Lodging & Transport
We don’t have any hotel blocks but do have a few recommendations based on location and price!
If you are interested in AirBnbs, we recommend downtown, North Knoxville, Parkridge, or South Knoxville close to Old Sevier. Buses run regularly down N Broadway and Central Ave to downtown. Feel free to send any to us for our input on the location.
We structured the weekend so you do not need a rental car if you don’t want one. Your most expensive transportation will be from their airport to your hotel or AirBnB, we have paid anywhere from $25-$60. Once in town you can get by on foot, bus and uber! Ubers in town are typically $10, and the bus is $1/ride or $2/day. Download the app or bring exact change.
