Once we got to the entrance, we had to pay for full admission price, even at 4pm. Thats probably the one thing I have to hate on Dollywood for: no twilight hours discount. However, the nearly $50 admission was well worth it, even for the few hours we had in the park.
I don't know if you know this or not but you could have gotten in the next day FREE!
Dollywood has a "Arrive after three next day free" program. All you have to do is purchase a ticket and not go through the turnstile until after three. You do not have to have any type of special ticket that says "Arrive after three next day free." All you do is make sure your ticket is run through after 3 p.m. and it will some how put a note on the tickets barcode and then when you come back the next operating day you can use the same ticket to get in the park for the entire day.
That is why Dollywood doesn't have "twilight hours discount." At Dollywood you can get a entire day plus several extra hours for the price of just one day. If you were to go during their Smoky Mountain Christmas festival you could take advantage of "Arrive after 6 p.m. and wrap up the next day free." Which gives you three hours the night of purchase then the entire next day, for the same price.

Amazing pictures, especially of the castle. It looks spectacular!

I just ride what ever I want to. If I get a credit that's fine if I don't, I don't. If I'm at a new park I will first ride everything I want to then if there is time left I may do the pointless ones but I only would do that if I had plenty of time and they had no wait. Even at parks like Dollywood which I'm at all the time I really have no credits on rides that I didn't actually want to ride, I haven't rode any of the smaller kid rides just to get credits (except tea cups but that was with my little cousins).

I want to get to some parks after our season ends here and was looking at SDC & Dollywoods websites and they are open through December, but it doesnt say when their coasters close. Anyone have any idea?
All of Dollywood's water rides will be closed. All of there roller coasters will be running but roller coasters and Timber Tower will close when temperatures drop below 40 degrees for safety reasons. Blazing Fury however stays open since it is a indoor coaster.

I have seen the photo of that man a TON of times and I have never even noticed that the speech bubble is not coming from his mouth. Great pictures!

Great photo TR and nice pictures of the Mountain sidewinder. Does anyone know who built the Sidewinder or did they build it themselves?
Again thanks for the TR!
I don't know who built the Mountain Slidewinder itself but Dollywood makes all the boats for it.

Sweet tea is great. Soda wise Mountain Dew or most any Pepsi products, Diet Coke, Dr. Pepper.
Least favorite soda: most Coke products.

I'm a non smoker. And I agree with several people above smoking in public places should definitely be banned.

No (I have contacts)
Do you know someone who's blind?

The best thing to do if you don't want a local or favorite small waterpark to close is to go visit it, eat there, by souvenirs, tell your friends and family how great it is and go back to it often.

Great report and wonderful photos, glad to hear you had a good time at Dollywood.
I've read all of your reviews and they have been great. Hope that you post more!

In my opinion:
It's sad to see any type of theme park or water park go but it's really just a sign of the time (not to sound like ABC news there but it is). Larger company's know how the business works and operates very well and has the money to do so. Thus water parks that aren't included with theme parks or are not owned by chains are going because they may not have the experience, money to invest, etc.
