A Fun-Filled Spring Break at a Gatlinburg Cabin Rental

Escape school and work! Relax and make great memories over spring break in a Gatlinburg cabin. Gatlinburg boasts fun for every interest, from serene nature walks to pulse-pounding roller coasters. Check out these ideas for having a blast around town and inside your comfy cabin.

Dollywood: Opening in March

Dollywood opens in March. Dolly kicks off spring with a songwriting festival and all Dolly’s familiar fun. From kiddie rides to thrill rides, Dollywood’s got all ages covered. Don’t miss the toe-tapping shows, with country, bluegrass, and pop filling the sweet mountain air. 

Wildflower Hikes

Wildflowers bloom by early March in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Watch for yellow violets, jack in the pulpits, and dwarf iris. Nothing says “spring” like colorful blossoms! To spot the wildflowers, hike Porters Creek Trail or Cosby Nature Trail.

Horseback Riding

Explore forest trails the way early settlers did on horseback. Everyone from beginners to experienced riders is welcome at Cades Cove Riding Stables. Watch for spring wildlife as your horse follows your guide through the woods. The stables open in early March and offer carriage rides, hayrides, and trail rides.

Whitewater Rafting

Whitewater rafting season starts in late February, just before spring break. Test yourself with a wild ride on the Pigeon River, or choose a gentler family float. No experience necessary! Gatlinburg rafting vendors include Rafting In the Smokies and Smoky Mountain Outdoors.

Downtown Attractions

You’re close to a massive variety of attractions at a Gatlinburg cabin. Visit 10,000 remarkable sea creatures at Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies. At Hollywood Star Cars Museum, snap selfies with famous TV and film vehicles. Feel chills down your spine when you see real shrunken heads, a vampire killing kit, and more weird wonders at Ripley’s Believe It Or Not Odditorium.

Fun a Your Private Gatlinburg Cabin

Choose a cabin with entertaining amenities, and you might always want to stay. Slip into the soothing hot tub. With an in-cabin movie theater, binge all the films or sports you haven’t had time to watch. For total pampering, get a cabin with a private pool. Learn to shoot pool in the cabin game room, or show the kids you haven’t lost your touch at air hockey!
