SPRING in the SMOKIES

We've been telling you how beautiful Spring is in the Smokies.  Now we will show you how you enjoy TWO Spring Seasons in one day!

Take a look at this picture:

If you look carefully, you will see the trees at the bottom are fully leafed out.  But as you go up the mountain, the leaves get a little more sparse - until the trees a the top of the mountain have hardly any leaves on them.

You've got to hit it just right, and this is about the right time.  Here's the secret:  come to Gatlinburg and stay at All Decked Out or Smoky Mountain Tower.  Then take a day to drive through the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.  When you leave Gatlinburg, you'll be in full "Spring."  By the time you get to the top of the Park, you'll likely find "Winter" - or at least trees with few leaves.  Then come back down to Gatlinburg and enjoy "Spring" again!

Remember, you only have a few more days to take advantage of our 15% discount.  Use coupon code BlogFB15 or check our last post for more details.  You can always write for information - dave@SmokiesRentDirect.com.  We hope you will join us to enjoy this beautiful Spring weather!

You are THE BEST!

(You can SAVE MONEY if you read this whole post!)

In our last post, we talked about our April/May availability.  On Facebook, we especially asked you to share our post with your friends.

Well, you did it in a big way!  Usually, we get about 75 to 100 people viewing our posts.  The most we've ever had was 299 - last February, when we talked about snow.

But, with your help, we blew the doors off with the picture of Phyllis and the rhododendrons. 

We had 519 views!

And we actually had a couple of guest book some of our empty dates!  So here is our reward for all of you faithful post readers:  You can book any open dates at Smoky Mountain Tower or All Decked Out between now and June 30 and we'll give you a 15% discount!  Here's how we got to 15%: 

5+1+9=15

When you make your reservation, enter this code:  BlogFB15 (you must enter the code exactly as shown, because coupon codes are case-sensitive).  If you stay a week, this is a better deal than our "7th night free" offer.

Do all your friends a favor and pass this information along to them, too.  All the normal policies apply (minimum of 2 nights, etc.).  But you must hurry, because we all know that blog and Facebook posts get replaced very quickly.  So this deal is only going to be available until the end of April.  Please write us at dave@smokiesrentdirect.com if you have any questions.

THANK YOU - and enjoy Gatlinburg at this beautiful time of year!
