I am planning my trip to Dollywood for the weekend of June 13th. We are thinking of stopping at the three Alpine coasters near there.

Smoky Mountain Alpine Coaster
The Coaster at Goats on the Roof
Gatlinburg Mountain Coaster

At $15 each, the price isn't too bad. Is there one or two that's better than the other or should I try them all? Am I missing anything else in the area that I must try?

I would do all of them! If you're a member of ACE, there is a discount at the Gatlinburg one. I think it's $12 / person.

The only one I've done so far is the one in Pigeon Forge. It was awesome! Truly a great experience. And it lasts over 7 minutes! The one in Gatlinburg was under construction when I was there last summer and it looked even better than the one in Pigeon Forge. I haven't seen the one at Goats on the Roof, but I've heard it's awesome.

There's actually a fourth one under construction now at Ober Gatlinburg, but it's not scheduled to open till July. I'll be driving through there in July, and I plan to hit up all of them when I come through.
