Sevierville is a small town about 15 miles north of the entrance to Great Smoky Mountain Natl Park. As GSMNP is one of the most popular national parks in the country, Sevierville, along with neighboring towns of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, have become a giant tourist destination. There are so many attractions, restaurants, shops, and other venues that it literally fun for everyone. And the number one spirit here is Moonshine! For us, it is the park that draws us here each of the last three years. The mountain views are gorgeous. We like the area so much that we are seriously thinking that the Knoxville area is the place we want to retire to.
