Enjoy your vacation stay at the Dancing Bear Lodge located on the peaceful side of the Smoky Mountains. During your vacation stay, you’ll want to explore the great Smoky Mountain attractions and beautiful Cades Cove.
The star attractions in this part of the world are Cades Cove and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, home to more than 187,000 acres of forest in Appalachia. Over 9 million people visit the Smokies each year, many of them accessing the mountain range through the community in Townsend. With hundreds of miles of streams, rivers, lakes, wilderness areas, campgrounds, and wildlife habitats, it’s clear to see why this place holds special meaning to so many. If you only have a short time to visit the Smokies, it is recommended that you check out the inspiring views from the park’s highest point in the observation tower at Clingmans Dome (elevation 6,643 feet). On the way, you’re sure to see majestic trees and waterfalls along the winding road. If you can stay with Dancing Bear Lodge for a while, you’ll find many options for filling your days with camping, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, scenic drives, interpretative programs, and more.
About 10 miles from Townsend and on your way to the National Park, you’ll find the valley of Cades Cove. You want to bring your camera to capture the scenic mountain views, well-preserved homesteads, historic churches and graveyards, and roaming black bears. Long isolated by geology, this area is called the Peaceful Side of the Smokies because it offers an ecological alternative to the man-made tourist attractions that dot the hillsides and the roadways of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.
