A great combination of shows and rides. If you are close, a season pass is the best deal You can also arrive after three and next day is included Rides for all ages. Shows included in price. Lots of food options. Shuttle service from car to park.

If you are a Coke fan, this is the place for you. Lots of exhibits and a 4D theater included in ticket price. The best part is the tasting room at the end of the tour. Sample coke products from around the world. Parking on site, but there is a charge.

A Dollywood in the woods. You name it and you can probably find it here. Amusement park with several options based on season--check website. Several lodging choices from camping to Marriott. Hiking trails. Ride or walk to top of Stone Mtn. Biking trails. Historic museums. Weekend laser light show.

Wow! This park was better than we expected. The drive into the park stretches for miles up. Plenty of wildlife available for viewing. We stayed in the park lodge which was rustic and basic. No a/c and small. Limited cell service. Several dining options available in walking distance. Head to the visitor center early to sign up for the tours of the pueblo ruins. Don't be scared away by the safety speeches. We saw all ages and physical abilities on the tours. Some are guided and others are independent. There is also a driving tour that is great.

A must see if you visit this area. One of my kids said that she enjoyed this more than Grand Canyon. Stop at the visitors center on the way in. You can drive or ride shuttle. We opted to drive and had no problems parking in mid-June. There are lots of trails of various levels. The rock formations are unique and the legends that explain them are fascinating. Keep plenty of sunscreen handy. The sun blisters fast. Also, make sure you have food because there are no eating options along the way.
