They do have a large selection of boats (bass, pontoon, runabout), and a good selection of outdoor gear for hunting, fishing, hiking, camping, etc. Some items seemed reasonably priced but many appeared fairly expensive, especially the clothing. It's dark inside for a retail store, making it hard to see the merchandise in some parts of the store. They have a smaller second floor with a balcony view over the lower level. The wildlife display, large fish tank and waterfalls in the middle of the store are very cool. You should expect to be approached by employees trying to sell you vacation packages, which is a little annoying when you're just trying to shop. They weren't very busy during my visit, and only had six customers at the two open registers, but it still took a long time to checkout. It's an interesting store to visit or shop if you're looking for something specific, but I probably wouldn't shop there regularly.

Smoky Mountain Knife Works is probably one of the most insane shops I've ever been to. Prior to…read moremoving to this beautiful state, I came here thinking it was just some knife shop...it's so much more than that! You've never truly been to TN unless you've been inside a three-story shop that sells knives and swords of every kind, guns galore, rocks, fossils, taxidermy, and historical collectors items. I found a few WW2 Germany artifacts here and I knew I was in TN when I could buy a Nazi helmet and a gun at the same time (not that I did nor would desire to, but wow). Browsing their mystical "fossils" was fun, too. As a rock collector, I will say that the rocks were overpriced and honestly, not the greatest collection for clarity. What was priced well were the ninja stars. The staff here are all friendly and helpful, none follow you around which is nice because this store is massive and can easily take over an hour wandering around and browsing. If you're comfortable walking around knowing people are carrying and watching the sell of weapons, this store is pretty cool.

It is a small veteran owned business that has been serving the 11 million annual visitors to the Great Smoky Mountains for the past twenty years. My friend's hiking boots literally fell apart on the mountain so we stopped in to check out what kind of hiking boots they had. Prices seemed reasonable and they had a good selection. A salesperson spent some time talking to my friend and showing her the differences between the boots. In addition to hiking boots they carry anything a day hiker could need or want. They had a large selection of T-shirts, hiking gear including hats, ponchos which I really wish we had brought earlier when we got hit by a sudden rain storm, bug spray, sunblock, water bottles, backpacks, walking sticks, and anything else you could possibly want. If you forgot it, they got it! The Day Hiker is conveniently located a half mile from the entrance of Great Smoky Mountains National Park where some of the best hiking trails in the country await you.
