Wears Valley is the hidden jewel in the Smoky Mountains. More and more
people discover
Wears Valley each year. Wears Valley sits right in the
middle of Townsend, Cades Cove, Gatlinburg, and Pigeon
Forge.
From your Wears Valley cabin, you may
easily travel to any attraction during the day and then enjoy the beautiful
valley experience in the evenings. There is even a
little known, much less traveled, path to the top side of
Gatlinburg.
Many people just hang out in the Valley during
their stay. Visitors enjoy great craft stores,
restaurants, and hiking trails. You can get so wrapped
up in the beauty, a rocking chair may become your most
popular attraction.
