It’s a good park to visit at least once. It caters to very young kids, teenagers, and old folks as well. There are water rides and thrill rides. It overall has more of the flavor of a county fair, except a couple of the coasters are definitely world class. They’ve upgraded since we were last there (maybe 5 yrs?) so my info is a little dated, but I’m sure the upgrades are quite good.

If you like country music, especially older country music, this park is a must do. They have shows, live outdoor music, etc. Food is pretty good and not too expensive. Less costly than Disney by a lot.

We always drive down and back in a day so I can’t speak as to the hotels. But nothing is really all that far away. Pancake houses are a thing in Pigeon Forge so make sure to hit one before you leave.

If you decide to go, check out the park map, and then hit me up with any questions you might have about the attractions or anything that you’re curious about.
