Try the Roaring Fork Motor Trail .
It is free and magnificent.
Cades Cove is a must see.
Clingmans Dome is a real trip as well.
All free and open this time of year.

Just a thought here...If you folk's could do Cherohala today ( Saturday ) and meet us in Knoxville , TN tomorrow morning ( Sunday ) I could take us a much better scenic way to the treehouse. That way you won't have to wait around on the fog/clouds to clear on Cherohala Skyline in the morning you could just come through The Dragon and stay on 129 into Knoxville.Early morning or late evening will give you the best ride through The Dragon with two Harley rally's in the hood this weekend The Dragon will be packed thoughout the day with SLOOOOW traffic.

Hey Bradvalk,
Just a thought, if on your bike, I would avoid Cades Cove like the seven year itch. While it is beautiful, the a**holes in cages make this a miserable drive on a bike. Even though there are signs all over the place saying no stopping in road, they keep doing it. When my wife and I did Cades Coves on our bike, it ended up being awful because it was drive 2mph, stop so someone could take a picture of a squirrel or something, start, stop so someone else could look at a deer 1/2 mile away. After a while, we almost came to blows with someone in front of use who kept doing this. It took us hours to get through this and I swore never again.....
