Summary: Really nice, clean property. Beautiful views and lots of locations within a relatively close drive for hiking and enjoying the Smoky Mountains. Very peaceful. The final few miles up the mountain after you leave the main road to get to the property can be a bit tense if you have to pass someone coming down at the same time (pretty narrow with hairpin turns) but it's certainly worth the drive. Owners were very responsive to questions submitted and easy to work with. Great property.
