Food is among the best in the industry and reasonably priced. Finally, I love the Smoky Mountains so the location is unrivaled. There is a good chance you will meet some of Dolly's relatives while you are in the park.

The live entertainment (if you're into Country/Western or Gospel) is some of the best in the industry. And the food is good and resonably priced. It's definitely worth visiting if you're in the area.
