Few things are more distinctly American than spending a day (or the whole weekend) by the pool during the 4th of July! Summer has officially arrived in the Smokies and with daily temperatures climbing into the upper 80s, we can’t think of a better way to cool off than by taking a dip in the awesome pool located at our condos in Pigeon Forge TN. Adults will love hanging out poolside and enjoying their favorite drink, while kids will have hours of built-in fun playing in the pool and on the waterslide.

Now in its 26th year and one of the largest 4th of July events in the area, the annual Patriot Festival is one thing you won’t want to miss out on! Located just a 5 minute walk from the doors of our condos in Pigeon Forge TN, Patriot Park comes to life with live music, local food and more! The fun gets underway at noon beginning with the Kids’ Karnival, and local bands start playing at 1:30 p.m., and continue throughout the day until the fireworks extravaganza at 9:30 p.m. This awesome event is free to the public and all you’ll need to bring is something to sit on!
