The setting is magical. You are in the middle of a huge forest. You have the option to camp among the trees and stay multiple days. There are 9 music stages and the trees look amazing with the multi-colored lights shining on them. Food vendors and artist’s booths are set up everywhere. Tiki torches and fairy lights twinkle around the trapeze arena, people are walking around on stilts and juggling light up bowling pins, all while bubbles float through the crowds. Too neat!

We went on an awesome hike while we were in the town.

I thought this rock would be a perfect spot for a snake to shed under, so I checked in the hole…I found one!

We took Brownie on a 4-wheel drive adventure on a windy dirt road to avoid a HUGE accident on the mountain. We avoided the whole stand still and had a fun adventure.10kansas 11missouri 12illinois13kentucky 14tennessee2 15virginia
