Wilderness at the Smokies’ Sister Resort Featured on Travel Channel's "Extreme Resorts" show

Aug. 27, 2009 - PRLog -- SEVIERVILLE, Tenn. – The Travel Channel’s “Extreme Resorts” television show featured Wilderness at the Smokies’ sister resort, Wilderness Hotel & Golf Resort located in Wisconsin Dells, Wis., as one of the world’s eight most extreme resort properties.

Joe Eck, general manager at Wilderness Hotel & Golf Resort said to be included in the episode of Extreme Resorts, which started airing in mid-August, is a great honor.  In addition to Wilderness Hotel & Golf Resort in Wisconsin Dells, resorts from Malaysia, Switzerland, the Bahamas and United Arab Emirates were featured.

“As America’s largest waterpark resort, we take great pride in constantly adding new fun attractions for our guests to enjoy – and it is wonderful when a program, such as Extreme Resorts, recognizes your efforts,” Eck said.

Like Wilderness at the Smokies, the Wilderness Hotel & Golf resort has a combination of guest rooms, suites, condominiums, golf, and both indoor and outdoor waterparks and water attractions.

Wilderness Hotel & Golf Resort opened in 1995 and is owned by the same group that opened Wilderness at the Smokies last year.  Wilderness at the Smokies is located just minutes from Interstate 40 and situated in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains.  It is part of Bridgemont, the 1,000-acre development that includes the Sevierville Events Center and the 18-hole Eagle’s Ridge championship golf course.
