  1. It has changed so much up there since my last trip in 2018! I think I love the very top of Ober Gatlinburg after the chairlift. Just the simplicity, the little band and amazing views. Cheers

  2. We have never been but after watching your video we are checking it out when we go this summer. Thanks for sharing!

  3. Really enjoyed this video. We are planning a trip and were thinking about checking this place out and u just sealed the deal for us 🙂 thanks for sharing the prices too.

  4. We drove down there from York PA (near Gettysburg PA) last early Sept . I've been to Sydney Australia and Nelson NZ twice , Hawaii, did the zip lines on Maui, went to Nantucket (old 1700 town ) and Marthas VInyard MA but this place takes the cake! I loved it up there! Its just the coolest place to be and look out over the mountains with sunset and especially when it gets dark with all the lights. Yes, Ive been to see the Grand Canyon, and thats awesome ! but I love this place, I want to go back to see Anakeesta again about 3 weeks before Christmas before it really gets crowded according to videos I watch .

  5. Great video! My family and I went to Anakeesta last year for the first time, and will visit there next month! This time, we will spend more time there! We didn't realize there is so much to do there! Plus, I didn't know that you can see as far as Kentucky on a clear day! I can't wait to go back and visit Anakeesta next month!
