It’s officially the season of hot apple cider, warm blankets, and pumpkin patches. It’s also the season for fall festivals, and the Smoky Mountain area is full of them!

Here are three festivals you can enjoy while on your Smoky Mountain vacation.

1. Dollywood Harvest Festival

If you love Dollywood and the fall season then you won’t want to miss this event! From early September to late October this annual celebration marks the best weather and some beautiful fall foliage in the Smokies. Stay late into the evening to see beautifully carved pumpkins, lit up and on display. During the day you’ll enjoy fall themed food, and colorful leaves all throughout the park.

2. Gatlinburg Craftsmen’s Fair

In early to mid October the Gatlinburg Craftsmen’s Fair heads into full swing. Artisans from across the country gather to peddle their wares while musicians serenade the crowds. You’ll see everything from woodworking and pottery to handcrafted jewelry and leatherworkings. If you have an appreciation for handmade goods then this event is for you.

3. Wears Valley Fall Festival

The Wears Valley Fall Festival takes place in mid October and is a favorite event for locals. Come experience the hundreds of vendors, melodic live music, and incredible Southern cuisine. If you’re interested in a true rustic, Appalachian festival with plenty to do and see for the whole family, then this one is for you.

No matter the festival you choose you’ll need a place to stay. Choose from one of our many options at Bear Camp Cabin Rentals today!

It sounds so brutally simple. Yet that is the essence of the more than 90 ground-pounding, fire-breathing examples of American automotive culture to be found at Floyd Garrett’s Muscle Car Museum! Having opened April 26, 1996 and located in the beautiful Smoky Mountain town of Sevierville, Tennessee the museum represents the dream of one man – Floyd Garrett

Floyd hails from Fernandina Beach Florida, where he built a highly successful trucking company by hauling wood chips from local lumberyards to the paper mills in the area. After becoming financially secure, he began finding and buying the vintage muscle cars he remembered from his youth – focusing on the rare and unusual. His collection began in 1975 with a black 1970 Chevelle and has grown since.

The 50′s, 60′s and 70′s were a unique time in the American automobile industry … the golden era of the “muscle car”. Experience one of the largest, and most incredible collection of American Muscle Cars in the nation.
