Although not as glossy as some resorts, DreamMore offers notably warm hospitality, and the grounds are impeccably clean and well manicured. The fun starts in the lobby, where you're greeted by a big-windowed view of the pool. Rooms were constructed with families in mind, with bunk beds typically ensconced in the wall beside the master bed.
After a day in the adjacent theme parks, unwind with a hot-stone massage at the spa while the kids play air hockey in the games room.
Perks include door-to-door transportation to the theme parks and early Saturday entry to Dollywood. Many overnight and theme-park packages are available on the website.
Rooms sell out months in advance for summer weekends, so book early if visiting June through August.
