Drop Everything And Visit This One Epic Indoor Waterpark In Tennessee
An indoor waterpark? Yes. An indoor waterpark. And it’s in Tennessee. This may seem like a whole lot of crazy in the middle of the winter, but we’ve found one of the most unique and exciting places in East Tennessee to visit when the chill just gets to you. The Wild WinterDome Indoor Waterpark is just calling our name.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures!

At 66,000 square feet, the Wild WinterDome Indoor Waterpark has seven neat attractions that are perfect for everyone in the family. From waterslides to waveriders, this is the kind of cruise ship excitement you'd never expect to find in a landlocked state.
Washout Mountain sounds like a good first stop to us - with a BUNCH of spraying water features and two waterslides, your littles won't be able to contain their excitement.
Plus, blasting your siblings with water cannons can't get much better, can it? It's usually a mere dream in the middle of winter...
The Smokies Surf Rider is one of the most popular spots in the park, taking mountaintop body surfing to the next level.
Did you know that there's 19,000 gallons of water keeping the surf rider up to par? Pretty killer.
Runaway Canyon is a five-story raft ride for the whole family, and Magnolia Grove Hot Spa is perfect for mom and dad while the kids play. Also - the ceiling is GLASS. You can tan inside, away from the elements, folks.
10,000 square feet of a rolling wave pool? Sign. Us. Up. Meant to exemplify the heft of the ocean, you'll love the fun and safety of hanging out in the Great Wave.
Rides and attractions are dependent upon the height and age of visitors, so make sure to check ahead of time. You'll have to stay at Wilderness at the Smokies to gain access to the waterpark, making it the kind of vacation that's well worth the ticket price.
What a neat place! Here are 12 other things we Tennesseans want you to know about.
