friendly. I loved that they offered a different option for dessert!! That chocolate coconut cake is the bomb!!!! BUY YOUR TICKETS!!! YOU WILL ENJOY IT 💯💯💯

What an incredible experience! From the moment we arrived, the excitement was palpable. The face painting before the show was a huge hit with my kids, my daughter transformed into a beautiful mermaid, and my son proudly wore his pirate look. They loved every minute of it! The show itself was action-packed and full of amazing stunts, acrobatics, and thrilling pirate battles that kept us all on the edge of our seats. The sets and special effects were impressive, creating a truly immersive pirate adventure. The performers were talented and energetic, and the story was fun and engaging for both kids and adults. The food was delicious and hearty, perfectly timed with the performance so we never missed a moment. Overall, it was a fantastic family friendly outing full of excitement, laughter, and unforgettable memories. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the area!

Food served was creamy veg soup, a biscuit, chicken breast, ham piece, mac n cheese, corn on cob, with choice of dessert - choc coconut pie [not good] or apple turnover [ good and flaky]. Good show - acrobatics, humor, engaging. Ricky, our server was great. If no cash to tip they give you a card with the server's cash app and venmo. Liked it better than dixie stampede . Its worth the money to do it once.

Honestly, the best part of our trip with kids. The performance, music, food on point and came put on que from when the performers said to enjoy your feast. They didn’t miss a beat. My kids were picked to be part of the show which made our experience even better. When you first enter there is face painting and a bar. Face painting was around 25/kid and they get a sword, flag for your team, eye patch and hat- worth it!! The bar puts your drinks in cups that are souvenirs. Candace was our waitress And she was amazing. This is so worth the cost! My kids woke up talking about it. It’s the highlight of their trip.

MagiQuest is a popular winter attraction in Pigeon Forge, featuring a massive medieval castle with four indoor activities. Visitors can embark on a fantasy role-playing adventure using virtual magic wands to solve puzzles and battle dragons. Additionally, they can explore the world's largest mirror maze, take on a Mission Impossible-style laser challenge, and enjoy blacklight mini golf. Kids can engage in live action role play (LARP-ing) to defend their fellowship against evil within the castle.
Truly the last place of its kind, captures a special kind of early 2000s nostalgia reminiscent of campy fantasy stories and VHS choose your own adventures. The core gameplay revolves around puzzles and treasure hunts but there are a few fun bosses. The technology is a little dated and so sometimes doesn't work as well as you would like, but since this is the last place you could even try to do something like this, I think it's well worth the visit if you're a nerd for fantasy.

It was a fun time. I had been in a similar place like this in the Dells where the rooms were more in theme and less like a room that was decorated. But the family had a good time. The mini good was great... except the 18th hole was a bit of a let down. All in all I would visit again.

We took a party of 10 people. Was less than 250 bucks. And we spent at least 3 hours or more doing the activities. The staff was amazing. Very accommodating. Very understanding. And even gave my sweet boy with down syndrome a free popcorn. Its fun for all ages. Kids ranged from 6 to 16 and they all had a blast.

This place is kinda cool until you do the wizard stuff. So they put you through a training and your like this is gonna be easy. NO ITS NOT. It makes no sense at all and there nothing much to it except taking a bunch of your money. The arcade is fun. The mini golf is fun. But I hate the wizard quest. Also that place gets crowded easily, even on a weekday.

My family stopped in here for a lovely afternoon of the arcade and indoor putt putt. The prices are affordable and the fun is worth the price! The indoor miniature ⛳ golf has black lights, is nice and cool, and pretty challenging holes.

This. Is. GREAT!! An excellent family experience. We spent 5 hours and still wanted to do more! The MagicQuest is a well-planned eye-spy style interactive adventure that is rewarding in an hour, but intriguing for many more. The blacklight pirate golf is professionally designed and expertly lit. The arcade games are fun and CLEAN. And the MIRROR maze is surprisingly long, fun, and "trippy". Staff was friendly and smiling and engaged with us on several encounters. My children ages 3 to 17 loved it. Highly recommend for families.

The Great Smoky Mountain Wheel is a breathtaking 200-foot-tall Ferris wheel that stands as the highlight of The Island in Pigeon Forge. This remarkable attraction features all-glass gondolas, allowing visitors to enjoy unobstructed views of the stunning Smoky Mountains and picturesque waters below. Perfect for families and friends, each gondola accommodates up to eight guests, making it an ideal spot for creating unforgettable memories together.
The view from The Wheel was awesome, I experienced it at night with all the lights! Very comfortable ride even if you're a bit scared of heights. After fully loading everyone you get 3 full rounds and I believe the cost of The Wheel was $16.99 outside of the unlimited ride band for $40.00. We got to ride for 2 days with the same bands.

The lady proceeded to tell me ma'am we only accept cards 😡, I said well I don't have cards only cash! Everywhere else down here accepts cash and or card for there pics!

Beyond the Lens! Family Fun is a 20,000 square foot museum in Pigeon Forge that offers an array of interactive exhibits for all ages. Visitors can enjoy over 150 interactive displays, including virtual reality rides, escape rooms, and a pop culture walk-through. One highlight is the FlyRide experience, an immersive theater ride with motion seats that takes you on a journey across the United States.
This place was actually better than I expected. I thought it would be all about cameras and lenses but I couldn't have been more wrong. I love sports and video games so this was the place for me. I grew up playing Mario on Nintendo. I really enjoyed playing the different game systems I grew up on. They had a baseball interactive game, basketball shoot out, skeeball and more. The displays were very informative and interactive. They have displays for all ages. My personal favorite was the Virtual Reality (VR) rides. The finger coaster was awesome. You draw out your roller coaster, then ride it. The only negative I have is the Flyride was down for maintenance during our visit. Other than that, our overall experience was great.
Shay F — Google review
So we went there because we wanted to ride the FlyRider, when we got in it was pretty fast and not a lot of people were riding at around 5:30pm. With that said we all went and did the Flyrider before it had ended the machine decided to do a software update or so the guy told us and took us off the ride. I was a bit upset because we didn’t get to finish the ride at all but Ms. Shannon understood and gave us and some other family a complementary pass for the next day to see it. We went early the next day she remembered us and gave us an entry to the other area while we waited. She is a true example of great customer service. Thank you Shannon for your understanding and for letting us have fun as well. We highly recommend the place it is super cool and it will be especially fun for kids. Recommend doing this place!

Such a fun interactive place! And they’re so understanding with small business owners. Our family came here excited to do the fly ride and look at all of the exhibits. We were only able to do the fly ride the one day because since we do own our own business, we kept getting calls lol. Obviously we can’t ignore the calls, but we were scared Our tickets were going to “expire”. Luckily , ASH was there to step in and save the day!! we explained to her that we are business owners, and we have to go to the calls. She took care of us, and reassured us that we were able to come back the next day. Ash took care of business professionally and was super kind. Even complementing me on my perfume!! The fly ride was so enjoyable and beautiful! Love how they incorporate scents, and even light misting when going over the ocean!! Our baby loved it!! However, one con, is some of the interactive exhibits didn’t work. Like some of the games. I enjoyed the Bigfoot interactive map as well as the JFK and presidential exhibit. My husband and I loved playing basketball and ski ball. The football game was pretty fun too. They were cleaning all of the balls in the ball pit, so we didn’t get to go, however it is very nice to know that it’s not a cesspool of infection! I’m glad to see that they take good care of it and they take pride and its cleanliness!! We are looking forward to bringing our little guy to the ball pit next time. We are locals, however, if you’re not from here, I would highly recommend spending an hour or two here!! It’s So Cool!! Thanks again, Ash for being awesome!! ______________________________________________ My recommendations : -Really spend some time, reading and interacting! -The JFK exhibit is really cool! -The Bigfoot exhibit is astounding. Take a look at the interactive map. -the VR stuff might make you dizzy if you’re not used to it, but it was fun! -the fly ride!! Pros: -has great AC! -Souvenirs galore! Has drinks and candy as well. -plenty of parking -Genuinely awesome staff -clean ball pit -Interactive learning and playing -fun to be there -A wide array of topics and subjects! Cons: -some of the exhibits didn’t work were out of order Thanks Again! -The Kanevski’s

Would have been higher rating, but multiple interactions were down or were not working this day.

Booked a visit here for a fun rainy day activity for a group of adults and kids. Had fun with all of the different interactions, taking pictures and learned a lot. The kids liked it and enjoyed the Flyride. Some of the interactions weren't working. It's not an all day entry and can be completed in about 1 hour - 1.5 hours. Buy tickets online for a discount. Also if you plan to do the Flywheel, plan your visit accordingly because we had to come back later as it only operates at certain times and there's a limit.

We had a great time! We visited as a family of 4, kids are 8 & 6. Highly recommend doing the combo ticket for Beyond the Lense and Flyride (Flyride is definitely worth it!) Some of the areas were down or not working, like the big foot shooting area and the alien ball pit only had enough balls to cover the floor, but we all still enjoyed our time. The selfie stations are super fun and the video game area was fun and brought back memories of games I grew up playing. The kids also loved the 3 VR games as well as the arcade style games that have unlimited plays.

