Cades Cove
Cade's Cove is a broad, verdant valley surrounded by mountains and is one of the most popular destinations in the Great Smoky Mountains. It offers some of the best opportunities for wildlife viewing in the park. Large numbers of white-tailed deer are frequently seen, and sightings of black bear, coyote, ground hog, turkey, raccoon, skunk, and other animals are possible but never guaranteed. On this amazing and breathtaking tour you will learn a lot about this once thriving community and its people. Learn its history straight from the horses mouth with video commentary from those who lived here and/or their descendants. You will be guided by an East Tennessee local who is very knowledgeable about the mountains of East Tennessee. Your guide not only welcomes questions, he/she suggests it. The more you ask the better your experience will be. Come join us on a bus ride though the amazing and wonderful Cade's Cove. This tour begins at the Shops of Pigeon Forge. From here we head through scenic Wears Valley and Townsend. Once we arrive at the start of the loop you will be offered a chance for a restroom break. Once the loop begins get your camera ready because wildlife can be around any corner. If you spot it let your guide know and he/she will attempt to pull over to get good photos when possible. The valley has a rich history. For hundreds of years Cherokee Indians hunted in Cade's Cove but archaeologists have found no evidence of major settlements. The first Europeans settled in the cove sometime around 1818. By 1830 the population of the area had already swelled to 271. Cade's Cove offers the widest variety of historic buildings of any area in the national park. Scattered along the loop road are three churches, a working grist mill, barns, log houses, and many other faithfully restored eighteenth and nineteenth century structures. Pick up the booklet available at the entrance to the loop road for information about the buildings you'll see in the cove and the people who lived here. We often try to make stops at some of the more popular buildings but this will be based on parking availability at the time. This area has lots of photo opportunities and exploration inside some very old and historic structures including one of the last working grist mills. After a 45 minute break at the half way point we continue our journey around the loop until we reach the end where you are offered another restroom break before we head back to Pigeon Forge to end the tour.

Ya know, I kinda see why a lot of businesses copy and paste a "thanks for giving us a review" message on their responses ... me, I hand write (type) each and every response with my own words based on the review given. It gets a bit tiring after 30 or so, not gonna lie, but its worth the effort because we really do appreciate your review and your patronage. Thank you for taking time out of your day to tell the world how awesome we are. This is us telling the wrld how awesome you are. I made that typo there, I said wrld and i meant world but I am so tired I dont really wana correct it but in hindsight it was likely easier to correct it than to type all this but at least I didn't have to hit backspace. Aww man I didn't put a ' thingy in that don't up there, im not fixing that either. Dang it I did it again with the I'm. Anyhow, thanks for the kind words about Matt and for highly recommending our tour to others. Do you think i'll ever get as famous as @Wendy's for me witty responses and playful banter? Make me famous! P.S. I said I had write and i meant hand write so I had to edit it and fix that cause it just totally didn't make sense saying had. I also forgot to capitalize that I up yonder, do you see it? Its like where's Waldo but your looking for a tiny I instead of a fella in a stripped shirt.
