I wnet to the one in Las Vegas last month. It had all kinds of stuff!!! However, it was all Disneyland, no WDW stuff. At first, I was "Why is this all Disneyland???". Then I remembered where I was - duh!
I'm hoping to make it back to Pigeon Forge in the next year or so. Hope the one there is still open then!
I'm not exactly sure as I have only read about it here. I think it's at the Tanger outlet on the north side of town. There are so many outlets there it's hard to keep them straight!
If you're looking for house type stuff, there was a place between PF and Sevierville on the main drag right near the Smoky Mountain Knife Works. Don't remember the name right off but it was Home something. It's a big place w/ all kinds of home stuff - furniture, bedding, floral, candles, pictures, you name it. If you're looking for quilts, there was this little shop in Gatlinburg acrsoss from the aquarium called the Lemon Tree or soemthing liek that. Beautiful quilts at good prices. Also, if you like Thomas kinkade, be sure to check out the Gallery in the village there in Gatlinburg, even if it's just to look. I did not buy anything, but I loved looking at the paintings under the low lights to see them "glow". There's also all kinds of little shops in that area, a neat place.
There are actually two outlet shopping centers and I think that it is in the one with Tanger. My husband and I usually go to Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge every Thanksgiving to celebrate our wedding anniversary, which is November 27. This year, we are not going because we went to WDW instead. There is a great Christmas store that sells everything that you can think of. It is huge and has very nice personalized ornaments for about $5 to $6 each. The personalization is free and they do an awesome job. Also, in Gatlinburg, they have a really neat store that sells Pet Supplies and College merchandise. They have ornaments from all different colleges and universities. Most are schools that are hard to find.
Also, the food is awesome! Try the Apple Barn, which is near traffic light 1 and the Old Mill. The portions are huge and you can definitely share the meal with others. I love Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg and I am a little sad that we are not going to celebrate our 7th wedding anniversary there this year. I am not that sad because WDW was awesome!
