College football doesn’t get any more exciting than Tennessee Volunteers games. If you’re traveling to cheer for the Vols (or a rival!), forget about booking a hotel. Stay in a cabin. You’ll turn a football trip into a family vacation with something for everyone, plus savings for your wallet!
1. Avoid Crowds at Knoxville Hotels
The Volunteers’ Neyland Stadium holds a whopping 101,915 people. For every game, tens of thousands of folks are looking for somewhere to stay in Knoxville, and hotels sell out far in advance of game days. Stay in a cozy cabin down the road for fewer hassles, less noise, and a good night’s sleep.
2. Cabins Save You Money
A Vols home game drives Knoxville hotel rates through the roof. In a Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg cabin, you’ll usually pay less. Share the cost among family or friends to save even more. Save on food, too. A hotel stay means eating out or getting takeout constantly, and that adds up. In a cabin, use the fully equipped kitchen to whip up tasty, inexpensive meals.
3. Everyone Gets Space
Parents and kids often share a hotel room. Imagine adding grandparents, cousins, or family friends to a football trip, and all the juggling you’ll have to do so everyone gets a bed! Cabins provide plenty of bedrooms plus bonus sleeping spaces, living rooms, decks, and more, so your football-loving crew won’t be crammed into a few rooms with zero privacy.
4. Indulge in Luxurious Amenities
Treat the family to delightful amenities like a hot tub, fire pit, game room, or a private indoor pool you can use year-round. Pick a cabin with a movie theater and watch football any time you want, while you kick back in cinema seats. Don’t worry about closing times–these amenities are yours alone, and open 24/7!
5. Enjoy Attractions and Shows
Combine your Vols visit with a day at Dollywood or Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies. Ride go karts and mountain coasters. Immerse yourself in pop culture at selfie-worthy Hollywood Star Cars Museum and Beyond the Lens. Laugh yourselves silly at The Comedy Barn. Watch real lumberjacks compete at Paula Deen’s Lumberjack Feud. The possibilities for fun here are endless!
