Gatlinburg / Smoky Mountains area HoneyMoon Recommendations

Foragers is good but if it were me, I’m taking the extra 3 minutes and driving to Haywood Smokehouse in Dillsboro.

Haven't been to the one in dillsboro and cant get into the one in waynesville until all the tourist leave.

Bens backdraft barbecue is also really good

Get a cabin away from town, and go into the park,
Lots of great flyfishing all around, just look on the map and find blue line streams in the park.

Cades Cove would be a great place to see lots of animals and fish, you may have to hike into a bit to get away from people…

Lots of places aroynd there to get peace and quiet.

I haven’t been there in probably twenty years but the Cataloochee Valley was kind of a hidden part of the Park when I worked there. Then you can hit Maggie Valley and the rest of Haywood CO.

I much prefer to Boone area. Fewer people, great hiking and good food.

Like the others have said, based on what you want, I'd look at other options than Gatlinburg as its zoo. Look into options on the NC side: Maggie Valley, Linville Gorge area, Brevard area, Black Mountain... a few variants of overall experience with varying amenities, all of things you are looking for without feeling like you are in a giant Buccees.
