January 24, 2017

Not sure what to pack for your Pigeon Forge getaway? All Season Suites is here to help! We have put together a convenient guide to everything you need to bring for your next vacation in Pigeon Forge.

Bring These Items for Your Road Trip

Most people who visit Pigeon Forge travel by car, since our Smoky Mountain city is just a day’s drive from 60% of the nation’s population. While the majority of your belongings will be packed in the trunk, there are a few items that you will want to keep accessible during your time in the car. We suggest you keep these things handy for your road trip:

GPS or smartphone with Google Maps
Cell phone charger with car adapter
Snacks
Sunglasses
Games, devices, toys, books, or other entertainment for your kids
Paper towels, wet wipes, and trash bags
Jumper cables
Medications/First Aid Kit

Bring These Clothes

Of course, clothing will probably take up the most space in your suitcases. Deciding which outfits to bring on your Pigeon Forge getaway depends on which season you will be visiting in. Here is a quick look at what the weather is like throughout the year in the Smokies:

During the winter months, you can expect average highs in the 50s and lows in the 30s
In the spring, you will typically find highs in the 70s and lows in the 40s
Summer usually brings highs in the 80s and lows in the 50s
The fall months have average highs in the 70s and lows in the 40s

Keep It Casual

Just about everyone in Pigeon Forge wears casual clothes, so there is no need to bring your fanciest dresses or suits. If you plan on visiting a fine dining restaurant, you may want to pack one nice outfit for that evening. For the most part, however, jeans and a T-shirt are perfect.

Dress in Layers

Since the temperature can rise and fall throughout the day (especially during the spring and fall), we recommend dressing in layers. That way, you can take off and put on jackets and sweaters when necessary.

Don’t Overpack

Some people can go a little overboard when they pack for their vacation. When you stay at All Season Suites, you don’t need to bring a ton of clothes, because we have laundry facilities onsite. This way, you can pack half as many clothes and just do one load of laundry during your trip.

Bring These Things for a Hike

No vacation in Pigeon Forge is complete without a visit to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park! The Smokies are America’s most visited national park, and with over 800 miles of trails to explore, it’s easy to see why. If you plan on hiking during your escape, we suggest bringing these items on your adventure:

Hiking boots or comfortable shoes
Water bottles
Snacks
Maps of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Sunscreen
Binoculars
Sunglasses
Compass
First Aid Kit
Flashlight
