An article published earlier this week in our Smoky Mountain area’s The Mountain Press strongly confirmed what we have known for several months: Gatlinburg’s new Rocky Top Sports World Complex (RTSC) is absolutely blowing away even the most enthusiastic performances projections that were made prior to its opening in July of 2014. Furthermore, the positive impact of the RTSC to our Gatlinburg area economy is also even greater than anyone’s forecast. More visiting guests creates more revenue for the lodging, food service, and entertainment businesses and all of the businesses that support those sectors of our local economy, including the Gatlinburg real estate sector. For the newspaper’s full article, please follow this link, but to fully participate in our community’s rapid growth you should consider owning Smoky Mountain real estate!
