When you plan a trip to the Smoky Mountains, one of the first things on your to-do list is deciding where to stay. Every town in the Smokies has unique characteristics, but when it comes to Sevierville, most visitors are captivated like no other. Sevierville serves up the perfect blend of mountain scenery, convenient access to top attractions, and a cozy local culture while often less crowded than nearby Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Here’s why some travelers prefer to visit Sevierville over other area towns:
A Relaxed Atmosphere With Room to Breathe
