Cabins Pigeon Forge Visitors Flock To

Fresh air, scenic woods, wildlife outside your window ... it's just hard to imagine a better way to experience the rustic nature of the Smokey Mountains than in the comfort of one of our cute, hillside cabins. Pigeon Forge is the perfect place to get the best of the mountains and still be within reach of city culture and exciting nightlight of Tennessee.

The famous Parkway area is packed with activities for the family: miniature golf, water rides and bumper boats, go-carts, and indoor and outdoor entertainment centers kids will love all line the main drag. If the nature surrounding our Pigeon Forge rental cabins is too "modern" for you, there's always the Dinosaur Walk Museum. Other fascinating area museums include the Elvis Museum, Carbo's Police Museum and the Smokey Mountain Car Museum.

All these Tennessee attractions don't have to break the vacation budget. There are plenty of ways to trim expenses on both essential and non-essential items that will free up more cash for exploring - or the return to reality when the week is up.

• Condos and cabins. Pigeon Forge weekly rentals offer more living space at similar or lower nightly rates than hotels.
• Public transportation. Hotel and street parking fees can add up to far more than the price of a trolley pass.
• Track cell phone use. Out-of-coverage-area and overage charges can rack up quickly.
• Stock up the medicine chest. Everyday items like aspirin, sunblock and deodorant are pricey at airport or tourist shops.
• Take advantage of discounts and free admission days at area attractions.
• Make your Pigeon Forge rental cabins part of the experience. Nestle in and enjoy a mountain sunrise. It's free - and priceless.
