Dollywood with physical needs
After going to Disney last spring, where they treated us so well, I have my standards set pretty high. And, Dollywood met them! The hardest part of the trip is that Dollywood is hilly by nature. There are 1-2 hills where you really are pushing up or down, but for the most part, the terrain is pretty manageable. We rented a wheelchair when we arrived for just $10. They also have ones with motors for adults. We then went to guest relations and got a pass to take us in the "Q-bot" line. Their version of the fast pass line. It was not a busy day when we attended, but the wheelchair does not fit through the turns of the regular lines, so it was Q-bot for us all day. We never waited more than a few minutes for any ride. The kid section was great and we spent a lot of time there. We rode some of the other coasters, but held Griff off of a few of them since we are still working on his core strength.
Though it was freezing cold the day we went, we had a great day and I would return again in warmer weather. There was lots of handicapp parking at the front of the park, but I can imagine that it might fill up on a busy day. But, they have trams running in all the lots so you don't have to walk a long distance.
I would recommend Dollywood and found it very manageable with my son with CP.
