Tennessee's climate: Hot, humid summers and chilly mountain winters
Although the weather in Tennessee is generally warm and humid during summer months and mild in the winter, the diverse topography can cause wide variations in average temperatures. Areas of high elevations experience cold winter weather and snow.
Vacation cabins in and around the Appalachians are ideal for a cozy retreat in the chilly winter months, and are well-suited for visitors exploring the great outdoors. Conversely, hot summer temperatures, especially in the state's big cities, can make the convenience of a vacation rental even more appealing as a refreshing retreat from long days of sightseeing.

Families will be thrilled by the beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains, known for their surreal fog and mist. Set out on the Appalachian Trail at the crack of dawn to enjoy sublime sunrise views. After all this physical activity, relax back at your Tennessee vacation cabin.
Other attractions that make it onto most itineraries include the Tennessee Aquarium, Rock City, Ruby Falls, and a customary cruise down the atmospheric Tennessee River Gorge. And why not sample a Jack Daniel’s Whiskey with the free distillery tours in Lynchburg?

Family Fun: Wild animals and even wilder thrill rides at Tennessee's top destinations
If family fun is a high priority, Tennessee has much to offer. With over 400 species housed on 70 acres of land, the Memphis Zoo will inspire wonder in children of all ages. Children will also marvel at the wide array of marine species housed at the Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga. As one of the nation's best aquariums, the facility features exhibits of river habitats and ocean species from as far away as the South Pole.
