Since the 1890s when the history of film began, people have loved movies. They provide an escape from reality for a short period of time and allow us to engage with characters and stories that take our imaginations and emotions on a wonderful journey.
However, going to the movie theater can be expensive and inconvenient, especially when you’re on vacation. If you’re like most people, you like to spend time exploring and experiencing the Smoky Mountains, but when the evening rolls around, it’s nice to be able to sit back and relax
For this reason, many cabins in the Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge area offer accommodations with home theaters to serve as an alternative to making a trip to a theater.

Cost Efficiency
A cabin with a home theater is vastly more cost efficient than taking a trip to the local cinema. The average cost of a movie ticket can range from $7 to $10. This means, for a family of four, tickets alone are going to be over $30, on average. By the time you add in the expensive concession prices, the cost can easily top $50 to $75 for a two hour experience.
Choosing a Gatlinburg cabin rental with a theater room gives you the opportunity to rent the movie of your 
choice for a fraction of the cost. You can rent a movie, or even bring one from home, grab a box of popcorn, candy and drinks–all for under $20. This makes for a cost effective and relaxing night in during your family vacation.
Plus, who doesn’t want to curl up in their pajamas and watch a movie on the big screen?
Convenience
Going to the local movie theater is also time consuming. From navigating traffic to finding a parking spot, the trip to and from the theater can be frustrating and ruin your experience. Why not enjoy a movie where you already are? With the convenience provided by a home theater system in your rental cabin, time is not a factor and will not hinder your enjoyment of the film.
Another convenient aspect of a home theater experience is the ability to pause the film for any reason at any time. No more worrying about missing the good part of the movie due to a phone call or popcorn craving!
With all this being said, as you decide on your next family vacation and begin to make plans on where to stay take into consideration the convenience of having a home theater in your cabin.
From saving on the money spent at the theater to the time spent getting there, the advantages of seeing a film where you are make for a wonderful experience for the whole family. So pick a film, grab your favorite snack and enjoy!