Crave Golf Club in Pigeon Forge is a family-friendly destination offering candy-themed indoor and outdoor mini-golf, along with escape rooms and snacks. The indoor course takes players through a dreamland of cocoa cliffs, ice cream canyons, and a sugar safari, complete with delectable obstacles. Meanwhile, the rooftop mini golf course features 19 holes winding through environments like Rock Candy Mountain and Jellybean Jungle.
We went here for the first time and did the inside and outside courses. There was a group of 7 in front of us taking forever inside. Thankful for the cooler indoors and the many benches. Outside was incredibly hot but nobody was in front of us, people were backed up behind the 4 of us. For a Sat afternoon, it wasn’t too bad and we allowed enough time before heading to dinner. The theming/ condition of everything is very nice.

Crave Golf Club – Review We stopped in with a family of six for some fun, and overall it was a good time. We chose to play the outside course and didn’t have to wait to get started. The course was creative and had some challenging holes, which kept things interesting for all ages. There were quite a few people, though. If you’re someone who doesn’t like waiting your turn, this might not be the place for you. At one point, we had three or four groups waiting behind us, but we didn’t mind—it’s all part of the Putt-Putt experience. One issue we had was with the receipt. We noticed we were charged for two games when we only asked for one. When we brought it up, the staff first offered us a credit to come back—but we had to push a bit and explain that we don’t live anywhere near Tennessee. Eventually, the manager came over and issued a refund, but we really had to ask for it. That part felt a little off. That said, Crave is still a fun mini-golf spot. They offer a decent deal if you bundle the indoor and outdoor courses. Out of the several mini-golf options in Pigeon Forge, I personally enjoyed the Glow Putt more, but this is still a solid place for a fun family outing

We went on a Saturday about 11 am. We were able to leisurely go through both courses without feeling rushed, however as we were leaving it was starting to get busier. These were fun courses, they were kept in good shape and there is plenty of seating if you need to take a break along the way. I suggest doing the outdoor roof top one early or late as it starts to get hot quickly with the sun beating down on you, then head inside for the second course. It is nice and cool in there. The staff was nice. Be sure to look for coupons. We found one that made the second course free!

It's a family fun place. The price is a little high if you are only doing one round of mini golf. I would definitely recommend getting the package deal they have. You will get more fun for your buck.

We have played this course in the past, but this time we were super disappointed. To start, we presented a coupon for a couple of dollars off....they are in every magazine and display around the area. We were told that they no longer accept them....the new promotion is a free round. The outdoor course was starting to show its age; the handicap elevator was broken, the water wasn't flowing (stagnant in one area), and some of the concrete was broken around the course (my son tripped over it). We finished and my son decided he wanted to try the bowling; one of the four lanes was down, and we finally had to ask how to raise the gutter guards; the employee came over and said you had to hold the button down just right to make it happen. All in all, we were pretty disappointed...

Crave Mini Golf is an absolute blast! The moment you walk in, the bright colors, fun candy-themed décor, and upbeat atmosphere make it feel like stepping into a giant game. The courses are creative, well-designed, and offer plenty of variety to keep things exciting for kids and adults alike. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and organized. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. It’s the perfect spot for families, groups of friends, or even a fun date night. If you’re looking for mini golf with a twist and a lot of personality, I highly recommend checking out Crave Mini Golf—you’ll leave smiling!

We wanted something to do after a dinner show on our last night on vacation, so we decided to go play some mini golf. We played the inside course. It was really fun. They have different challenges on each hole for each player that we did to make it more fun. Would definitely come back here next time!

Anakeesta is a popular outdoor adventure destination that offers various exciting activities such as zip lining, gondola rides, and a treetop play area. It stands out among other nearby mountain attractions with its polished and flashy features. Visitors can choose between an enclosed gondola or a chairlift to reach the ridgetop village, which boasts hanging bridges, mountain coasters, dueling zip lines, and an observation tower at the summit.
Great activity for families! We got discounted tickets which helped make the decision to go! Beautiful scenes and so many places to take pictures! Great places for children to play: rope bridges and slides! We got tacos and nachos and they were super yummy! We did the light activity at night. It was pretty, I wouldn’t do it with young kids again since it’s a lot of walking and it’s a gravel path so a stroller wasn’t recommended.

Absolutely loved it here. It was a nice peaceful ride up to the mountaintop. And once you get up there the views are just absolutely incredible. Then you start walking up to the tower. Just go off the tower The view is getting better. So much to do here especially if you have kids. Unfortunately if you're a tall guy big guy you can't go through some of the activities which is on the standable such as life. But definitely a lot of fun this place. Especially during the fall time.. I would suggest go early though especially during the week. It can get pretty crowded really quickly. Especially if you park in the parking lot where they are. It gets crowded really quick.

I would love to give this a 5 star review just because of the stunning views from the "summit", however the 70 minute wait to get on the bus to get there was a major bummer (had pre-purchased tix online) I suppose I didn't research this, or Gatlinburg enough to realize it's a major tourist trap on par with the Canadian side of the Niagara Falls. Too many tourists, too many cars for one road, thank goodness there was plenty of parking. If you are willing to wait a long time to get to where you want to go, this is the place for you. I, however will not be coming back, although I'm glad I got to see it once.

I am in love with this place!!! So glad we went! You have the option of a ski lift, gondola or bus ride up. The ski lift had great views. Food and drinks were great. We added in Astra Lumina which was amazing! You have to do that! We walked the tree top rope bridges which was very fun too!

Anakeesta is absolutely beautiful — from the moment you arrive, the mountain views take your breath away. There’s plenty to do for all ages, whether you want to stroll through the gardens, ride the mountain coaster, shop, eat, or just take in the scenery from one of the overlooks. Everything feels so thoughtfully designed and well-kept, and the atmosphere is relaxed yet full of energy. It’s the perfect mix of adventure and peaceful mountain charm. Definitely a must-visit if you’re in Gatlinburg — you can easily spend the whole day there and still not see it all!
Rachel R — Google review
Beautiful, fun and worth a visit. Great food, amazing entertainment, and well worth the cost to see the views, walk the tree trail, sit around the fire, and enjoy yourself. A little busy so get your tickets online. The line was pretty long and the only sad part was being able to see how much Gatlinburg has taken from its natural beauty and filled the once gorgeous Mountain View’s with condos, hotels and houses, taking away the screen views and feelings many have enjoyed for so long. But Anakeesta was absolutely stunning and fun. It’s great for all ages.

We loved it! By your tickets in advance! Better prepared to wait to get up to the park. The views are breathtaking. Staff very friendly and accommodating! I loved riding the Hellbender and ziplining. I recommend the pass, you'll want to ride the Hellbender twice! Food was better than I expected it to be! Astria Lumina is a must! It was peaceful and calming! The music was soothing and could invoke all your emotions!

I'm gonna make this short as possible. If you buy the zipline tickets, you don't need general admission. Of course they don't tell you that, so we wasted $80 on general admission that we didn't need. Side note, we don't have kids and I'm sure it would be a different experience if you have kids. But literally other than walking around and seeing some amazing views (we found way better views in other areas outside of Gatlinburg), everything is SO expensive. $16 for a shake, $12 for a walking taco, you get the point. You buy a ticket to go up and everything up there costs so much. The zipline and mountain coasters were the best thing about going up there, but that's about it. But I'd recommend just going to a place that is known for doing the zipline and coasters instead. The sky bridge is so packed with people that it'll take twice as long to get across because you're just waiting most of the time. Glad we tried it, but not our thing. We'd rather spend time hiking or doing crafts.

Rockin' Raceway Arcade is a thrilling destination in Pigeon Forge that offers an exhilarating go-kart racetrack with hairpin turns and a retro-themed, neon-lit arcade featuring over 150 games. The arcade, designed like a giant jukebox, provides classic-style gaming fun for visitors of all ages. Guests can enjoy the excitement of winning tickets to redeem for fantastic prizes at the redemption center while experiencing the buzz and whirl of lights, bells, and whistles.
I'm on vacation a long with my 5 yr old and 3 yr old. Today it rained so we needed to find indoor activities. This arcade was great. There is a great selection of games for all ages. The games are not expensive to play which was great because my kids love playing arcade games. We easily killed an hour playing. The prizes the offer are pretty decent compared to other arcades (we visit a lot of them) we have been to. It was not crowded when we went and there's enough games that even when they are a good number of people you don't feel like you're having to wait to play every game. We will definitely come back here if we are in the area again.

Wanted to take my step daughter to an arcade and heard this was one of the best in town. Well I was honestly unimpressed. About half of the games here are just claw and coin pusher machines which I guess is great if you like those but not for me. There was really nothing here that you couldn't find at any other arcade. In fact, we went to a much smaller arcade later that day that had all the same games you could find here. I've been to other arcades that were smaller than this one but had a much better selection of games to play. As for the employees, they didn't seem to want to be there. When we went to turn in our tickets, the lady helping us never spoke a word to us. She basically only communicated to us with her eyes. We aren't unfriendly people, so there was no good reason for it. Overall, I'd say this was a below average arcade. I'm surprised at the good reviews this place has but maybe it used to be better than it is now.

