For me personally, TNhiker's suggestion would be a difficult 4 night hike for me, where as the 1st 4 night hike I ever did in GSMNP was the Bear Creek/Hazel Creek/Lakeshore loop I suggested.
So it sounds like if you ever want a long weekend in the park (i.e. two night hike) then the Cataloochee Lollipop, or the Forney Creek/Noland/AT loop would be good for you.
