Dude when we stayed here the slide was gone!!!!
Thank you so much! I have a fear of heights and I like to watch videos before I get on things it doesn't look too bad except for those two tight turns but those should be quick
Those pancakes look amazing! Slayy
@@Lpsmoonpaw 🫰🏼🔥
We ride this last night sooo much fun in the dark! 😂
I really glad they have an elevator that goes from the bottom to the top because my dad is in a wheelchair and finding handicap accessible shops and restaurants seems to be difficult in old buildings like this. Can you do a video on wheelchair friendly places in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge? Its hard to find videos about them on TH-cam.
I live in Michigan. I did live in Kentucky back in the 80's but never rode a coaster. I'm most likely going to drive down to pigeon forge and ride this coaster sooner or later. Think the view is the best part. Great video by the way👍👍
How was the mattress comfort? We are thinking of going in January and I’m trying to find hotels that are in the Pigeon Forge valley so that we aren’t driving up any mountains in the snow (my daughter really wants to stay at the Park Vista again but I’m not sure if we could make it up the extremely steep road it’s on in the snow). I’m hesitant to stay at another Hampton Inn because we stayed at one in Ohio and it was possibly the worst most dirtiest hotel we’ve ever stayed at ever. I’ve heard good things about Home2 as well. The biggest thing I’m concerned about with a hotel is if the mattress soft enough.
@@carmendavila272 I loved staying there but I don't remember how the mattress was. I think I liked it. Home2 is always a favorite of ours
Loved the coaster!!
I just went on this😂
About 2 mins up and then about 1.5 mins down. Sorry. Doesn't meet my standard for rides.
I love these kinds of stores, especially the ones in Orlando on International Drive. For me, it's cheap stuff of great memories. There's no need to break the bank for Souvenirs.
Yeah, this is great! I wish I would have saw it before today. Lol. I bypassed bypass Gatlinburg and headed straight to Gatlinburg. Huge mistake. The traffic was terrible. I ended up going on 321 to get back to my cottage. I got to see where the Art & Craft Village was located. I didn't stop to the shops. I was eager to get back. Thanks for the video.
Hes always begging for attention
Brett fireplace doesn't work anymore they make everything look well believe me it's a terrible place to stay at find somewhere else to go
@@LucienOuellette price is the biggest issue for me now
That is such b*******it's all made up for you to make it look very well the place really sucks his rotten he's got bed bugs
Have you ever been to crave in pigeon Forge Tennessee
Yeah. Enjoy the fact that it has the indoor course on the hot or rainy days
@@SmokiesPlus yeah for sure
Are you okay, Bob? We haven't seen an update in a long time. Miss seeing your content.
@@adventureswithrae7053 appreciate that! Yes, we're doing well. Just very busy. Hope to upload soon!
Y'all need to chill. Youre in the Smokies.. during tourist season. People are enjoying. If you're in a rush. Go during off season times. Trust me. I worked in Gatlinburg. It used to upset me to til l realized.. these are people that never get to enjoy nature. Slow down. Enjoy and quit bitching.
@@jimbarnette3698 what's off-season anymore? Anyhow, wasn't complaining. Letting people know what to expect. People were doing what they're asked not to do and it causes issues.
What is the backway to get to cades cove
The Breakfast for us, Did Not include ANY meats ? it was very disappointing.
You are crazy
Prices have changed it’s much more expensive now
@@KayAnderson I know :'(
@@SmokiesPlus me and my husband have stayed there 8 times and just today I was looking to book us a weekend vacation for December in a regular room and it was $386 per night. That is crazy. The Santa suite used to be cheaper than that. I suppose they want us to pay for that new pool which they didn’t need. 😞 will be staying somewhere else from now on and it breaks my heart ❤️
@@KayAnderson I understand. I like to review hotels down there, but it's priced me out of trying most hotels anymore
Reminds me of the Kemah Boardwalk a little here in Texas
Went on this tour last week. If you are near Townsend TN, the tour is worth a visit. The caverns are much more spectacular in real life. Shout out to our tour guide Arlen, seen briefly in this video.
Gatilnburg Tennessee
Not seen you on here in a while, hope everything‘s OK
@@thecrazydisneyparksfanatic921 yep! Just took an extended break. Life in the way. Will eventually post something
@@SmokiesPlus ok, understandable, was just checking
Thank you, thank you, thank you for all your wonderful reviews! My family has made a decision for our October visit. We've stayed at the Hampton Inn Garden Historic Nature Trail on Airport Rd several times and absolutely loved it. We were going to stay at The Greystone Lodge this coming October, but then I watched several of your videos. Just booked our stay at the Courtyard. We are very excited! Thanks again for all your fantastic reviews. 😊
@@kellibug1970 so glad you've enjoyed them
Great review! A little too beachy for me for the mountains. I live pretty close to Panama City Beach. I can always go there. For the mountains, i want a more rustic experience.
Thank you! Just booked for Oct.
hello! are the stairwells 1/2, West/East, North/South, or A/B?
No clue. I'm sorry
I’m a fanatic about a clean hotel room. After the second time I would’ve gotten a refund and moved to another hotel. No excuse for what you pay. Thank you for the review.
This place is a rip off.
Will the trolley take you all the way to the island at peigon forge
What happens if someone decides to come to a complete stop??
@@Antdogg566 You would have to stay aware in case you needed to stop. That's why they tell people never to stop on the tracks. I've ridden mountain coasters over two dozen times and have never had that happen.
Love your videos! I have only been here for a year but love you guys!🩷 Thank you for all you do!
Hiking that trail today.
Was that price just for last year? I'm on their website and I see only 2 rides for $25.
@@josuemelendez5230 yeah must have changed it
Wait a minute…I’ve been on this…what incidents happened here and there?
!!!!
Gooding this week
hi! are the fire exit stairwells 1/2, West/East, North/South, or A/B?
@@SquidwardT-qv2mz I don't know
Great video with your flair of creativity! I'll never forget filming this ride and riding it for my first time with a bunch of TH-camrs who were at the chili cook-off like Adam the Woo, Jacob the Carpetbagger, Yankee in the South, Michael NTL Vlogs, Chris about tshirts, and OVZ. I had my belly full of chili and then got on that ride with them 🤣 Definitely an experience I won't forget lol! I love the effects you used in this video! Hope you're doing well!
@@JoshuaBelton I was jealous when you got to do that. Looked like so much fun!
@@SmokiesPlus Fun and definitely enjoyed my time with them, but I'm also terribly afraid of rats 🤣 so if I knew that aspect of the ride I would've gladly let a better TH-camr such as yourself take my place as I videoed everyone coming out of there like a reporter saying, "ladies and gentlemen how was your ride?" Just like a Dollywood ride attendant 🤣
BRO I SAW YOU THERE WHEN WE WENT THERE OMG I LOVED THAT RIDE!
Rode it yesterday fun as hell 💪🏾
Were you seriously complaining about some hair, omg dude, how petty could you be?
Lol ok
I hope the one that is $25 for one ride is a lot longer.
Rode this several years ago. Having ridden the original one at Universal Studios a couple of times this is wretched.
I i’ve been there before btw it was scary
Love yalls shop
Nice interview here