DO NOT GO TO THIS ARCADE. TOURIST TRAP AND THEY ONLY WANT YOUR MONEY. Not only was there false advertisement on the wizard of oz coin pusher. Some of the staff were extremely rude about the fact we thought we were getting something that was NOT true. (The manager was nice about it the teen workers were smart and smirked and came off cocky because they were right and we thought they were wrong) It stated on the Machine that the coins were each worth 10 points. We were told “that is only for coins that fall out because they aren’t supposed to fall” but it does not state that on the machine. The last arcade we went to each coin was worth 10 points and was added to the card, this was the same machine.. So they have chosen to not let you get those points. If that’s rigged all the games must be. I spent 25 for 30 points at both and played the machine at both arcades and way revived more tickets at the other arcade!

We had a wonderful time at the arcade! The kids played many games and won a lot of tickets! Staff were okay, not a ton of excitement, yet friendly enough. I think the selection of what you could win consisted of needing way too many tickets. Overall, everyone enjoyed themselves.

Who doesn't like arcades? The game selection here was great. Not all games are just to win tickets. The staff was helpful and honest. I say honest because I asked them if this was the best place to play arcades. They gave me their honest opinions. They have the rechargeable cards that you drop some money on them and then go and play. I kinda miss the tokens though. Go here and have fun!

Small track, a little overprice. The ride was very bumpy. The cashier was prejudice and hispanic. The arcade was fun lots to play. We played one machine for 30 min and made more than 5000 points or tickets . We had fun, that's what matters 😉 😏

Indulge in delectable treats from Cream & Sugar Sweet Shoppe, gear up for outdoor adventures at REI, or find stylish footwear at Nike.
This was probably the nicest family friendly shopping mall we’ve been to. We rode the train, they had a bunge jump, a bunch of stores, we played chess, checkers and corn hole. There were a bunch of things we took pictures with (fountains, Christmas trees, Christmas light decorations etc). Multiple fire pits with seating that we sat at while the kids played. And it’s all on turf so no muddy mess. Restaurants in walking distance, clean bathrooms and small things for the kids to play on.

This is an incredibly clean and family friendly place to visit. A lot to do for all ages. From corn hole, large chess boards along with a few exciting amusement park thrill rides. If you enjoy shopping, there are several options from a hot sauce store, tea and herbs, carhartt to sun glasses mixed in with several eateries. Tons of free parking and right in the heart of all things Pigeon Forge. Price points are higher but well worth the visit.

There are also places for the kids to play, and artificial grass area and amusement rides that take you up high then drop you, or sling you. There's a Mexican restaurant and Guy Ferari's restaurant there and a souvenir shop.

We didn't go to the mall we went to Azul Mexican restaurant and sat on the top floor was very nice the bathrooms were very dirty but the food was outstanding and the view was outstanding not much as far as serving size but the quality definitely outweighed the quantity will definitely be back when we're in the area. We both got the fajitas so as far as any other food there can't really give you any feedback. But the fajitas were outstanding.

My husband, dad, and myself went here around midnight and it was such a cool experience. We’ve never played mini-golf like this. Since it was so late, we were the only ones on the course, but that made it even more fun for us. Highly recommend and would go back again.

Not a bad way to kill a day with the fam in Pigeon Forge. We got the park hopper pass, and it was a good deal for us. We did three rounds of go karts plus one round of golf and laser tag for $25/kid and $34/adult. The place was clean but there were some kitschy, dated decorations and other things, but you’re in the Myrtle Beach of the mountains, so it’s fine. The employees were really nice. My main negative is that the arcade games are $$$. We bought the $50 that gives you an additional $20, but we spent that very quickly. (We have 7-year old twins and I like the basketball games.) most of the games were a few dollars to play. I’d go again.

We picked the Shots and Glasses VIP tour as the main event for our joint bachelor/bachelorette trip for 10 people. We had the most amazing time with Judy and Sandy as our guides. They were so much fun and very knowledgeable about the area. All of the bartenders were also knowledgeable about their products and so personable at every location. We felt very special and were congratulated at every single location. We got to try so many different wines, ciders, and moonshine. Most of the locations we even got to individually pick the wines we tried. We never felt rushed and were allowed to take as much time as we needed and ask all the questions we wanted at each location. The red velvet wine at the Mountain Valley winery was my fiancé and I’s favorite. Judy and Sandy even took the extra time to offer to take pictures for us (suggesting good locations for pictures) and made sure they we got everything we wanted out of our trip, I would recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun event to add to their trip.

Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies is a vast marine facility in Gatlinburg, open 365 days a year. It houses over 10,000 marine creatures, including sharks, sea turtles, stingrays, and penguins. The aquarium features interactive exhibits like the Discovery Center for hands-on experiences with animals. Visitors can also learn about the aquarium's Systems Control area that manages millions of gallons of saltwater. Additionally, it offers a glass-bottom boat ride experience.
My family and I took my son here so he could have some fun on our trip and he sure did here. He loved the selection of sea/ocean animals and the interactive games they had throughout the facility. We order tickets beforehand on TripAdvisor (we got them in a bundle) which saved us a good bit of money.

We have been to several major aquariums, and I have to admit that I was very tempted at first to rate this one as a 3 or lower, because it didn’t in anyway compare. It seemed to be only composed of small aquariums on the walls as we walked through. The contents of those aquariums were interesting and the video descriptions next to them were well done. However, when we were able to view the aquarium;s very large central tank with free swimming sharks, saw fish, rays, and other beautiful and interesting fish, I was impressed. On the lower level of the aquarium you can walk through a long glass tunnel under that that tank and get up close and personal with the very large sea life swimming over you. There were a few also some aquarium exhibits with sea life I had never seen before including one with what has to be some of the largest crabs on earth. These dwarfed king crabs with which we are all familiar. Young children seem to especially enjoy the aquarium. There is also a kids play area with a large multi level climbing and slide contraption that they especially seemed to enjoy. I guess that the $40 per adult was not overly expensive after all.

Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies is an amazing spot for both kids and adults! It’s much bigger than you’d expect, with tons of exhibits to explore. One of the highlights is the moving conveyor tunnel, you’re surrounded by sharks, rays, and all kinds of sea life as you glide through. There are interactive displays, fun photo ops, and even a penguin walk parade that’s a must-see! The penguins are adorable and it’s a unique experience you won’t find at most aquariums. A great place to bring the family, unwind, and learn something new. Definitely worth the trip!

The glass bottom boat ride is a must! We had a good time, but for the price of admission we did expect some more sea animals.

The Ripleys aquarium is always nice to visit. It has a nice selection of species and feels unique with its design. My only 'gripe' is that I feel like nearly $50 for an adult ticket is a bit much for the size of the aquarium. The TN aquarium is much larger and it's only about $35. I still enjoy visiting, regardless though!

Very good small(ish) aquarium. Definitely a must see for the kids and sea life enthusiasts on your trip! Fair warning, they are a bit pricey, but it's not horrible.

From start to finish, Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies delivered an amazing experience that had something for everyone. The underwater tunnel was a true highlight — there’s something magical about having sharks, rays, and sea turtles glide effortlessly above you while you walk through. Our kids were completely captivated by the mermaid show, which blended entertainment with an educational touch in a way that kept their attention from start to finish. Another standout was the penguin march — an adorable and unique moment you don’t want to miss. Watching them waddle by up close brought out the “wow” in kids and adults alike. The layout of the aquarium makes it easy to explore at your own pace, with plenty of interactive areas that keep little ones engaged while still being fascinating for grown-ups. Overall, this was a fantastic experience for our whole family. It’s the perfect blend of fun, education, and memorable moments — a must-visit if you’re in the Smokies.

Patriot Park is a riverside park in Pigeon Forge, dedicated to veterans from Sevier County. It features a gazebo, walking trail, and monuments honoring veterans. The park hosts various community events and is located near the Old Mill Square. Visitors can conveniently access the park by parking at nearby offices and obtaining an all-day access bracelet for a nominal fee. Additionally, there are multiple trolley routes available for exploring the area without the hassle of driving and parking.
Went to Winterfest at the park last night. We did the Christmas lights walk and checked out the vendors. There was BBQ, coffee, crafts, ornaments, baked goods, and various Christmas things. This is a large park with several monuments and a hiking trail along the river. We always come here in the summer and let the kids feed the ducks. It's a good place for a picnic as well. Every time we eat at The Old Mill we walk it off in the park. This area has lots of shops and plenty of free parking. It's always worth a visit as everything is free.

Independence Day could not have been any better in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. The Patriot Park was full of activity, with thousands of people coming to hear the live bands and see the fireworks. Being a volunteer for Pigeon Forge, I was able to be right up front for all of the excitement. What a great day and night.It was!

We went during the festival on Independence Day and it was very crowded. We didn't think to bring camping chairs, so we only stayed for about 20 min. It looked to be a nice place.

