    Fun Fact: My Mom worked and managed the " Cavern Kitchen". Its the restaurant at the Lost Sea. It was in the early 70s. I remember going on tours all the time in the cave.. I knew it so well My Brother and I would just go to the boats and just come back up when ever we wanted..It is one of my favorite memories as a teen..

    I have followed you guys for quite some time now. Don't know why I am just now running across this post from 2 years ago, but am glad I did. My wife and I visited Lost Sea Caverns with our very best friends too many years ago. My wife passed a couple years ago. This video brings back such great memories.

    Love this!! this was within a few hours of where I grew up and we took field trips there once or twice a year. I remember the tunnel entrance so well, yet I had forgotten about the nature trail and the mini railroad and some of the other goodies!!

    Super excited you did this. We are headed to Tennessee, in August in this was on our to-do list. We came last year and decided to come back. Because we loved it so much. We stayed in Pigeon Forge last year. And in Gatlinburg. And this time we will be staying at the Wilderness of the Smokies for the children of course. Thank you so much for all your videos. Really give inside site onto what we want to do

    Hey guys, so glad to see this video, I love Lost Sea caverns. It is just nice sometimes to just go back in these caverns and cool off and enjoy nature's best. I know you enjoyed all of that today. I enjoy going along with you guys when I don't want to drive somewhere and I truly thank you for that. Love and blessings

    Thanks for another great video. I remember doing this when I was growing up. My dad was a teacher, so we traveled and camped all Summer and this is one of the many places that we went. I have such great memories of all the different states and places we’ve traveled to. Parents need to get their kids outside and enjoy nature more. Believe me kids will remember all the places you took them too. Thanks again Will and Dawn for sharing and bringing back wonderful memories.

    The young lady that did the boat tour was a hoot. You could tell that she enjoys her job just by the tone in her voice. She seemed happy that y'all took the time to come and see what they had to offer. I didn't hear that much excitement in the voice of your other tour guide. But he did seem to know all his facts. He was good at giving y'all all the information but I wonder if he really enjoys his job there. Over the past 63 years we've been to many cave tours and other type of tours and we can tell when the tour guides just do their job and give you the information. Then you got the tour guides that love their jobs and they turn the tour into a very enjoyable experience. The best tour we went on was back in 1990 or so we went to the Mammoth Caves and we took the lantern tour our guide was a older gentleman that knew his stuff and was good at his job and you knew from the start that it was going to be a awesome tour. He was fun and funny he loved his job and he let everyone know it from the start. He had been working there for over 20yrs. He said after 20yrs. he just quit counting he said he did the same with his wedding anniversary after 20yrs who cares if your still in love with your wife and job why bother counting any more. And that set the mood for the whole tour everyone knew we were going to have a great time and we did that was the best and we got our money's worth, and back then it sure wasn't cheap to take that tour but another couple was taking it again just because they enjoyed it so much. That's what sold us on spending the money to go on it.
    We have also had our share of bad tours one was so bad and she rushed us through everywhere that six of us went back to where we got our tickets and asked for our money back. We spoke with the boss lady and we all told her that we paid for about a one hour tour and it was over in 25 minutes and we didn't go to all the places that were listed on the tour. The lady said that those places were closed for improvements. The boss lady said no their not she said that they had been hearing not so good things about her but that no one ever came and asked for their money back. Well that boss lady gave us half of our money back plus two free tours our choice of the six they offered and a $50.00 buffet gift card and let me tell you that was one awesome pig out buffet... LOL... Wish I could remember the name of the place. It sucks having brain damage. Can't remember names of people and places. I can remember things that happened just can't remember where... LOL... Some about hitting a pickup truck broadside at 45MPH on a motorcycle the guy pull out in front of us... Okay that's another story for another time maybe...
    I've shared enough stories for now.
    Great video as always that's for sharing it... Much love and prayers be blessed in Jesus name... BBE

  • @gowenrv3762
    @gowenrv3762 3 года назад +3

    The moonshine still,,,, I have my doubts that was a true operating Still there inside the cave. It was probably added there many years ago for display. A Still requires building a fire,,,, you certainly could not stand to be in that cave with the smoke.
    I have been in many caves over my life, actually live within a mile of one.
    A simple cigarette smoking can stifle down everyone. LOL Believe me I know.
    Anyways....
    This is a great cave. I've been there twice.

    We went several years ago and it was so neat! We went on the boat ride. I’m very claustrophobic but this one didn’t bother me because it’s very roomy inside. You’re right about all the gift shops looking the same. That’s why we like going to Three Bears Gift shop in Pigeon Forge… It’s two story and has a little of it all… very nice. We enjoy your channel. Dawn is such a sweetie!

    Soo neat seeing everything in cave with boat ride too! Last time I was in a real cave was when I was teenager at Ohio Caverns. Also been to the one in Colorado visting friends with family when I was maybe 10 or 12. Little train on the trail would of been awesome restored for kids to have rides on. My youngest would of loved that! Thanks for taking us along ❤
