Thanks for taking us around on your trips. Very nice campground.

What a beautiful facility! So many amenities and gorgeous setting! I was even thinking they might have stabling facilities there if you wanted to bring horses, but I see they’ve already got their hands full. Thank you so much for showing us these great locations for vacationing!

Karen and Mike, Greatly enjoy your KZread channel. Always enjoy the fireside chats, even your dinner reviews. I was wandering if you could maybe sometimes speaking about thing people can do with mobility issues. As for example I have COPD, and my wife has a bad knee. So sometimes it hard to even plan a trip because we don’t know what is available. We are 57 yrs of age , things like electric bikes or scooters, dune buggy, golf cart rentals are not out of question. Your alls videos has really helped us in choosing places. Thank you for all ya do. We are just looking for things to help us along and have a better experience instead of struggling or even dreading going .once again, Thank you.

What a beautiful resort. Enjoyed your fireside chat...hit close to home...its even more difficult when the guilt trip is within the family...that's tough...they lay it on thick..and insist you keep the " reservation". Makes things difficult. Appreciate the chat. Would love a part 2 of family guilt trips... Hope to see y'all in October.

Wow what a place!

Good Job Guy's , We have stayed at the Ridge a few times. It's easy to get to with out going through the main area of Pigeon Forge. The same people that own the Ridge are the one's building the campground beside of The Museum of Appalachia. They were working on it when we met you guys that day.

The last I heard they were having some regulation issues with permits, she also said the weather weather wasn't cooperating. We might ride down this weekend and check it out I'll let you know how it looks.

Beautiful campground, I enjoyed the great company and good food. One of my favorite parts, everything is my favorite, hard to pick though, Fireside Chat is tops for myself. I don’t understand the reason folks try and put guilt on others, i think they need prayers and need to feel love. That deck of cards isn’t on my table to play. Thank you thank you for always putting your viewers and all others first in this life. All my Love, hugs and kisses for Big T

Storming in the Florida Panhandle. Blowing rain, thunder, lightning. Thunder is so loud it shakes the house and windows. I usually don't like resort campground, but this one is very nice. Pet friendly. Great. I love that they have the church on site. Glad they have tiny houses, and glamping tents. Choices for people who don't have a travel trailer, rv, etc. Loved the blessing, the food, and the fireside chat. Poor Big T, I pray he heals soon. 🙏 Hugs 🤗 and kisses to you buddy. Get well soon. ❤️

Continued prayers for him and my whole family please. He has been through so much with a hurt back and 2 bladder stone surgeries and now this. He is 13.
