Spoke with Linda at Pine Mountain again yesterday to clarify a few things some of you had mentioned or asked about.
@PaHunter , I inquired again with them about your parking options. They strongly suggested you get a creekside site as they are the longest. Also, they have parking available for Old Yeller up front and you will not be charged for the parking.
@tigger92662 had mentioned that they charged an extra $10 a night for their trailer and apparently that is true, but the charge does not apply to tow vehicles so she assured me you would not have to pay extra for parking.
@FtW Mike , they do not offer a dog park where Sky can run free there. The only RV location I found that had a dedicated dog park was River Plantation RV park back near the northern edge of Sevierville. Everyone else was pet friendly, but by leash only.
@friendofeeyore , I did inquire about the cabins located at Pine Mountain. There are two available, however, they are not pet friendly from what Linda was telling me.
There is a 10% discount on sites if you are first responder or military.
Trolley pickup is available across the street. I attached a PDF down below of trolley route for Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Pine Mountain is located on the South Route which is brown. Also, here is the link to the trolley information site.

There is a Mainstay Suites located across the street and the campground has an agreement with them that the folks staying at the campground have access to the pool offered at the hotel.
They do not offer a group discount or booking. It will have to be done on an individual basis. The opening for booking is 6 months from the planned departure date.
The focus to this point has seemed to be Pine Mountain mainly because of location and there are several of you who have experience there. I personally have not stayed there, but I know from MANY trips there that the location is very good for a group that will be interested in different things. This is not set in stone however, so I welcome other input on resorts if you have any.