The visit to patriot park was very nice. we took some photos and visited many of the shops in the Square which were filled with homemade jams and jellies and peppers. We saw a man pulling taffy at the candy shop. There were souvenirs and T-shirts. A beautiful pottery shop and candles. It was just a good old hometown fall festival atmosphere. It was really sweet.

A very unique state park with long mall-like walking paths with polished black granite wall engraved with history highlights that inform about the people, culture and spirit of the area. Tennessee has a lot to be proud of. Highly noticeable, though, was the absence of any mention of Dolly Parton, an admirable example of the determination, hard-working and spiritual Appalacian folk grown up to make the world a better place! I loved the World War II Memorial, the most unique, communicable, touching and historical monument I have visited in a local presentation. Just so very well done! There are numerous other educational presentations throughout the park to make this Rosa L. Parks Blvd. location a must visit for Nashville tourists and locals alike!

Nice green space between the old mill restaurant and the trolly station. October brings the Rotary Club craft show to the park space and it is a nice mix of crafters. There is a little river walk as well.

Amusement park ride
SkyFly: Soar America is an exhilarating flying theater attraction located on Margaritaville Island in Pigeon Forge. It offers a simulated flight experience showcasing stunning natural landmarks across the United States, such as the Grand Canyon and Mount Rushmore. The ride features a 50-ton platform that lifts guests into the air, creating a sensation of flight with synchronized movements and sensory effects like wind and scents.
My parents & I LOVE this ride! My mom is not a big ride person at all, but she is obsessed with this! The 3 of us rode it on Thanksgiving day in 2023 & fell so in love with it, we came back for a 2nd ride the same day! My mom & I were back at The Island a couple weeks ago & couldn't resist! My dad was totally jealous! This time, they added more places to the experience, which made it even more exciting! I have sat on both the front & middle rows, so I can attest that they're right when they say it's all a front row seat & it truly doesn't matter where you sit! (If you haven't been there, it rotates before the ride starts so the floor turns into the back wall & the 3 rows are stacked on top of each other. I don't necessarily like the initial takeoff, since I have a weak stomach, but it's really not that bad & only lasts a second or 2. Then it's a nice, smooth, easygoing ride... though they make you feel like you're about to kick some bikers' heads, crash into mountains, etc. That's part of the charm & some of the most fun parts! It's so cool how you can see the little details of the natural formations, the native animals, & the people visiting these places! My favorite parts are the extra-sensory parts, but I don't want to say too much for those who haven't ridden yet! The views are beautiful & the ride is enjoyable for kids, adults, seniors, thrill-seekers, people who only like calm rides, & even those who don't usually do rides! It is definitely for everyone! Also, my mom has always ridden her scooter into there & they are great about taking us through a slightly different entrance to avoid extra twists & turns. (There are ramps you have to turn on, so larger scooters/wheelchairs do require multi-point turns to maneuver through.) Then they reserve us seats on the end of the row of our choosing, so she can scoot right up to the exit to park her scooter. There are large basket-like compartments under the seats on the ride for purses, hats, & souvenirs. The only thing I would change would be to shorten the video crap at the beginning before the actual ride. The steampunk inventor dude & his daughter kind of talk & goof off forever & a day. It's cute at first, then a little annoying because you just want to get to the ride! LOL! They are pretty funny/silly though!

There was no line. We signed up for a 10:00 ride. We had to stand in a room and listen to an insufferable British dude and an annoying woman yap about the dumbest things for 30 minutes. The room was hot and everyone was clear miserable. At 10:30 we FINALLY got to sit down. I thought here is where it gets better. Oh how wrong I was. The ride itself is fine, but the quality of the screen is SOOOO bad it’ll make you sick. It looks like if I were to go without my glasses for a day. And trust me I am very blind. Looking past that. It right was pretty mid. I mean I didn’t laugh a couple times. But once’s I learned to like the ride, it was over. I had a timer. It lasted 11 minutes with the time it takes to buckle up. My dad was so excited and he was sick to the stomach with the cost vs what we got by the end of it. In the end it is 100% NOT WORTH IT. Here’s so photos of the quality. Picture took on my iPhone 16 with motion steady record, so don’t think the fuzziness is from the recording with the very little moving we did on this ride.

Wonderful attraction. Very in-depth preshow to help pass the time while waiting. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The flying theater was well maintained and the picture quality and sound were top notch. Ride operators were thorough in checking seats and restraints. Check local coupon books for discount codes. Purchase tickets online if it’s a busy time of year, otherwise purchasing in person is fine. Nice gift shop and there are photo opportunities to get a nice group picture. Keep your receipt and re-ride the same day for $10.

We went to "The Island," in Pigeon Forge where this exciting attraction is located. My friend works at Dollywood and treated me on a "park exchange" program. However, the manager, Jesse, regretted to inform us that DW does NOT HONOR this attraction as part of the park exchange program. Shame on you, Dollywood, as this was 100% worth the admission price. We experienced places on earth we'd never see otherwise-- in a drone like/ birds flight perspective. It gave me chills to "soar" over the grand canyon, the islands, the ocean and so much more. The technology is pretty awesome with no special glasses or VR needed. Your seat lifts and gently tilts to match the soaring perspective, with some clever surprises as well! I will say that the videos you watch beforehand are a bit monotonous but it's well worth putting up with once you get into the ride and seated!! I'd go again & again....

This was a lot of fun. It takes a while to get in there, and all of the screen talk was unnecessary, but it's supposed to be part of the experience to get your money's worth, I guess. Line up on the blue dots if you're able- after you get up there ( you'll know what I mean when you get there) Also HD would have been nice to make the experience more realistic, still fun nonetheless and I'm glad I visited!!

First thing that stood out, was that no one seemed like they new what they where doing. Most of the staff back stage was unfriendly. Most of them were brand new. 2nd red flag was there was throw up on the the bottom of the screen and when I told them about it, they blew it off like no one cared. I even asked to speak to a manager or supervisor and the lady gave me the ticket prices instead. After asking 3 more times just so hopefully I could tell someone that would care, I was told that their manager was down stairs and was unavailable. 3rd red flag, was that the film was not done for the screen. The used a 1080p video with a cheep projector against a IMAX screen. The image was completely distorted trying to use a horrific video that all Most every video was blurry. The transitions weren't subtle. Going from one clip to another and you can see the different quality of videos. Jumping from 1080p to 720p, back to 1080p with the transitions made it very nauseating for my wife. They also need to shoot the mist about 2 seconds earlier so it hits you right when the screen hits the water. There is alot to work on to get better. They are in a great location, but need to use a true I-Max camera with an IMAX projector so it looks like your actual soaring. Staff needs more training. It needs to be cleaned better. The video screen is the money and they can't even keep it clean. It was dark and dried like it's been there for a minute. Will they listen and fix it. We will see.

Best Ride me and my husband (we're Seniors)have enjoyed in a long time! The floor gives way and off you go! You literally feel like your flying across this wonderful Country visiting a lot of great places and then your dashing down very near waterfalls and water misting your face as you fly very close by. It was incredible! Found myself holding up my legs to miss the rocks coming close to me because it felt so real. It was crazy. As Seniors, it was a safe ride for us and very comfortable. We waited a mere 15 minutes to get in but it took about 30 minutes to wind your way to the boarding. But despite that, a lot of "travelers" had ridden once already and couldn't wait to do it again. That made it exciting. Wonderful places to experience that you may not get to visit in your life. Yet, you feel like you just did. We loved it! Deserves a 10 🌟

Love the ride but hate the intro. We waited in line watching the intro over and over for about 40 minutes. We all (11 of us) enjoyed the ride but don't think we will do it again because of waiting so long watching the intro. Could you please do something about the long wait before being able to actually experience the ride?

Live music venue
Ole Smoky Distillery "The Barn" is a popular spot in Pigeon Forge, known for its live bluegrass music performances and energetic atmosphere. Located at The Island, it offers a mesmerizing spectacle of water and light with the Island Show Fountains. The distillery boasts an extensive collection of moonshines, whiskeys, and canned cocktails produced in the Smoky Mountains.
We stopped by here during our trip in Tennessee. We tried many different moonshines and some flavored whiskeys. We enjoyed the Caramel whiskey and the Blackberry Moonshine. The other flavors were great and the fun items like moonshine soaked dill pickles and green beans were tasty. We ended up leaving with a bottle of salted caramel whiskey, a jar of Black berry moonshine, and a jar of white lightning moonshine. The employees were very friendly and helpful. They helped me and my wife try many different flavors and explained the distilling process to us. If you enjoy whiskey or moonshine stop by Old Smoky is a very recognizable and accessible brand nation wide but going to the place where the brand is made is better than anything. If you’re in Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg this is a great place to stop. I recommend this 100% a fun tasty experience.

Lashes was our server for the tasting, she was great and interactive and pleasant. For $5 you get to try 9 different shots of moonshine and at the end you got a $5 off coupon for the store so it’s free as long as you buy something. The atmosphere was fun and there were people of all ages doing the tasting and enjoying themselves. When we went you got a free cooler if you bought 3 different things which was nice. Pricing is comparable to the online store as shown in the picture below.

