Rent a Cabin and Visit the Salt and Pepper Museum

A little salt and pepper on your meal? What a combination for a wonderful meal on the town. Rent one of our Gatlinburg cabin rentals and visit the highly acclaimed Salt ‘n’ Pepper Museum. This museum is sure to add some flavor to your vacation. It’s a one of a kind museum, and the only salt and pepper museum on earth! The new location in Gatlinburg, which is a lot bigger, is just off downtown and near a trolley stop. It’s accessible to all, and enjoyable for the whole family. There is a big parking lot that also has a winery and a jelly store. The museum is above the Flapjacks Pancake House, so eat up before you go visit the museum. It is open in the summer from 10:00 a.m. till 6:00 p.m. and the winter from 10:00 a.m. till 5:00 p.m. Admission is free, but donations are accepted.

The owners of the wondrous museum, the Ludden’s, never thought they would eventually end up with thousands of salt and pepper shakers while just searching for just one set. Their story is an interesting one, as they didn’t have a peppermill at home, so they went looking for one. After visiting a few flea markets, they became fascinated with salt and pepper sets. They bought, and bought, and bought some more. Finally, they purchased a total of 17,000 salt and pepper shakers from Texas to East Tennessee, where they opened the museum in Gatlinburg. The shakers come from a variety of materials ranging from glass, ceramics, wood, walnut shells, antlers, bones, sea shells, metal, crystal, and just about any material you can imagine.

They have the largest pepper mill ever made, which accompanies the smallest salt and pepper shakers as well. If you have any questions, please call the museum at (888) 778-1802.
