River Plantation RV Resort
Sevierville, TN
The journey begins........ actually one small step. We traveled a vast 72 miles to River Plantation RV Resort with a stop over at RVs For Less in Knoxville to get a few minor maintenance issues fixed.
It was bittersweet leaving Caney Creek where we had made several good friends and enjoyed our lakefront view.
As we drove away our site looked barren. We spent a lot of time and energy fixing up the site by adding rock, shrubs, and pavers....and our good friend Steve even poured a section of concrete for us.
The trip through downtown Knoxville was uneventful and we had a smooth drive through Sevierville. I think our many practice trips paid off and I felt very comfortable pulling the rig and maneuvering through traffic. Still it was a relief to pull up to River Plantation.
It was a bigger relief to get in our site and all set up.
We will be relaxing here for the next week and will be enjoying Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and the Smoky Mountains before heading over the mountains to Asheville and Marion, NC.
A little sad to see the empty lot at Caney Creek but what an exciting day! I love the pics and thanks for sharing the start of the journey. The new site looks nice! You'll have so much fun at Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg and those beautiful Smokies! Enjoy your week at River Plantation! Love you!
