Gatlinburg City Parks

Gatlinburg has 3 city parks with pavilions, sports fields, restrooms, fishing streams, and other various outdoor amenities.

What? You thought the Great Smoky Mountains National Park was the only park in Gatlinburg? Well, you’d be surprised how many people actually believe that to be true. In reality, Gatlinburg is home to three large city parks that get quite a bit of traffic.

Whether it be kids playing on the playground, a game of football, or maybe a large church group, Gatlinburg’s parks have a number of uses. Each city park has a covered pavilion which large groups, families planning a reunion, and church groups can reserve for outings. Each of the covered pavilions are FREE to Gatlinburg residents to for such gatherings.

For those who live outside of the Gatlinburg city limits who wish to reserve a pavilion, there is a fee. At Mynatt and Mills Park, it’s $25 for up to 4 hours of pavilion usage, usage over 4 hours is $35. At Herbert Holt Park, up to 4 hours of usage is $35, and over 4 hours is $45. Anyone interested in reserving a pavilion can call the Gatlinburg Recreation Department at (865) 436-4990. Fees must be paid prior to using the facility.
