Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge Area

DH and I are going to be staying in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area for 2 nights towards the end of June.  I'm starting to look at hotels.  Does anyone recommend any hotels in the Gatlinburg area?  We're not wanting to spend a fortune on hotels, but definitely don't want the dirt cheap hotels either.

With that being said - is there anything we HAVE To do while down there?  We'll only have about 1 1/2 days in Gatlinburg most likely.

Before we get to Gatlinburg, we'll be staying in Robbinsville, NC (1 - 1 1/2 hours south I believe), and we'll be with a bunch of his friends.  We're taking the motorcycles down and going to be spending most of the days (Saturday-Tuesday) riding the bikes.

  • Thanks! Is there anything to do near Robbinsville? I've been starting to look online, and all I'm really seeing is scenic drives, etc. Which, by all means, is fine with me - I love the views of mountains and will be taking TONS of pictures :-)

  • Unfortunately not much in Robbinsville.  I'm not familiar with the town specifically, so there may be good places to hike.  It's probably an hour or so from Bryson City where you can go white water rafting down the Nantahala River.  We've d

  • Definitely look into cabin rentals. We rented from a company called  Timber Top and they let us check in early and the cabin was so clean and lovely. Cabins there are very affordable and you get the extra perks of your own hot tub, kitchen, porch, et