Place was busy but they handled it pretty well. Bartender Big Country was funny. Paid $8 for the premium tasting which was well worth it and you then get a $5 off coupon. We bought 3 jars and earned a free cooler bag, that was great for carting our haul through the rest of the shops. Our fault for not doing research but we didn’t realize it was in the middle of a big shopping/entertainment center and the place was packed!

While I did not do a tasting at the bar, I shopped around and found a few jars I knew I liked. When I went to check out I was greeted by Elora. She was amazing!

Escape room center
The Escape Game Pigeon Forge offers an exciting and challenging experience for groups looking to test their teamwork skills. With five different themed rooms to choose from, participants can immerse themselves in various scenarios such as art theft, prison breaks, space rescues, and treasure hunts. Open until midnight, it's a great nighttime activity after other attractions have closed. Whether you see yourself as a master detective or an intrepid explorer, this high-stakes adventure will put your problem-solving abilities to the test.
This was our first time trying this escape room chain and it won’t be our last! We absolutely LOVED it. The rooms and customer service were TOP NOTCH and after we finished one room we ended up booking another and even returned the following day to do more! The prices are a little on the high side but the rooms and the experience are totally worth it (plus they offer 20% off an additional booking after you complete a room). All the employees and game masters were INCREDIBLY helpful and friendly. We done many escape rooms and this place is definitely our new favorite location!

The most amazing staff in the area!! They are all super friendly and welcoming! This was our first escape room experience, and I have a feeling any other we attend from here forward will be a disappointment as The Escape Room Pigeon Forge is setting the bar quite high! We escaped The Heist, our first one, but didn't quite make it through Prison Break. We were thinking a little too outside the box and the guide had to reset us a few times in the process which ate up time. She handled it really well and said, "No one's ever tried that before! Ha ha!"

We did Gold Rush and it was amazing. Anna was an awesome host and made our experience that much better. She insured we had a blast and when we needed help she didn’t just give us the answer she gave us a legit clue and still made us figure it out which was what we wanted. So to Anna thank you so much for making our first ever escape room an absolute memory! And to the rest of the staff y’all were awesome and polite. Thank y’all all so much for everything and making it a fun night. We can’t wait to come back and do another room!!!

Our family loves escape rooms and we’ve been to several before. We checked around a bunch of places around Pigeon Forge and we ended up choosing The Escape Game in the Island. We loved their escape rooms so much that we ended up doing 3 of them over a couple days (They give you a discount on subsequent games if you book more within a day or two). Not only did this business look higher quality than the others we checked out, but at the price it was also cheaper per person somehow. The quality of the set design, integration of the screens and interconnectivity with the games (Cosmic Crisis and Timeliner especially). We were blown away by all of it enough to spend more money with them and come back three times. We also highly recommend their sister business Great Big Game Show in the same plaza. Such a super unique experience to be a part of your own family game show! Love these places and we will be back in coming years for sure to knock out the other rooms! Our reviews of the rooms in order of how much we loved them: Cosmic Crisis (The most fun we had and required the most team work in unison. Our 6 year old loved Hermes the computer AI that helped you during the game) Timeliner (A bit more difficult but had a super cool time travel theme that we loved and the sets are wild! Such a fun time!) Gold Rush (This one was fun as well, however it was the simplest by far and we solved it without any clues at all with an extra 20 mins to spare) It’s worth doing maybe if you’re a beginner? This company is super legit and the quality of everything is top notch, highly recommended!

SpeedZone Fun Park, situated in the heart of Pigeon Forge, is a family-friendly destination offering four distinct go-kart tracks. The Slick Track provides an exhilarating racing experience, while the Kids Track allows little ones to take the wheel. The Tennessee Twister offers twists and turns for added excitement, and the Coaster Track promises fun for the whole family.
So much fun! Nice track and honestly a super good deal for the price. We bought the Park Hopper pass (x5 attractions) for us + our two 8 year olds. We started at Speed Zone for one go-kart ride then went to LazerPort Fun Center for their go-kart track + lazer tag, and then ended at Xtreme Racing for our last go-kart rides. Parking at all places was easy and there wasn’t a long wait. Worth the money! (Pic of track is at LazerPort, my personal fave!)

I bought my son a park hopper pass to ride at 3 parks along the Pigeon Forge strip - SpeedZone, Xtreme Racing and LaserPort Fun Park. The tracks all varied in size, length and complexity. My son said a lot them were very bumpy though and bounced him around a lot. He loved the Drift track, but said it would be even better if they made it slicker. Since he was riding solo and the track was empty, the attendant, Indy, hooked me up with a single ride on the drift track. My son and I chased each other and had a blast.

3 different tracks onsite plus 4 other tracks at two other parks on the parkway when you buy a park hopper pass. The tracks are well taken care of some are covered and all are lit so not even the rain or dark of night could slow you down. The carts are all in pretty good shape, and decently fast for family level go cart racing tracks. But not the "pro" level that they claim. Overall a fun day with the family that everyone will enjoy.

The vibrant 18-hole course features oversized toys like the Rubik's Cube and Slinky, providing plenty of photo opportunities. It's not just about golfing; visitors can also explore a toy shop, navigate a laser maze, and immerse themselves in the world of giant toys.
The course was fun, music was upbeat, candy store had a ton of options! If you are going to be in town I’d buy the pass, it was a bit expensive, $66 for three of us to play one round. We played rock paper scissors for player positions to determine our extra for each hole, that was a neat twist. Overall, good time, friendly staff!

Such a great experience. As you work your way around town, it’s hard to miss The Toy Box. If you have little kids, they will notice it right away, and you have to stop to check it out. I’m so glad we did. Not only is the staff very friendly and the place very clean, but the mini golf is amazing, and the candy shop is top-notch. They offer a super pass, which gets you into all four of their properties. I highly recommend this. We went to three of the properties over two days, and we had such a great time. All the properties are run by the same friendly cadre of people, all are very clean, and each of them have their own little variety of things to do. They will keep you and your kids entertained for hours. This is now on our list of must go when we visit again.

Scenic Helicopter Tours: An Unforgettable Aerial Adventure!My recent experience with Scenic Helicopter Tours was nothing short of spectacular, and I can't recommend them highly enough. If you're looking for a unique and breathtaking way to see the beauty of the region, this is absolutely the way to go. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, enjoyable, and incredibly memorable.First and foremost, the "fun" factor is off the charts. There's something inherently exhilarating about taking to the skies in a helicopter. The views are simply unparalleled – sweeping vistas of mountains, valleys, and landmarks that you simply cannot appreciate from the ground. Every turn offered a new perspective and a fresh "wow" moment. Whether it was the lush greenery, the winding rivers, or the distant peaks, the scenery was captivating and made for some truly stunning photos. The sensation of flight itself is a thrill, yet it's also surprisingly smooth and comfortable, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the experience.Beyond the sheer enjoyment, I was pleasantly surprised by how reasonably priced the tour was. For such a premium and unique activity, the value for money was exceptional. I've often found similar experiences to be quite expensive, but Scenic Helicopter Tours offers an accessible way to enjoy a truly once-in-a-lifetime adventure without breaking the bank. It felt like a luxury experience at a very fair cost, making it an excellent option for anyone looking to add a special highlight to their trip.Perhaps the most impactful part of the experience was our super nice guide. Their professionalism, knowledge, and genuinely friendly demeanor made the tour even better. Our pilot was not only highly skilled and made us feel completely safe, but they were also incredibly engaging. They pointed out key landmarks, shared interesting facts about the area, and answered all our questions with enthusiasm. It wasn't just a flight; it was an informative and personalized journey guided by someone who clearly loves what they do. Their passion for the region and for flying was infectious, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to an already fantastic tour.In summary, Scenic Helicopter Tours delivers on every front: thrilling fun, excellent value, and exceptional service from their friendly and knowledgeable team.

My husband and I are on our honeymoon, from Ohio and have never rode in a helicopter. To try something different and break out of our shell, we decided to try it out. So relaxing but so fun especially with friendly staff and of course, the pilot we had, Nick. Thank you Nick and staff!!

Brought my aunt out from Florida to cross this off her bucket list… the staff was sooo friendly… even with a 15/20 min rain delay we had a great time… staff even offered us a drink while we waited… everyone on site was very pleasant… our pilot Nick was nice and very easy with the flight… flew very calmly and landed it so easy… thanks for the great experience

Lost Mine Mountain Coaster and Mini-Golf offers an exciting experience with its 8 1/2-minute long mountain coaster ride, where you can control the speed and enjoy stunning views. The mini-golf course is bear-themed and provides a variety of hole strategies. The coaster is described as high-tech, featuring a cozy viewing area with a fire pit at night. Visitors appreciate the option to ride again at a discounted price.
The Lost Mine was such a fun stop! The 18-hole putt-putt course had us laughing the whole way with its hilarious bear-and-honey backwoods theme. The mountain coaster was the real highlight—tons of loops and hills made it an absolute thrill! We were told it could last up to 8 minutes at top speed, and it felt like a great value for the price. We went in the morning and loved that we could come back that night at a discounted rate to ride again with all the lights—it was a totally different (and awesome) experience! Definitely worth checking out!

