First time visiting The Island. Parking was easy, and it was nice that they provide a tram from the parking lot to the ‘Island’. Many great things for kids and families to do. Loved the selection of stores and eateries. The corn dog I had at Not Just Nachos was the worst corn dog I have ever had in my life! It was stale and soggy. Needless to say, my husband and I enjoyed the water fountains and Ole Smoky Distillery shop as well as Byrd’s cookie store. Fantastic cookies! Will definitely go back to visit Margaritaville!

We enjoyed our trip to the Island. Definitely don’t go here if you don’t want to spend any money shopping. There are so many unique shops that you don’t find too often, so it makes it hard to get away without spending money. That being said, we would definitely go back during our next trip to Pigeon Forge.

The water show at sunset is really beautiful, perfectly in sync with music. They have a lot of chairs around which was really nice. The shops are pretty good to browse but we ate at Paula Deens Kitchen, and it wasn’t worth the hype. It was mediocre at best.

Stayed at the Inn which is slight walking distance to the Island. Great evening walking around the area and visiting shops and eating/drinking establishments. Very pleasant atmosphere and very relaxing. Ended up at Dick's for a cocktail but be warned it is a different adult location, at least in the bar area.

We were in town for a multi-family, long weekend since Gatlinburg/PF is in the middle for most of the families. All of our kids range from 2 to 17 so this little money pit was a great way to spend an afternoon. We got the kids the bracelets as soon as we got there and let them ride the rides as much as they wanted. There is enough stuff to keep everyone busy for a half-day or so but the adults were ready to leave well before the kids. Since we had the bracelets we ended up leaving and then coming back for the night-time experience. All in all, it was a successful visit.

Went to the island with my kids for the first time, they had a blast. They’ve never been on a ropes course before so we had to try it out. Dylan and Matt were very friendly and helpful. They were funny and made my daughter feel so safe about going up there. Definitely would recommend 10/10!

Very fun, but needs more stores targeted towards youth (babies-teens). While there are some, there are very few with not a huge selection. It’s also pretty pricey, while I understand that is the deal for tourist places, it’s still crazy expensive for some things. I do recommend going if you like carnival rides, shopping, and good eats.

My wife and I love Longhorn restaurants; they are consistent in quality wherever we go to one. We love the atmosphere and we love the booths. I love the salmon and brussel sprouts and she loves the Renegade steak or the Parmesan crusted chicken. Really good meals. And, the service is always good, as it was at this restaurant. I would always recommend Longhorn restaurant.

It’s a money trap tourist shopping thing. Ya walk around and ya can buy stuff. My favorite part is you can sit in a chair and watch the fountains and big trashy women whack their kids with flip flops. The people watching will boost your self confidence.

Plenty of things to do. Good combination of rides, shops, and places to eat. We went with a four year old and he loved all of the kids rides. Would highly recommend getting some pizza/wings at the mellow mushroom.
