Where is Pigeon Forge?

Pigeon Forge is in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains located in Tennessee.  It was named after Isaac Love who built an iron forge  in the early 1800's.  The Cherokee Indians used Pigeon Forge as a hunting ground. Pigeon Forge was incorporated in 1961 and has a population of  approximately 5,900.  In the last ten years, Pigeon Forge has become a vacation hub for visitors all over the world. In some ways, Pigeon Forge is compared to Orlando, Florida.  There are so many attractions to see and so many dinner/shows to go to, it would take you a full two months to see everything on a daily basis.  People sure here are friendly and show off their Southern hospitality.  Great place to visit and rent a cabin overlooking Mt. Le Conte and Bluff Mountain.. Pigeon Forge is only five minutes from the Smoky Mountains, fifty minutes to Knoxville, one hour to Cherokee and two hours to Ashveille. Come on down.
