Gatlinburg for Thanksgiving
 
Hi, <BR> <BR>My fiance and I are planning a weekend trip to Gatlinburg over the Thanksgiving holidays. Can anyone recommend a place for around $80/night in a convenient location? I've looked on the internet, but all I can find are cabins that are rented by the week. <BR> <BR>Thanks, <BR>Michele

Michele, I can't recommend a specific place but you have to plan many, many months in advance to get a cabin in the Smokeys during the holidays. Your only good chance for a cabin is to hopefully find a cancellation. Keep calling or emailing. Finding an opening at a hotel should be much easier - there are so many. I don't stay in hotels when I go, so I can't make any recommendations. Also for cabins, you might get lucky if you try Maggie Valley on the south side of the park. It's not as touristy. Good luck!

Michele, <BR>You need to look at Pigeon Forge. It is the nearest town near Gatlinburg. It has a great selection of hotels. We stayed at a Hampton Inn that was great. There are lots of shows etc. We went over to Gatlinberg during the day. Have fun

Michelle, <BR>I live in the same county as Gatlinburg - I would not go to Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area during the holidys - the automobile traffic will be terrible. <BR>Sorry for the "downer"! <BR> <BR>Alan <BR>
