Day 32 of our 2025 RVing Adventure with Historical & Musical Interludes

It's Monday June 2nd, day 32 of our 2025 summer adventure. Before our long drive today, there was time for a walk, laundry and cleaning. 

This morning we said "see ya later" to Gaby & Milt as they headed east toward her Dad's house in NC with a stop at the Biltmore in Asheville. 

Tim & Debbie, Gary & Sheryl, and Charlie & I had a big move today. We left Brian & Lisa in Creekside and we drove the less than a mile to King's Holly Haven. This park was established in 1997.

The Owenby family have built King's Holly Haven RV park on the last 11 acres of property purchased by their grandfather Lewis M. King in 1928. Mr King's family was forced from their home in the Greenbriar area of Sevier Co. The Greenbriar community was taken into the Great Smoky MTN NP & its citizens had to find property & homes for their family elsewhere. 

The King family moved to this current location where Lewis M King & Frances Whaley King raised their family of 15. The 6 brothers early years were spent at Elkmont Ranger Station in The Great Smoky MTNS NP. Their father was the Elkmont Ranger & took care of the Elkmont District which included a large campground. Growing up in the Smokies & living beside the campground has been a good background to conceive, plan & build King's Holly Haven RV Park.

We are here for a Tennessee Good Sam's rally. Tim & Debbie and Gary & Sheryl are working the Yankee RV Tours booth here. Charlie and I are just attending the rally.

We had visitors that went between our site and Tim & Debbie's site.

After we arrived and got set up, Charlie and I had a relaxing afternoon on our site. Our home for the next 6 nights! 

Debbie and Jim arrive tomorrow, let more fun continue on our Two Lane Adventure!
