    Mini tractor track
    Megan P.

    So I will be honest, I was on the fence to spend $278 for 2 adults and 2 kids (3 &7) for what it seemed to be (comparing to Dollywood) but let me tell you, it was worth it! We rode so many things we would never have the opportunity to ride (including a no turn mower, ha!) My youngest is all about excavators (thanks Blippi) and knows more about buckets, dump trucks, and steam rollers than I do and he absolutely loved this place. We never had to wait to ride anything and rode lots more than once. They have a turbo line option (extra and allows you to skip the line but it wasn't needed so I'd recommend driving there, seeing how busy it is and deciding if you want to add it before purchasing. Everything is spaced out and the employees were all very kind and helpful. You can tell that safety is a priority. They ensure you know how to operate each piece (minimal buttons, etc to operate). Small children can lap ride so they can ride pretty much all but a couple. Plenty of parking, restrooms, and a cafe that has basic concession food (and kind of pricey... $10 for an uncrustable...) Nursing room for breast feeding mamas, a gift shop, and little shaded canopy's over some benches throughout. There's even a gem mining station (extra cost) and arcade. Highly recommend. We spent 4 hours there.

    Now that's a tire!

    When you first walk up to the ticket window at Dig N Zone theme park you may think holy makeral! This should be called Dig N Zone "ream" park. Yep, the prices seem to be a little steep, but believe me, the adventure for the little ones is well worth the price of admission. The kids are going to have fun, while us older construction workers will be able to act just like the real workers that we see as we drive by construction sites....standing around watching other people work! Only in this case, we get to watch as our precious new hires drive, dig, roll, and ride their way into countless dreams. We big kids can do many of the activities too, but it's much more fun to watch. Sure, I hopped on a few of the real, true sized, pieces of equipment, but it was always with my young grandkids on my lap. Did I mention dreams? It was a true life dream for me. My six year old grandson operated a real excavator! Digging and dumping all on his own. The confidence he showed climbing onto the machine and strapping himself in, ready for work, he dug circles around me. LoL, I couldn't seem to get the darn thing to do what I wanted it to do! But he had no such issue. He mastered that yellow beast within minutes. About midway through our adventure we ducked under the shaded picnic area. Shade is at a premium at Dig N Zone. There's no shade trees to be had for a quick shadow quench. An umbrella would be a good idea to bring along. We brought our lunch, but you can get a bite at the Cafe. I didn't venture inside because I was told that there wasn't any ice cream. A cone after lunch would have been refreshing. Maybe they'll get around to it. This season being their first in business, I'm sure that there'll be a number of improvements on the horizon. I did hear of expansion plans. New attractions and such. Let's hope ice cream is one of these. The crew running the show are a mix of youngsters and seasoned veterans. All having their own charm and personality quirks. Friendly as all get out, and not a carnie in the bunch. We all have our dark memories of carnies. A sometimes unsavory bunch they can be. But there'll be none of that here. Strictly on the up and up. Bring the family for a fun filled morning. I say morning cause until they get more shade, you'll have more fun when it's a bit cooler. But heck, if those brave souls who actually have to work in the adverse conditions can do it, so shouldn't we all?.....LoL, just not me! Quick Tip: Don't eat before you go on the Decimator. If you know what a Rainbird sprinkler is you know what I mean.

    As parents of toddlers who absolutely love construction equipment (like many others, I'm sure), we were excited to plan a trip to Dig Zone. After checking hours, we saw that during the "winter season," they were only open on certain days. We decided to visit today, a Friday, and paid almost $300 for admission for our family (2 adults and 2 kids). To our disappointment, when we arrived after our 5 hour drive, we found that the park was short-staffed. Several rides were closed, and for others, one staff member was responsible for operating two rides at once. This meant that the lines were incredibly long, as rides could only run one at a time. For example, if you were next in line, you had to wait for the staff member to leave, operate/supervise a different zone, and then come back. While I understand that staffing challenges can happen, we would have appreciated being informed of the situation beforehand so we could make an informed decision about whether to proceed with our visit. Unfortunately, there was no discount or compensation for the inconvenience, and many kids were visibly disappointed. When I inquired about whether being "short-staffed" was typical, I was told that this was due to "winter staffing" and was then told about other places that aren't even open, implying that we should be grateful they were operating. Yikes. In addition to the staffing issues, we also noticed that some rides, like the jeeps, had multiple cars that were out of service due to broken vehicles. I'm sharing this feedback in hopes that future visitors are better informed, and to suggest considering better communication and accommodations to guests when facing staffing or maintenance issues.

    This place is awesome! It is a perfect way for young kids to get up close and experience heavy equipment in a safe and fun way! My personal favorites were the mini gocarts! I enjoyed it as an adult. The park is immaculate. All of the employees were friendly and interacted great with kids-especially Jay on the skid steers! Arcade was fun with an easy to use card to load up for credit and use to redeem for prizes. We got there when they opened on a weekday and had 2 people in the park ahead of us and had no waits for rides until we were heading out (with a less than 5 minute wait on a couple things) after being there for about 2 hours. The gift shop also had some more unique themed gifts that were not ridiculously overpriced. Hands down we thought it was worth it for kids who are into trucks/construction and their first up close experience with the equipment. We spent about 2 hours there and did everything and repeated several things. It seems expensive but after being there I can see why the costs are as they are to maintain the quality of everything and pay all of the employees who keep things clean and reduce any waits! I also enjoyed the historical signs with older construction pieces donated from the Trump family. Really interesting!

