Smokies TN spring bookings

[Wilson Hunter]

For my Gatlinburg / Pigeon Forge cabin - January and February ultimately had similar numbers as last year, but at times it looked bleak. A lot of bookings were last minute (several same-day arrival). Now my spring is also feeling slim compared to last year, but I’m trying to stay the course and be prepared for last minute bookings to fill the calendar. I recall some Dollywood opening-induced weekday activity that hasn’t hit yet for me.

Have others had a similar experience? 

Sidenote my Outer Banks rental is crushing which has caused me to shift my focus a bit from cabin to beach for the next investment, based on current market prices.
