PLACES TO STAY NEAR DOLLYWOOD

Head to Sevierville, Tennessee for convenient, affordable accommodations in the Smokies.

Convenience and affordability put the relaxation in your vacation. The easier it is to get from fun activity to great eatery to comfy accommodations, with less worry about the strain on your wallet, the more you can focus on fun.

Stay in Dolly Parton’s hometown of Sevierville, Tennessee and enjoy easy access to Dollywood at lower prices for overnight lodging than what you’ll typically find elsewhere.
