As much as I’d like for you to believe that we pack up and go home after Dollywood’s Harvest Festival ends, and then (like magic) we return and flip a switch to turn it into Christmas… that’s not true. In actuality, we have about 200 hosts who work around the clock for six days [...]
Bright and early one recent morning, my fellow intern, Hank, and I were able to experience Dollywood in all of its glory as we checked out the park’s most “Instagrammable” spots.