Was on a family trip last week and this was one of the many coasters we visited more than once. It was great! We didn't golf but the staff was wonderful at helping us with tickets and getting into the coaster. The tunnel to get to the ride the kids loved. It was a great idea as if you're in a mine. We didn't have too long of a wait to get through the line. We did both day and night ride. Overall if we visit the area again this would be a coaster for us to ride again.

Just brilliant ~ paid for both, Coaster and mini golf were just great fun... Good way to spend a couple of hours in the glorious sunshine.. Highly recommend both 😀 Saved $4 dollars by using a coupon from one of the many coupon books in the local area. The coaster was great fun and fast, barely touched the brakes 😂.. And the mini golf was brilliant, great little course and challenging. Visitors from the UK 🇬🇧👍

I absolutely loved this place! Surrounded by the beautiful mountains of Tennessee sits this gem. The mountain coaster and mini golf building, signs, and fixtures take you back in time. The parking lot has ample parking spaces. Inside you take a short walk down a dark hall which opens up to the mountain coaster area. There is a 2 person limit to each coaster. The ride takes around 10-15 mins depending on speed and can go up to 30mph. It's super fun! You control the speed on the track while maintaining safe distance from the person in front of you. There are turns and dips as well as cool sounds and a few surprises. You can hear others cheering or having a blast. It made me feel like a kid again. While you can't have your phone on the ride, there is an option to purchase a video of your ride which is emailed to you. I really liked this. You can also ride at night. After the coaster ride you go outside, pick your putter, and grab a golf ball for 18 holes of mini golf. Every hole have a fun and colorful theme. The bears are adorable. On the last hole the ball is collected and you return your putter. There are small concessions for purchase like ice cream sandwiches and drinks. This is aperfect place for family fun, date nights, or time with friends.

We had an absolute blast at Lost Mine Mountain Coaster! From start to finish, the experience was smooth, fun, and worth every penny. The staff were upbeat, fun, and super friendly — you can tell they genuinely enjoy what they do and make sure everyone has a great time. There was little to no wait, which made the experience even better. The coaster itself was incredible — fast, scenic, and easy to control so you can go at your own pace, whether you want an adrenaline rush or just take in the mountain views. The location was perfect and easy to find, close to everything yet still tucked away enough to feel peaceful and private. The atmosphere had that cozy mountain charm that made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better time. We’ll definitely be back again — such a fun, well-run spot that’s perfect for all ages!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Lost Mine in Pigeon Forge – A Must-Do Adventure! If you're looking for the most exciting ride in Pigeon Forge, The Lost Mine absolutely delivers! From the moment you arrive, the whole experience feels like a hidden gem—pun intended. The ride itself is thrilling, immersive, and incredibly well put together. You can tell a lot of thought went into the design, from the lighting and sound effects to the smooth pacing and story elements. It’s fun, fast, and full of surprises. I especially love going at night—the atmosphere is next-level with all the glowing elements and cooler temps. It’s chill but still packed with energy, making it perfect for families, friend groups, or even solo adventurers. Whether you're a kid or just a kid at heart, this ride keeps you entertained from start to finish. And it’s not just the ride! The whole site has a great vibe. There’s putt-putt right next door, plus gem mining for the little ones (or anyone who loves shiny things). It’s a full-on experience that makes it easy to spend a whole afternoon there without getting bored. Yes, it’s a little pricey—but honestly, it’s worth it. I had an absolute blast and would go back in a heartbeat. If you’re in Pigeon Forge and want something unforgettable, The Lost Mine is the spot.

James was so friendly, he made my boy's 1st experience at a mountain coaster awesome. He showed kindness during the surprise storm too and we appreciated it very much. So thankful they got to experience the ride at daytime and then again at night for a special rate. You should definitely take advantage of that, plus the deal with the mini golf combo.

They interact with the crowd and it is an event that you'll never forget. I got a tank top that was $50 but I got it signed by all the micro wrestlers for free. You can also get pictures at the end of the show with all the micro wrestlers for $5 a person.

Miniature golf course
Amusement center
Embark on an extraordinary adventure at Sky Pirates of Mermaid Bay, a captivating miniature golf experience that transports you to an enchanting world beneath the sea. With 18 holes indoors and another 18 on the rooftop, this immersive attraction offers a delightful escape for visitors of all ages. Encounter friendly mermaids, lively pirates, and meticulously designed courses that promise an unforgettable time. The well-maintained facility ensures a clean and enjoyable environment for everyone.
We have done plenty of mini golf around this area and this one is in my top 3 favorites! We did both courses but my favorite was the upper pirate themed one. Each hole had a fun "pirate challenge" that made the experience even more fun and memorable. There is a pirate ship with a slide that the two adult men with us went down 🤪 And the pirate that we interacted with made us all laugh. The indoor mermaid theme was a more challenging course and we had a great time with it. Queen Coral the mermaid greeted us outside of the course and she was so beautiful and friendly! She was happy to take photos with us and gave us little trinkets to take home 🧜🏼‍♀️ Both courses had plenty of photo ops and things to keep busy with if we were waiting on the group ahead of us. We will definitely come back to this one! ⚓🐠

What a fun experience! Immerse yourself into an underwater world of mini golf ⛳️ I love the fog machine that made it feel like you were truly under waves. Visitors should know there are two courses, the mermaids bay which is indoors and the sky pirates that's outdoors on the rooftop. We stumbled upon this gem on a rainy day and we're so glad we did! It's absolutely worth the ticket. Each putt has a challenge to make the game that much more interesting if you care to try them. I can't wait to return!
Kiarylane C — Google review
Both courses were pretty fun to play regularly. You could go crazy with all the things they say at the start of each hole to make it interesting. The theming here was great for both courses! They went all out. I would say the craziest hole is the one close to the rotating clam. It's cool with the ramp, but if you hit it too hard, it will go into the parking lot. The group 2 ahead of us launched their ball into the parking lot. The slide in the pirate ship was pretty fun, even for a 6ft tall guy like myself. A lot of creativity for the holes. Hole in ones were easier to get than I would think by judging the holes or maybe we are just that good. Lol.
Corey F — Google review
We had so much fun here! The outdoor Sky Pirate course was a bit easier and had a pirate character to interact with guests. My favorite course was the indoor Mermaid course. The themeing was incredible and we had such a blast taking advantage of all the photo ops! Both courses had fun themed challenges to make it more interesting. This place was awesome!

Super cool!! There was an older couple ahead of us with there 8 year old grand son just having the time of their lives. It was nice and cool inside on a super hot day. Was really a great time. I've included a set of photos we took along the way... the last hole...my wife hit the ball just hard enough for it to stop at the top of the ramp. Bro, she list by 1 pt. We would have tied!!!!

TLDR: awesome experience even if you don’t like mini golf. I always hated mini golf, I always had to go w my little brother on vacations and it’s the only sport I’m awful at lol. We took our daughter and had such a great time here I actually want to go back! Everything is super clean, even the bathrooms. The themes are well thought out and there are lots of cool statues and designs throughout. There’s an outdoor course on the roof, and an indoor course inside. The courses are challenging but simple enough for kids. There are even really fun additional optional challenges on each hole. An AWESOME addition was the live actors playing Pirates and mermaids, who do an amazing job staying in character and entertaining everyone. Pierre the Pirate played checkers with our daughter for a min and Queen Coral and the other mermaid were wonderful with her as well. I will absolutely recommend this place!
Laura B — Google review
Excellent indoor mini golf. The best we have been to, I believe. The ocean theme was whimsical and fun and the courses seemed to be well maintained. For a family of 4, it cost $80, so a little pricey in my opinion, but it seems like everything in Pigeon Forge costs a little more than it could. They also have an outdoor course, we were trying to get out of the sun so we did not do that one. They have mermaid actresses in a couple spots as well and they were very friendly to my kids, which was nice!
Kelly — Google review
Indoor and outdoor courses with a techno-pirate mermaid theme. The team members play into the theming, kids can get pix with a mermaid. Recommend doing the rooftop course early in the day or evening to beat the summer heat. There’s a slide inside the ship. Really fun course and activity. We ended up getting a package deal with some other nearby attractions so we could play as much as we wanted for 24 hours.

🌟 The Island in Pigeon Forge – A Beautiful, Must-Visit Spot Visiting The Island in Pigeon Forge is always a great experience. It’s clean, well-maintained, and feels a bit more upscale compared to the main strip. Whether you’re with family, friends, or just exploring solo, there’s something for everyone.

There are tons of shops to browse, fun activities to try, and plenty of food options to satisfy any craving. It’s a great mix of entertainment and relaxation, perfect for both adults and kids. One highlight is the SkyFly ride—super fun and definitely worth checking out. It’s immersive, exciting, and one of the best attractions on site. The whole area just has a more polished, classy vibe compared to the rest of the strip, and that makes it stand out. If you’re in Pigeon Forge, The Island is 100% worth the visit. Highly recommended!

Fun and diverse. It is a little crowded. However, there is so much to do. Free parking and a nice ambiance, dinosaurs included. Lot's of shopping to do from food, clothes and typical mountain stuff. Lot of entertainment and dinning for all tastes and budgets. Keep in mind that everything is paid individually, so it adds up quick.

