Great Smoky Mountains Makes Yahoo's Top 10 Fall Color Destinations

We know how great the fall season is here in the Great Smoky Mountains - fabulous weather, stunning color in the leaves and lots to do both outdoors and indoors. Now everyone else gets to know it too! The Great Smoky Mountains have made Yahoo's Top 10 Fall Foliage Destinations list for 2010. And no wonder! We have over 100 species of native trees, including sugar maples, scarlet oaks, sweetgums, and red maples. Our peak color season is October through November, though color starts showing as early as mid-September in some places.

Our many great Smoky Mountain cabin properties are perfect for bases of operation for fun in the fall. Smoky Mountain vacation packages offer easy planning of activities and adventures, from Jet Boat rides and mountain hikes to Whitewater Rafting to old-time train rides.

Located right next to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, our Cherokee NC cabin rentals and Bryson City NC cabin rentals offer great views of fall foliage and easy access to the roads and trails of this gorgeous park.
