Things to do in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee (TN): The Best Shopping
Set against the misty blue backdrop of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Pigeon Forge, Tennessee is a gateway to 500 thousand acres of Appalachian wilderness. If hiking over 800 miles of mountain trails and camping in dense ancient forests isn't your thing, head over to Dollywood for a different sort of fun. Founded by country queen, Dolly Parton, Dollywood combines rollercoasters, waterslides, and live bluegrass and gospel concerts, with a down home country fair.

The “Dream Knife Package” with Robby at Iron Mountain Metal Works was more than an incredible experience … I cannot say enough about how amazing my time at the forge was. My wife bought me the dream knife package for Christmas. I was surprised when I arrived at the forge and was told the forge was mine for the day. Robby & his staff were extremely helpful and listened to my ideas in designing my knife. This was more than someone just telling me what to do to make a knife - I was taught step by step exactly what to do and why. I gained so much knowledge about the types of metal we were using, each machine used and the entire process. They made sure I toughly understood everything along the way. The entire day was a completely personal experience. I truly ended up with the knife of my dreams – my design, built with my 2 hands. I really enjoyed how they welcomed me in right from the beginning and made me feel like one of the “forge gang”. I now consider them all my friends. I highly recommend Robby, his staff & forge!

We went in because of the free tasting, Steven kept our interest, and totally worked the room, very entertaining and informative. Salted Caramel was what we ended up getting, though the sweet tea was really good as well.

Incredible selection of boots and western wear and an amazingly helpful team of folks. Pam helped my wife find a great pair of boots that she was very happy with- and Wes was able to use their steamer and forms on site to make sure the fit was perfect for her. Huge selection of boots in so many different styles and some really great and friendly people! We really enjoyed our stop inside and we'll be back again whenever we come back into Pigeon Forge from Atlanta.

We bought many things at the store Christmas related, and also a dozen cameral apples, 3 lbs of fudge, and other drinks, and cookies from here to take home to Texas. We have been here many times and usually 2 or three times a year.

Super fun store with a lot of options. There’s a Christmas section, lots of gifts, sweet shop with a lot of homemade fudge and sweets, a small cafe with food to go, a massage area, a small CBD shop, arcade and games and BEARS! You have to pay $3.25 per person to go outside to view the bears but it was worth it. There were 3 bears out today when we went. This place is definitely worth a stop !
