A Guide To Help Start Your Smoky Mountain Vacation.

Wednesday, July 31, 2013


Have you been to Shagbark in the Smoky Mountains? Just off of Walden's Creek and between Wear's Valley and Pigeon Forge? Have you even heard of it? Probably not, and it's this reason that Summit Cabin Rentals has chosen the area to house many of its houses in the Smoky Mountains.

Shagbark is a heavily forested and isolated area of the Tennessee Smokies just 10-12 minutes from downtown Pigeon Forge, making it the perfect place to enjoy the purest solitudes and environments of the mountains. All the seasons of the year come to your doorstep and flow all around our houses at Summit Cabin Rentals. They feature 1-6 bedroom cabins, loaded with luxury amenities from top to bottom, swimming pool access, hot tubs, jacuzzis, game rooms, heavy discounts throughout the year - everything you need to make an incredible getaway to the Smoky Mountains!

Reserve a cabin with them today at www.summitcabinrentals.com.

The summer's still on in the Smokies! Here are some awesome suggestions for getting the most out of the vacation season.

* Gatlinburg Craftsmen's Fair *

This Gatlinburg expo is so big that the city holds it every season. During Spring, Summer, Fall and Thanksgiving, the W.L. Mills auditorium hosts a huge showcase where over 100 artists and artisans from around the Eastern side of the country get to show off their skills and wares. What to expect? It'd be easier to list the things you probably WON'T find there: cars and car parts, medical lab supplies, DIY zeppelin kits, anti-gravity lawn furniture, drums of plutonium, used cores of the sun... anything else you can think of will be there, complete with live entertainment!

This event is going on from July 19th to the 28th for 2013 and you can see more on this at www.craftsmenfair.com.


* Murder Mystery Dinner Show *

How many times have you ever been to a show where you where literally part of the set and atmosphere of the plot? If never, come on out to Pigeon Forge's Murder Mystery Dinner Show and watch the madness unfold not just in front of you, but ALL AROUND you too! If you're really looking for something different, here it is! http://www.murder-mystery-theater.com/

* GSM Outfitters *

For all the hype there is to talk about enjoying the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, we really don't have much in the way of getting hikers and tubers prepped, especially not out in Wears Valley. GSM Outfitters, the newest store in the community, remedies with this with everything you need with all your favorite brands there. Check them out at http://gsmoutfitters.com/.
