I'm considering spending a week visiting the Smoky Mountains for our family vacation, most likely in August. Can anyone give advice on things to see & do in and around the national park?
Right now I don't have too much to start with, I just see that it's a huge park and I imagine there are lots of the little mountain streams that I love. I've seen the Appalachian Mountains of PA, and I imagine it's different enough down there to be something new and interesting. I plan to look at some visitors guides or maybe the GSMNP website
Trout fishing is just one of several things for me consider. I also have to think about other things to do together with my wife and our two year old daughter, like site seeing, entertainment, etc. My wife is not a big outdoors lover, so we might consider a resort with cabins as a compromise and for more things to do near the house instead of a cabin in the middle of the woods.
Any help from those who've been there or anyone else would be great! Thanks.
