We visited Dollywood today and paid a fortune for a family of four. The lines to purchase tickets and then get into the park were confusing and chaotic. Family waited in very long lines only to be told sorry you have to leave this ride is broken. Ate at a terrible food buffet that was very pricey. After the continual...

Owner description:
The 2010 Applause Award winner, Dollywood is recognized as one of the world’s best theme parks. Spanning 150 acres and located in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, Dollywood offers more than 40 rides and attractions, including the Thunderhead wooden coaster, the steel thriller Mystery Mine and Wild Eagle, the first wing coaster in the U.S. Dollywood’s entertainment is recognized worldwide, having received more trophies, 20, than any other theme park for its live entertainment which showcases country, bluegrass, Southern gospel, classic rock ‘n’ roll and Appalachian music. Daily demonstrations by more than a dozen master craftsmen offer a glimpse into the authentic artistry of the area’s rich heritage. Guests visiting the Great Smoky Mountains can stay just a stone’s throw away from Dollywood and Dollywood’s Splash Country at Dollywood Cabins. Accommodations range from quaint spaces just for two to sprawling floor plans that sleep up to 30 people. Guests are treated to sweeping mountain views while some cabins actually overlook Dolllywood’s popular Craftsman’s Valley area. Cabin guests receive exclusives such as free reserved parking at Dollywood and Dollywood’s Splash Country and complimentary admission to Dollywood’s Splash Country.

Make sure that you plan on doing this more than 1 day because if you try and do it all ti will take 3 or 4 days to do everything and to see every show, but it is worth it. You also need to go to all the events through out the year.

Fun, fun, fun. We went during the Festival of Nations and had a great time. The food is good and the kids had a great time. Something for everyone. Very clean and the staff was very nice.

We are Dollywood frequent visitors and we love it! Lots to do and lots to see. Nice people. However, recently we miss two things. We miss the Sh-kan-o-hey show, the replacement just doesn't measure up. Love the singing but miss the acts. Love the new "My People" show.
Also want our Backstage Restaurant Meal back, can't stand this buffet stuff...

For first time visitors, we were amazed at how big Dollywood was. We rented mobility scooters and we were off to discover all the fun things to do. Lots of "shows" to see, plenty of food vendors and shopping. A ride on the "Dollywood Express" train made it easier to see a lot before venturing out on our own. A...

Great for all ages. My daughter and son loved it. We will return our next trip to Smoky Mountains! Suggest going in Spring or Fall for cooler weather.

They are adding bigger thrill rides every year, and the wait times are not nearly as ridiculous as larger parks. Almost everyone on staff is friendly. We upgraded to season passes before we left!

We went to Dollywood with a large group with varying age children and adults. There was definitely something to do and see for everyone. We were there for 8 hours and were not able to do everything we wanted to do. We will be going back before the end of the year. The park is beautiful with natural landscaping.

A fantastic family fun amusement park. There is not a dull moment or anything that would be disappointing. The rollercoasters are great, the kiddie area is fun even for adults, and the waterpark is a MUST if its a hot and humid day. The price is reasonable for all the fun your family will have!
