You may think that Tennessee doesn’t have a gazillion and a half amusement parks. Which, well…we don’t. BUT don’t lose heart, you red blooded adrenaline junkies. We have three freakin’ fantastic spots for you to get your scream on.
- Ober Gatlinburg - Gatlinburg

- Lake Winnepesaukah - Chattanooga

It’s a fun roller coaster world and waterpark that keep kids dying for more. Plus, adults love the quirky, down home atmosphere.
- Dollywood - Pigeon Forge

Dollywood is a magical place where childhood comes to be born again, giving east Tennessee an absolute edge when it comes to rides that will make you scream and parades that feature - you guessed it - Dolly herself.
If you could go to any single one you wanted, where would you go? Any suggestions for out-of-towners? Let us know in the comments below!