The water show was fun and the big ferris wheel made it feel like you were on a boardwalk. They have other little rides and activities for kids too. I really liked the Kermit's Keylime store. Several of the gift shops had nice handmade jewelry and nice quality clothes. Very touristy. Dining options are places like Dick's Last Resort. It was a nice place to spend the afternoon.

Parrot Mountain and Gardens is a serene sanctuary and parrot sanctuary that offers the opportunity to engage with exotic birds. Nestled in the Smokies, this unique nature preserve is home to a wide array of tropical birds. Visitors can enjoy conversing with chatty parrots, feeding lorikeets, and capturing moments with vibrant feathered companions. The site also boasts a nursery where guests can interact with adorable baby birds and consider adopting one as a pet.
Glad we decided to visit this hidden treasure. Well worth the money and exceeded our expectations. The staff was great, the grounds were beautiful, and the birds were spectacular. It was great being able to see so many different types of birds up close and personal. My favorite things were feeding nectar to the birds in the aviary and having them land on me (pay the extra $3!), and feeding the parrots in the Bird Garden. There’s something for everyone to enjoy here!

My favorite place to visit in Pigeon Forge! So many beautiful friendly birds to meet and you can handle many of them. As a parrot lover and owner, this gem is top of my list of places to visit in the area. Parking is a bit wonky on an incline so beware of that. Some of the birds bite, read the stickers on their perches! We saw lots of people not following rules and nearly losing a finger for it. Parrots can be unpredictable! Even Some of the friendly ones were not in the mood to be handled, but that's okay, we don't judge! Most of my parrots are quick to let me know they aren't in the mood for handling so I am used to it! Many of the parrots here are rescues from all kinds of situations so the fact Many of them are so tolerant of handling is amazing. There was a little green cheek conure that was obsessed with us and just wanted to snuggle, so sweet. We also tried the lorikeet feeding this time, that was pretty cool, though once they quickly eat the food youre provided they no longer care about you lol. The birds all seem pretty happy and healthy and the caged ones have very large enclosures. I do feel Many of them could be offered more toys, but I dont think they stay there all the time so that would make sense. The only thing I was sad about is I didnt see the little violet clear headed indian ringneck who was my favorite last time we visited! I hope he is still alive and well! He was a sass but soooo cute!!!
Nicole J — Google review
This was a great activity overall! There are so many exotic birds and many of them you can interact with! The feeding ticket is an extra $3 but it is worth it. You will enter a cage with birds that will fly over to you and land on your arms, shoulders, and head! Do not miss the baby birds for sale room. You do not have to buy, but you still get to hold and pet the little birds there. They have a restaurant onsite and this is where I will level my only criticisms. The food is pricey, but then our order was rung up with even higher charges. We asked about it and the cashier corrected one of the items, but it still was not correct. We just let it go at that point. It was also disappointing to come back for a drink refill after having paid so much to be told that refills cost an additional $1.00. So if you eat at the cafe, be sure to double check your bill before paying. That said I still highly recommend Parrot Mountain. The birds were very educational and fun to see, and the interactive exhibits were a wonderful experience. Very nice people own the park and it appears well taken care of. Last thing to mention: small children can do great here because they have birds that are smaller for them to play with.

So much better than expected. We all had such a wonderful day at Parrot Mountain! So much to see and experience. Be sure to ask for Terri, she was our tour guide.

The staff were not very friendly and I felt like they were way more aimed at getting as many people through as possible versus creating an experience for their guests. Our server didn't tell us anything about the rules about tasting or the wines we were trying or anything else. She never even told us her name or I would include it in this review. None of the wines were good. The only positive thing about this place was that it's a part of the wine trail where you can get free gifts. I wouldn't go otherwise.

Ashley was our bartender. Quite a few flavors to try. Definitely recommend the Apple Pie, Bananas Foster, Blackberry (with lemonade), and Pumpkin Roll. Nice vibe inside. Right across from the Old Mill and Pottery House Cafe.

Decent flavors. A lot were fairly sweet, but they were balanced well with the flavor profile. They don't have a set tasting or price, you just tip what you think is fair and they keep 'em coming. It was nice to be able to try all the ones we were interested in, and we took a few home to enjoy.

One of my favorite places to visit when I am in Pigeon Forge. Great people and great Moonshine. The Chocolate and Carmel Moonshines are the flavors that I buy the most, I use the Chocolate Moonshine when I make my Chocolate Chip Brownies and the Carmel Moonshine when I make my Salted Carmel Chocolate Chip Brownies. Both of them are very good if I say so myself. I brought a batch of brownies for the employees when my mom and I visited in August. Highly recommend Old Forge for your Moonshine.

Went in today with my Aunt and Nieces. (I'm local and brought them there) My niece had her license but didn't realize it was expired. Completely reasonable that they couldn't let her taste. BUT the lady said "It expired in July, why wouldn't you have renewed it?" I could not believe how rude she was. Plus, it's none of her buiness. A simple "I'm sorry, it's expired" would have sufficed. She acted Completely disgusted that she even had to speak to us. Seems like they would have someone with a little bit better customer service working with the public. We came there to buy stuff but left immediately. Embarrassing to have to apologize for a local business when I brought people there to shop. Do better.

They offer police and military discount which I really appreciate their appreciation for what we do every day protecting the community!!!

Went for the good reviews and also read the bad reviews to be prepared. Some of the bad reviews are due to the staff not being polite but that wasn't my experience. I was greated and treated well from everyone. I purchased a bottle and some gifts and the workers at the counter were nice. I also order an old fashion to taste the bourbon before ordering a bottle and it was very good. Almost everywhere I go I order one to compare and this one didn't disappoint.

Ripley's Mountain Coaster is a thrilling experience located in Gatlinburg, offering riders the chance to control their sleds as they navigate through the forest on a track. The coaster provides beautiful views of the Smoky Mountains as it slowly pulls riders to the top before sending them twisting and turning back down. It is one of several mountain coasters in Gatlinburg, but stands out for its smooth double track and claimed faster speeds.
What a ride! The Ripley Mountain Coaster was way more exciting than I expected—an absolute thrill from start to finish! The views going up were stunning, and the ride down was fast, twisty, and just pure fun. Loved that you can control the speed a bit, so it’s great whether you want to take it slow or go full speed (I went full speed, no regrets!). It felt super safe and well managed, and the staff were cheerful and helpful throughout. Perfect little adrenaline rush with a mountain view—definitely worth it if you're in the area. Would 100% ride again!

Our church ladies at Family worship center -Lawrenceburg Ky went on a woman’s retreat this week/weekend. We had so much fun riding the mountain coaster. The employees were amazing. One very special person was Daniel. He was so polite and kind. He truly blessed us. He was amazing. A beautiful smile ! He sure brightened our trip!! His kindness and smile was contagious!! We loved the ride. It was so fun. Very clean atmosphere!!

We had a group of us go during the evening. Cat was our ride operator & she calmed our nerves being we have never been on one before. She answered all our questions & made sure we knew exactly what to do. I also had trouble with my seat belt being twisted and she made sure to help me until I got it right. After Cat made sure to ask if we enjoyed it & that we had fun & we sure did!! Will definitely be going back & hopefully she will be there again!!

This was so much fun! I was scared it was going to be crazy fast and more like a roller coaster but it is not at all! You control the speed so you can go the speed you are comfortable with. After I was comfortable I had it at full speed and it still wasn't crazy fast. I got off and wanted to go again.

They’re lucky to have her for sure…she’s a gem ❤️ Highly recommend as a family coaster for sure!

Did this as an add-on with other Ripley's activities so it was very inexpensive. Wait time to get on ride was less than 15 minutes. Staff was polite and gave clear instructions for what to do. The ride was fun but short. The carts you ride in hold 1-2 people with a lever to control speed. The carts locked onto the rails and had wire fencing along both sides making it very safe.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely incredible customer service! My wife accidentally dropped her iPhone on the Ripley’s Mountain Coaster earlier this evening, and we were heartbroken — especially since we’re heading back to Ohio first thing tomorrow morning. We came back this evening hoping for a miracle, and thanks to Colby (I believe he was the manager on duty) and Gabby (worked the front ticket counter), we got one! Colby went above and beyond to take the time and initiative to safely locate the phone, and Gabby was kind, professional, and genuinely cared about helping us. They treated us with total respect and took our situation seriously from the start. We’re so thankful for their kindness and effort — they completely saved our trip. We also really enjoyed the awesome ride photos taken by the crew on my wife’s phone — such a fun memory to take home! Because of Colby and Gabby, I highly recommend Ripley’s Mountain Coaster to anyone visiting Gatlinburg. Outstanding people and an unforgettable experience!

