If you like massive crowds of people, inflated prices on everything, traffic that moves at the speed of drying paint, lines that are longer than Godzilla's pecker, then Gatlinburg on the week of the 4th is place for you. Other than that we had fun.

Going to Dollywood next Thursday and Friday. I hate the traffic, but my kids love the rides at Dollywood. I’ll take that place a million times over Disney.

There’s where you went wrong. Go to Townsend and your experience will be in most ways completely different. ^^This.^^ Cosby Tn. isn't a bad place either and I'm almost ok with Cherokee Nc. but not quite. Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge doesn't really have much of an off season. Be glad you didn't go the last week of October or Valentines weekend.

Same here. Don’t care if I ever go back and still can’t figure out why so many people flock that place. I made the mistake of going up there on a 4th July wknd.

buc ee's, is exactly the same way. Never seen so many people and mass chaos as what I saw at the Macon, GA location last week. First and last time I've ever been to one.
If you’re a common sense person, you probably don’t feel you have a home in this world right now. If you’re a Christian, you know you were never meant to.

There's just too many people fighting for limited recreation. Every location only gets worse as more people get tired of going to the "in" place they start spreading to somewhere close but not as touristy and then ruin that place too.
What you do today, you have to sleep with tonight.

Go to the national park. Walk about 3 miles up one of the hiking trails and you won't see anybody. They'll be a thousand people at the trail head, but they ain't getting far from the road
