We just did that route. We stayed at the Clabough Family Campground in Sevierville/Pigeon Forge. Nice campground. It's the only campground I've ever stayed at where the reviews talked more about the great restaurant there than the camping accomodations! Wish I had been able to sample it, but it was closed when we arrived and we were busy the following day.

We ended up going I-40 to I-75 then through Chattanooga and Atlanta until Cordele where we picked up RT-300. 300 turns into 19 and we're home. We really like the coastal route on 19 compared to I-75. I-75 gets my vote as one of the country's most dangerous roads.

If you get a chance to stop in, were in Spring Hill at 352-666-0444

Safe Travels!

We have to use the mh. every two weeks or we get bored. Hate to stay at home ever since my buddy died can't get it out of my head .Just got back from Captieva island . Don't go there no beach one campground it is nice but nothing to do .

We were looking forward to camp a night or two with both of you and exercise our little Barth but we have to work . But if you are looking for a very interesting place to visit, go to the Museum of Appalachia in Norris TN. I-75 exit 122. Just 1/4 mi of the Interstate and a big gravel parking lot. A wonderful museum, not stiff and dusty, it tells real life stories of people here. I think there is a campground nearby but never tried it.
You are doing the right thing, travel and enjoy while you can. So many folks wait for that "special" time and it never comes.

thanks marv I will look into it ,see you in December.WE ARE GOING TO DOLLYWORLD GATLINBURG ARRIVING IN PIGON FORDGE ON THR 15TH STAYING FOR A WEEK. JUDYS BIRTHDAY IS ON THE 17TH my brother might be coming in,he lives in Johnson city.
