Travel Note

General Travel Info *Please Read*

**TIPS ABOUT THE AREA** 1. Book your stay ASAP. It is a small area with limited availability. Most cabins request 5-7 day stay. Look at hotel options too. 2. If you are staying within 6 miles of the venue LET US KNOW! Otherwise, arrange carpool plans for the wedding if possible. Parking near the venue is limited. The roads are VERY winding with sharp, sudden turns. Have a DD plan if you will be drinking. 3. NO CELL SERVICE. This is no joke. Set up your GPS BEFORE leaving your lodging. 4. Closest hotels are in Andrews (30 min). However, we suggest Franklin (40 min) if you’re coming via I-40 Westbound, Murphy (40 min) if you’re coming from MS/AL/Chattanooga Airport or Robbinsville (40 min) if you’re coming from Knoxville airport.