The Track in Pigeon Forge is a sprawling family fun center offering a variety of activities for all ages. It features an exciting race track, arcade games, mini-golf, bumper cars, and elevated go-kart tracks that take you up 3.5 stories before zooming back down with a surprising drop at the bottom. Additionally, visitors can enjoy attractions such as Blaster Boats, Skyflyer, and the Surfin Safari miniature golf course.
My kids had been eyeing this place since we arrived and it didn’t disappoint! They had plenty of rides for kids of all ages. We were a little bummed the bumper boats weren’t open, but there was still plenty to do and we had a blast! There are plenty of places like this on the strip in PF, but this one was great. I highly recommend it, and the staff was great too. We went first thing in the morning and didn’t wait at all.

This is a fun place with quite a few things to do. We did the go karts and mini golf and had a blast doing it. The staff is kind and efficient. I would definitely recommend doing one of their packages because it ends up being cheaper than buying individual points. You have to buy points and that is how you get to do the activities. For 2 people we did the 60 point package and did a game of mini golf and one round of go karts on the old woody leaving some points on the card one of us did another round of go karts just so we didn't leave points on the card because we were leaving the next day and wouldn't have been back to use them up another day.

We got the $55 pass and it was a great value for the costs. My child was able to enjoy the kiddie rides. We did two rounds of golf carts and still had ample tickets leftover for the arcade. There are: a few go kart tracks, bumper cars, kiddie rides, water cars things, put put, a few attractions that take you in the air, and the arcade.

This was our first time here. I would definitely be back. I traveled with my grandchild that has Austin. He enjoyed himself so much. A little hidden fact. Because I had to ride with him, they only charged me one time. I was very impressed. I found this information out by a mom who was there, who also had Autistic twin boys.

Our daughter and her cousins are pre-school aged and love amusement rides. We couldn’t decide if we should try Dollywood this year or save some money and wait till they’re older. I am SO glad we found The Track Kids Country and went there instead! If you have a child 5 and under, this section of “The Track” was absolutely perfect!! It is located within the park, but separate from the bigger rides and attractions, so it is much less crowded. There are roughly 7-10 rides in this area completely dedicated to little kids! Our group had a 2 year old, 3 year old, and 4 year old and they all had an absolute blast! There was no waiting in lines and they had attendants floating throughout the area that were quick to hop into place whenever a child wanted to go on a ride that no one was on. It even had its own mini-arcade where kids could still earn tickets for prizes to redeem at the main arcade. Each ride is 5 points and we purchased the 60 pt card for $55 and it was more than enough for our daughter to enjoy all the rides and arcade games she wanted. We try to stay away from the main strip of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg as much as possible when we visit the smokies, but venture in once or twice while we’re there to do something touristy for the kids. We will definitely come here again next time we’re in town when we need an amusement park fix!

Lid'l Dolly's Factory Store is a delightful haven for those who appreciate the art of quilting and handmade apparel. This expansive shop boasts an impressive collection of over 300 unique quilts, making it the largest quilt retailer in the Southeast. Each quilt is meticulously handcrafted on-site, showcasing the incredible talent of local artisans. But that's not all—this charming store also features a stunning array of handmade dresses inspired by Appalachian traditions, perfect for little girls and their dolls alike.
Came into the store trying to find a backup quilt for mattresses just in case one got damaged. Was given a coupon that we didn't really need due to having a military discount that ended up being better than the coupon. The items here were well priced for great quality, and the staff was very helpful and friendly. Overall, it was a very good store for finding new bedding and quilts. Sincerely, Pancake

This store is AWESOME! Went in just to browse for one quilt for a gift for a friend, walked out with three for my self, and one for a friend and did not break the bank! So many beautiful quilts all reasonably priced! This will become a must stop every time I am in that area! Staff was super helpful and so nice!

This is the kind of local quality and quantity type of gift shop/store that used to be the predominant kind in Pigeon Forge. The types of items to buy are representative of the Pigeon Forge that made it to what it is today. The doll section is filled with handmade dresses for both the larger dolls and American girl sized dolls! My daughter LOVED hers!! Adorable Dresses for little girls of so many different sizes!! Bedding, quilts, home decoration and Christmas decorations. A definite MUST when visiting Pigeon Forge! The nostalgia that came over me when entering this shop was overwhelming.. this is the Pigeon Forge I grew up on and I hope this store is supported to continue that part of this city forever.

Love the shop. Went to purchase a Lil Dolly dress for my 8 month old granddaughter. Beautiful dresses plus lots of other nice gifts. The only reason for the 4 stars is for the older cashier who rang us up. She wasn't very friendly and seemed put off because I asked for a water. There was a note on the cooler door that specifically said to ask cashier for cold drinks. My water wasn't even cool, just lukewarm. The other cashier they had, who was younger, seemed very friendly and I even saw her retrieving cold drinks for customers who asked, with a smile.

Staff was super friendly! BUT--If your gonna charge "hand-made quilt" prices then they probably shouldn't all be made in china quilts... super disappointed with that. Im so over the whole "made in china" crap. Probably cost the store $1.00 to make those mass produced quilts but they want $150+ for them.

The Smoky Mountain Opry is a large, state-of-the-art venue that offers music and dance shows with impressive laser effects and performers suspended in the air. It's a great option for family fun, along with other attractions like mini golf, laser tag, and dining at Bullfish Grill.
Awesome show!!!! So worth the money. Mom and I went in mini vaca to kick off the holiday season and this was the best show off our trip. Filled with beautiful Christmas songs and dancing, as well as some other cool things. You won't be disappointed.

The show was amazing, we went to celebrate our Anniversary. The show is so much more than an Opry. The show is good for all ages, a variety of music, and styles. This was our first visit and we can't wait to go back. They even have a Comedian.

Posting this review a little late but the experience was very impressionable and wonderful. We were not permitted at the time to take pictures or record (understandable as other people may steal content) but I got a nice photo of the outside and the lovely stage. All of the performers were extremely talented and kind. They really interacted with the audience, it was great! At the end we got to meet the main cast member and she was a lovely sweet lady. I will definitely visit again and see another show. I cannot remember the specific event I attended but it was great. Also they have a food area, the food area could definitely improve a bit. As for the atmosphere the entire building was elegant and clean, as well as spacious. :)

AMAZING! We were expecting a same-ole' show, but wow! We were amazed at the remarkable talent, variety of themes from comedy, to classic, to honoring military and law enforcement and best of all. . .uplifting our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!! Thank you for the BEST SHOW EVER!! We will be back! And thank you allowing the "add on discount price" from our Hatfield and McCoy Dinner Show. We couldn't have come if it weren't for that. You guys made it an awesome vacation!

The Christmas show today for my birthday dec 21st was absolutely amazing...I would be speechless if I wasn’t leaving a detailed review. This was a 2 hour show and worth every penny! It was a combination of great singing, dancing, fog, laser effects, pyrotechnics, bright colors and incorporated a religious ending that touched my heart. I’ve never been to a broadway show and never been interested in going to one but after watching this show today, I absolutely have interest in going. If I had to guess, this would be the closest show to broadway that you could get anywhere close. We loved the CoMedy Barn show the night before and didn’t really expect anything to be much better but it totally was! My eight year old daughter was completely entertained the entire time. Every one of the entertainers did a great job and were very talented. The show was a fantastic combination of not just singing and dancing but also had some really good comedy parts as well. Pricing was $56.99 Adults and $26.99 for kids. They also honor Military discounts. During the intermission, they sell handheld candles that turn on/off in which they use part of the funds to donate to charity such as military personnel and families, children’s hospitals, gatlingburg wildlife relief efforts and some other donations in which overall donations exceeded a couple hundred thousand dollars. The candles were one for $10 or two for $15. This show is a must see even though we have never seen the show that wasn’t Christmas edition, therefor we plan to check it out again after the holidays. I wish I would have taken a lot more photos for you but didn’t think about it during the excitement.

This thrilling park features a variety of zip line tours, including an advanced option for seasoned riders looking to push their limits. Just a short drive from Gatlinburg, it's easily accessible via U.S. 321/441 Spur.
We had the absolute best experience with this establishment! Everyone was super kind and helpful. Our tour guides, Dalton and Mike, made the trip so much fun. They provided safety and lots of humor. I honestly can’t imagine how it could have been any better. I highly recommend!!!!!

If you’re looking for a FUN & beautiful place to zipline…this is it! Our guides made sure we were always safe & the instructions were really easy to follow. They think they are comedians so prepare to laugh at their dad jokes. Also, if you ask for them to take a pic for you…you will end up with a selfie or two (see pics 😆) Highly recommend!!

My Husband and I haven’t zip lined since our honey moon. These guides kept it fun and entertaining the whole time for a group that varied in ages! Safety was clearly a priority, but they made it light hearted and entertaining. My 8 and 11 year old had the best time from the ride up the hill to every designed line.

Best time we had while in pigeon forge. I would recommend to any and everyone to do this. We did the zip line then the side by side and both was a blast. We had the best instructors on both adventures. The only down side i could see that needs to be improved on . Is yaw need pictures or something. It would have been so much better to have something to remember this . Drone ,camera ,videos something.

We were a group of six (4 being teen girls), and we had a blast! Travis and Charlie made us all feel safe and at ease and were fun to hang with for a bit. It was a first for many of us, and if we’re back in town, we’d do it again. Great atmosphere, easy online scheduling, fun location, welcomed as soon as we walked in - great experience overall.