    We traveled here from Franklin, TN and we had so much fun. We went for my sons 3rd birthday and it was a hit. It was low key, not an overwhelming theme park experience...but it was very manageable with little kids. Our 3 and 5 year old were just tall enough for most of the rides, there were just a couple they couldn't go on. We would definitely come again, it's a perfect spot to bring your construction loving boys. The only reason I'm giving it 4 star was because the cost was on the higher side. It was $178 for two adults and one child. Plus arcade was separate. It is a new theme park, so perhaps by the time you're reading this the entry price will be lower. However, we understand it cost a lot to turn this place into what it is, and we had a blast. We definitely enjoyed ourselves, but just full disclosure on the cost. Scott and Joesph at the arcade were so cool! They were very professional, fun, and our kids loved them. Having a great staff is so important, and these guys are doing just that. Everyone was super welcoming and kind. We are happy with our experience!

    My kids and us parents had an absolute BLAST!!!! My 2 year old could do everything my four year old could do!! If you're thinking about taking your kiddos, DO IT! Lines were quick never waited over 5 minutes! Everyone was so nice, the worker name Jay offered to take our picture, and was the best worker we've ever meet! He was so sweet and got down on my kids level which means the world to me! I think me and my husband had more fun than my two boys!!

    So perfect. Clean. Fun. Staff super friendly and helpful. Our boys, 4 and 6, had so much fun and learned so much and so did all the adults. What a great idea!!

We parked across the street in their free parking area, which had plenty of available spots at that hour. The walk over was less than a mile and very manageable. Although the weather wasn't ideal--light rain and chilly temperatures--it didn't take away from the experience. We started by walking around and taking everything in. There are so many cute shops, unique stores, and plenty of great photo opportunities throughout the area. We did a little shopping, sampled some food, and purchased tickets to ride the Great Smoky Mountain Wheel, which was a highlight. Before heading out, we made one last stop at Ole Smoky Moonshine, which is always a fun experience. Even though the weather didn't fully cooperate, we still had a great time and really enjoyed our visit. The Island has a fun, lively atmosphere and offers something for everyone--we'd definitely go back!

With that being said, we found it a bit of a tourist trap and pricey, but that was to be expected for the area and kind of place this is.

We did do a stop and tasting at Ole Smoky Tennessee Moonshine, which was unique enough since I am from the west coast visiting, and fun. I still think if you want more authentic tastings and food, to go to downtown Gatlinburg instead (it's all similar enough though). We also did a wine tasting here and all the wines were so sweet for my palette. I did enjoy the shops and pursuing around this beautiful area. A great spot to get some steps in. Many places also offer free samples of food to (like the candy store) so don't be afraid to go in and try.

You can do enough in one day but def a 2 day park or more if you're going to the water park or resort (we haven't done either before). We went for the first time and fell in love. Even if you have little or are elder it's a great park to walk and see stuff at. Get the cinnamon bread, take lots of pics, get the memory pass and ride the rides 10x, see shows, see the eagles, ride the train! You are drenched in water rides so I wouldn't take anything on them. Lots of walking. Bring your own water bottle and/or snacks. Download the app. Get a season pass or park at patriot park and take a trolley to the park.

We've gone two years in a row (2024 and 2025) and even between the years it seems that there is more to offer. Plan to be there all day, especially if you have small children. There is so much for them to do, climb, and explore which is nice so you can enjoy your drink while they play. All the kids areas are secure too so you won't lose them or worry about them falling down the mountain. Our kids LOVE the slide and birdhouse climbing area. There's a stage for live entertainment close by which we really enjoyed. Lots of food options all over however we really enjoy the lookout mountain restaurant and you have to get ice cream for dessert afterwards. Transportation up the mountain is either by their Ridge Rambler (open bus with no windows so dress accordingly) or the skyline with both open and closed cars (runs really slowly and usually a LONG line). I highly recommend purchasing your tickets online in advance because even though that option is available, many do not opt for it and would rather stand in a VERY LONG line to purchase tickets and then get in line for the skyline. If you purchase in advance and opt to ride the bus like we do, wait time is very minimal and you can bypass most of the line which is a huge plus. (also, the waiting area is by 2 private restrooms in case you need to go before boarding). Even though it's busy, everything is so spread out that it's not crowded which is super nice. Plan to take a backpack to carry items as you will stay on the mountain and it's not easy to go back and forth to the car (could but will take time), plus, it's nice to have in case it's chilly and hot later so you can store clothing layers. Currently, Anakeesta is closed until March for remodels and they've shared ideas and things to come which all look like great additions. We can't wait to go again this fall 2026 to enjoy all the new amenities. Highly recommend for all ages!

My daughter was deciding between WonderWorks and Ripley's Aquarium, and honestly, I regret not choosing the aquarium. I expected this place to blow our minds, but it didn't. The attractions feel a bit outdated and could definitely use better maintenance, especially considering the amount of people they get every day. The best part was the laser tag -- everything else was pretty underwhelming. The 4D simulator was only partially working, and the glasses felt cheap. The earthquake experience was disappointing... my car on a straight road moves more than that. Plan to go with plenty of time, because between everything, time flies and you'll easily spend at least three hours inside. If you're thinking about going after 6 pm, I'd recommend leaving it for another day and going earlier.

As soon as we asked, the staff knew exactly how it worked, applied it with no hassle, and knocked a nice chunk off the total. That savings made a big difference for our group and turned an already good deal into a great deal.. Between the amount of stuff included in the ticket, the chance to replay laser tag and rides as much as you want, I honestly don't understand how anyone could rate this less than 5 stars. If you show up early, plan a few hours, and take advantage of the discount, it's one of the best values in Pigeon Forge. Try to plan the trip in the off season as it is nowhere near as crowded as it was doing the summer where it was too crowded to stand in line to get in. Definitely worth my money and something I would do again with my grandchildren.
