Oh, how we have been looking forward to the Harvest Season! Cooler temperatures, an air of dignity (literally, as you breathe in, the air just gives a taste that makes the atmosphere feel more reverent and majestic without being too much - you'll understand it when you get here), Hay Rides and, saving the best reason for last, the colors of the mountains as they change here during the Harvest Festival.
From our views here on Highlands Condos, it's not crazy to think you might stand outside on our balconies and snap pictures for 10 full minutes or more - looking for perfect angles, dents and hillsides. The views themselves will be no contention as you can literally see out for miles of Smoky Mountain color and see the might of the mountains in full bloom. Suddenly it becomes clear how a culture like our great ancestors could've stayed stubbornly in place during the harsh years of generations before.
That's what the Harvest Festival is all about - celebrating the cultures that were our foundation and the mountains that built that foundation. There are several great places to capitalize that on here in the Smokies -
- The Old Mill in Pigeon Forge.
- Dollywood, which holds a Harvest Festival event month-long every October.
- Cades Cove out in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
- The Arts and Crafts Community of Gatlinburg.
- The Hay Rides of Gatlinburg (Sept 15th to Oct 31st).
If that doesn't give you the spirit of the Smokies in a gorgeous Autumn setting, nothing will. If it does, boy are you in luck, as they are relatively easy to get to from Highlands (although Cades Cove is a good 34-40 miles away, it's well worth the trip) and you can take many chances to explore the cultures with our 4 Night Special which we have listed here:
