Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a lovely comment. I try very hard to research my writing to make sure the facts are correct so I love hearing from locals who provide that confirmation. Cades Cove is definitely one of the special places in the US and I really hope I will have an opportunity to return someday and spend more than a day there.

Thanks for sharing your adventure with everyone.I am a native of the area and also a great, great grand daughter of John Oliver. I live very near to the cove now. As a Matter of fact, my grandmother was born in the cove. My mother is still alive and has lots of great stories to tell. I experience a vast amount of wildlife here and to me it is the greatest place on earth. But after all, I call it home. This is a wonderful article.

Not many people can point to a pioneer history like you have. Love to know how you finally discovered it. Wow Annie – that’s so cool. Not many people can point to a pioneer history like you have.

My family built the baptist church, the mill was a my great aunts, and of course there's the homestead. It's awesome being able to look back on my family history in such a tangible way. Glad you enjoyed it and I'm glad the state park has preserved it so long.

We just happened upon the place, and absolutely loved it.. Seeing the pioneer farm, though some od the buildings had been moved there, was educational, informative, as well as enjoyable.. We seen flocks (is that what you call it for Turkeys?lol) several deer, but no bears.. Traavelling down the one lane road, was really nice, with plenty of pullover spots, so others could get around.. We didnt like being hurried, so we pulled over often. one day, on another adventure, we took off on the primitive road, one lane one way 7 miles, the same as the pioneers travelled to take their goods to market.. 3 day trip,, one there, one day to trade and sell their goods and visit with folks, and one day back.. Cades Cove also let you look back and imagine, what life would have been like back then.. I got to where I was calling my vehicle, The Wayback Machine, as it would take us back in time to these pioneer places od adventure. lol Another place not to miss, is heading east, towards Cherokee. Just before you get to Cherokee, in North Carolina, they have another pioneer farm set up, with many buildings, and a hiking trail through the farm.. another place, I would firmly recommend to visit.. Thanks for your article and pics,, (the pics, are identical to mine, lol) Papaw Cade;s Cove was an unexpexted surprise dor Nana and I when we ventured into the Park, in September 2009.
