Best Family Reunion Place in the Smokies
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 9/23/06
As part of the scouting committee to find nice affordabe housing, location to recreational sites, ample parking for buses, and other private owned vehicles, plus a place enjoyable to patrons from age 1 to 70+ years, the MainStay Suites of Pigeon Forge was unbeatable!! The suites were roomy, clean, and greatly satisfied the various "family combos",i.e. parents with infants to seniors with no one to care for but themselves. The continental breakfast allowed 'night hawks' to sleep later while children of age could enjoy a healthy breakfast.
The indoor and outdoor pool with its "lazy river" feature was great and very entaining for all.
However; one of the best kept secrets was the on ground "pavillion" with its own kitchen for grilling to baking cakes; pies. This built-in backyard picnic grounds was the "ICING" on the cake. Imagine. . . a picnic where you do not have to gather the kids and drive all over town. The 'seclued but yet so close' atmosphere makes our next family reunion in the Smokies a guaranteed stay at the MainStay Suites of Pigeon Forge.
