This offering is located high on Chilhowee mountain like a grandstand from which to enjoy the ever-changing clouds and qualities of light that bathe the Smokies. You may see every sunrise, enjoy blue sky days, starry nights, observe weather systems from miles away, and yet you are less than hour away from the small friendly small towns of Maryville and Alcoa that feature shopping, fine eateries, a four year college with the Clayton Arts Center (where you can see a play or hear musical concerts by famous entertainers), health care facilities, and the Knoxville McGhee Tyson Airport providing major airline service to wherever your business or vacation plans require Less than half a mile away is Look Rock and the Foothills Parkway which is a 33 mile stretch of commercial free scenic roadway from Chilhowee Lake to Wears Valley with many scenic pull-offs. Look Rock is a natural observation ledge overlooking the park. An easy 1/2 mile hike leads to the observation tower which sits at 2,652 feet and provides a spectacular 360-degree panoramic view of the mountains. The Foothills Parkway is not as busy as other roads in the park, so this is a great place to get away from the crowds and traffic, especially during the peak fall leaf color viewing times in October. The quaint village of Townsend on the”Peaceful Side of the Smokies” is nearby, Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Knoxville are less-than-an-hour drive away. Bicyclists are delighted by the Foothills Parkway plus the paved and dirt riding trails nearby in Townsend and Cades Cove. Motorcyclists may never leave as there are rides in every direction including the Parkway, the world famous Tail of the Dragon or Cherohala Skyway. Hikers can take full advantage of being next door to one of the top hiking destinations in the east; the Smoky Mountains National Park with more than 800 miles of hiking trails.
