We just got back from our 6 day stay in Pigeon Forge! I’m really not so much of a mountain girl, I really prefer the beach. But, my husband wanted to do more adventures for this getaway so we drove to Tennessee! We rented a private cabin/house through Evolve and it was perfect for our family of 5! We stayed in the Bear Falls community and it was close to everything!
First up, we went to the island of Pigeon Forge and grabbed a bite at Mellow Mushroom, explore the toy shop, and did the mirror maze. They have great dining, fun, and shops at the island.
If you’re looking for epic fun, head to the Pigeon Forge Snow! It is an indoor snow tubing place that is open year round! Get this, it’s between 60-70 degrees inside so you won’t be too cold while flying down the huge hill! My older girls loves the tubing, while my 3 year old loved the room full of snow!
We also checked out Anakeesta which is about 20-30 mins from Pigeon Forge. It was so beautiful and you should definitely make a day of it if you are looking for amazing photo ops and views!
They have an awesome rail runner scenic coaster that you can control the speed of! For the little ones, you can ride tandem and it certainly was the highly of Anakeesta for the kids! My three year old even loved it!
If you have a rainy day like us, we headed to Top Jump! I was blown away with how awesome this indoor trampoline park was! They have so many different climbing walls and the kids really got to get out of their comfort zones and try them! My husband recently read somewhere that when kids do something they are afraid to do, they grow mentally. I 100 % believe this to be true! After our trip to TN I have seen the kids being more confident, less scared to navigate certain things, and overall seem “older” to me.
I’ll update more of our favorites tomorrow! There are so many fun places to visit in TN and we truly loved them all!
