We went there during the winter holiday season. It was very crowded with stop and go traffic clogging their main eight lane road. Learn to take the smaller roads behind all the stores running next to the creek like the locals.
We stayed at the KOA which was a short walking distance through Liberty Park next door to the main strip.
Grocery stores, Drug stores, and strangely enough, Liquor stores (other than the moonshine stores) are scarce on the main strip, so try to stock up on anything you need before heading into the area.
Have fun. It "Hillbilly Vegas" down there.
