Nestled in the breathtaking Smoky Mountains, Gatlinburg is filled with nature, culture and entertainment–and in spring, Gatlinburg is at its beautiful best! You’ll get more choice of affordable cabin rentals. Fewer tourists. Delicious weather. See why this mountain town is the perfect spring getaway.
1. Booking early gives you the widest selection of cabins.
Colonial Properties Cabin and Resort Rentals has more than 175 cabins and condos in its always expanding inventory–one of them will be just right for you and your family this spring. Want lots of bedrooms? A waterside location? A movie room? A gourmet kitchen? We’ve got them all.
2. Reserving a cabin at a great price is easier in spring.
Since spring is off-season, you’ll save dough on your rental. That’s money you could spend on tickets to Gatlinburg’s world-class aquarium, the unique Space Needle, moonshine tastings….You get the picture!
3. Gatlinburg is less crowded.
There’s no escaping it: Gatlinburg gets busy in summer and fall as visitors descend for summer vacations and fall leaf-peeping. To avoid crowds and traffic, book a spring stay. The 70-degree days are delightful, the mountains burst with blooms, and you can get tickets to attractions and shows easily.
4. Spring is when the mountains come to life.
Shake off the winter blahs by getting out into nature. Whether you’re an experienced climber, or you just want an easy amble through the woods, there’s a trail here for you. Animals are especially active in spring. Chances are good that you’ll spot deer, turkeys, foxes, coyotes, and the mountains’ iconic mascots–black bears.
5. Great Smoky Mountains National Park is more accessible.
Roads and hiking trails that were closed in winter reopen, giving you easy access to the park’s most famous and beautiful drives and hikes. Park visitor center hours, shortened in winter, get extended, and historic sites reopen after winter closures.
6. Dollywood reopens, ready to entertain you like nowhere else can.
The beloved theme park hunkers down in winter, then flings open the gates in March! Enjoy Dollywood’s spruced-up rides, tempting new menus, and fresh talent on stage. The season starts with the colorful Flower and Food Festival and the I Will Always Love You Music Festival. Bonus: Splash Country water park, Dollywood’s sister park, opens in May!
