Whether you enjoy the indoor pools, onsite arcades, or decide to venture out for entertainment, there are options that will still make your trips memorable since Music Road Resort sits in the heart of Pigeon Forge.

1. Biblical Times Theater

2. The Titanic Museum 

Though we have written about The Titanic Museum in previous blogs, the location less than a mile from Music Road Resort is very enticing, especially on a rainy day! Are you ready to be taken back in time as you receive your boarding pass of an actual Titanic passenger or crew member? During your self-guided tour, you will learn in-depth about these passengers and crew members as you view over four hundred personal and private artifacts from the ship and the passengers themselves. The Titanic Museum Attraction also includes the ability to touch a real iceberg, feel twenty-eight-degree water, walk the hallways of the ship as well as the Grand Staircase, and try to stand on the sloping decks, giving you a real-life experience of what it was like on the RMS Titanic.

Tip! Having a reserved ticket may cut down on your time in line, and if you would rather listen than read, they offer an additional self-guided audio tour. To make reservations, visit www.titanicpigeonforge.com.
