Gatlinburg, TN recommendations

Headed there with the GF in March. Need some ideas on things to do? I think snows melted at that point and not sure water sports (rafting) are a good idea that point.
We already plan on doing some day hikes, but we'll be there for 5-6 days. Can only hike in the damn woods so much.
I heard Cades Cove is worth seeing. Will also explore the town of Gatlinburg as well.
What else? Anything that I can't miss?

We went last year, and will go again this year. Last year we hiked to a different water fall everyday. I would say the Ramsey's Cascades was the best.

30 minute plus Helicopter ride is well worth the money.

Never seen so many pancake houses in one place before.
There is a hike trail near Cades Cove that goes off to see a nice water fall. About a 5-6 mile hike. Not long but nice.

Cades Cove, Roaring Fork Motor Trail, Old Mill.

Cades Cove is a must visit for anyone visiting the area. Where are y'all staying? I highly recommend the Lodge at Buckberry Creek if you aren't wanting to go the cabin route. The aquarium is top notch. Get out of town a little and zipline at Firefox Mountain. Really nice, family run property with a great trail to a waterfall and tons of ziplines. English Mountain Trout Farm and Grill is hands down the coolest dining experience in the area. You catch your own trout from their pond and they cook it right there for you. I visit the area often even though I live only a few hours away in the mountains already. You will have a good time no matter where you go. Pics of GF or STFH.

Why are you going to that hell hole ?

Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge are incredibly boring. Half of the people there are over 50. Pigeon forge is nothing but go cart tracks and "flap jack" restaurants and Gatlinburg reminds me of a G-rated French quarter. Unless you're looking to spend time with your grandchildren, I suggest avoiding both cities at all costs. I went with my family several times as a child and once recently. I hated it every time.
