ABOUT THESMOKIES.COM

TheSmokies.com is the largest family-owned virtual tour guide site in the Smoky
Mountains for travel tips, expert advice and virtual guides. We want to be your
go to resource for attractions and things to do in Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge,
Wears Valley, Townsend and Sevierville.

Co-Founder Morgan Overholt’s fondest childhood memories include spending
weekends and summers in the Smoky Mountains. Her family bought Dollywood season
passes every other year. Birthday dinners were usually spent on the Parkway in
Pigeon Forge. School field trips would inevitably include either Ober Gatlinburg
(now Ober Mountain) or Ogles Waterpark.

She spent the early years of her career working for a local area newspaper, The
Citizen Tribune (where she earned a Tennessee Press Association award). Years
later she went on to found her media agency, Morgan Media LLC. But in 2020, she
had a career-changing idea. She wanted to start a regional travel blog about the
area she knew and loved. And so, she convinced her sister Alaina (also a TPA
award winner), and husband James, to join her in a grand travel business
venture.
