Combining the natural beauty elements of the Tennessee River and the Great Smoky Mountains, an historic Old City sector, and the vibrancy of the University of Tennessee, Knoxville is a fantastic vacation city with many outdoor, sports, and historical activities. History buffs gravitate to Knoxville for its 20 museums and seven historical houses.

Consider staying in a spacious vacation rental instead of a small hotel room. Whether you want to stay in a residential area, near the University of Tennessee, overlooking the river or other prime locations, you’ll have a wide range of properties available for rental. The line-up includes amenity-loaded log cabins with wood burning fireplaces, and hot tubs, luxurious multi-bedroom homes with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and wraparound porches, and quaint cottages set in pristine, forested areas.

To get spectacular views of Knoxville, the 266-foot, 26-story high Sunsphere features an observation deck on the fourth floor of the huge ball.

For a wide array of outdoor activities, visit Smoky Mountain National Park, which is located within 45 minutes of Knoxville. Basketball fanatics should visit the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame, where you’ll find all kinds of memorabilia, trophies, and interactive skills challenges on three different courts.

How would you like your children to see a rare Red Panda? They can at the 53-acre Knoxville Zoo, which is known as the “Red Panda Capital of the World”.

For excellent dining, shopping, and entertainment, head to the Market Square District, which has unique shops and restaurants, a movie theater, and live musical entertainment on the first Friday of every month.

Staying in a vacation rental will reward your family with extra closet space to store luggage and sports equipment, spacious living areas so you can spread out and relax, and dining areas where you can spend quality time together talking about the day’s activities. Better still, the fully equipped kitchen in your vacation rental allows you to prepare sumptuous, money saving snacks and meals and bypass pricey restaurants.
