GATLINBURG: Gatlinburg's original name was White Oak Flats. Gatlinburg was settled in the mid 1800s by Martha Jane Huskey Ogle.  The widow traveled from North Carolina with her seven children and built a cabin that can still be seen on the Arrowmont School of Arts & Crafts' campus right in downtown Gatlinburg, Tennessee.  The town took its late name from Radford Gatlin, a part-time Baptist preacher who arrived in 1854 and worked as the tiny town's post master. He was able to have the name changed to Gatlinburg, but soon departed after a feud with the Ogle family, Gatlinburg's largest clan at the time.

Today Gatlinburg is a picturesque town that is the gateway to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.  Your family will enjoy a wide choice of accommodations and plenty of day and nighttime activities. Up in the mountains above Gatlinburg there's adventure, inspiration, romance and memories to last a lifetime.
