Family Ski Reunion in Gatlinburg

Author: Joyce Mccall

One of our family's favorite winter activities is skiing. Since we have family located in Virginia, West Virginia, and West Tennessee, the city of Gatlinburg in the eastern region of Tennessee serves as a perfect spot for us to meet once a year for our annual family reunion. We usually schedule this event during the winter months in order to take advantage of the ideal skiing opportunities at Ober Gatlinburg. This resort is convenient to all of the activities that Gatlinburg has to offer. It is a great place for beginning skiers and children too.

The Ober Gatlinburg resort offers bunny slopes, snowboarding, snow tubing, and slopes for more advanced skiers. However, the prices for ski rentals seem to be a bit higher at this resort in comparison with other ski resorts we have visited. Therefore, we usually pack our own equipment. I will generally tackle the task of tying all of our skis to the roof of our SUV, while my husband tidies up the house and sets our home security alarm from
Security Choice for added assurance and peace of mind. After everything is prepared, our family is ready to meet all of our extended relatives for our annual Gatlinburg ski reunion.
