Gatlinburg Cabins in Timberidge Community

Happy Camper — Tue, 12 May 2009 20:00:00 GMT

The Great Smoky Mountains are one of Tennessee’s most amazing natural attractions and we are celebrating the 75th Anniversary this year! A great way to spend a week is to visit the park, hike the trails and stay in an authentic log cabin packed with its own history. This is an experience that the whole family will enjoy. The cabins of Timberidge are unique properties that were built 200 years ago. These homes came from the mountains of East Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky and North Carolina. Each home was tagged, marked & disassembled to be resurrected in the Timberidge community located in the foothills of the Smokies. All of these homes have modern amenities and have been updated for your comfort, but still maintain the integrity of the structures built by steady hands long ago. The craftsmanship is still visible and the new owners have taken great care, so that each detail fits beautifully in the home. These homes are on large lots so you are nestled among the trees in a community that treasures the past and specializes in creating memories for generations to come…. Explore the cabins of Timberidge today!

Smoky Mountains of Artists

There are so many talented artists in Gatlinburg, TN and I suppose in part it is due to the abundance of natural beauty of the Smokies which is a great source of inspiration for all. While you are in the area you must visit the Arts & Crafts Community where you can watch many of the artists create magnificent pieces in their shops.
Alewine Pottery is one of the places you must visit. It is a family owned business and has a dazzling array of pottery from luminaries to salsa bowls. Robert Alewine is the master artisan and you can watch him on the potter’s wheel for hours as his masterpieces take shape. You can get a sneak peek at their website www.alewinepottery.net.
For a delicious home cooked meal Windwalkers Café is the best food in town! We eat there at least once a week and besides the food the café is always good for a mid-week pick-me-up. The owner Annette is always good for a smile and friendly chit chat. She is from Louisiana and cooks most of the food ranging from jambalaya to southern favorites like turnip greens and corn bread. After you have had your fill you must try one of the desserts, her homemade pies and cakes are absolutely sinful.
The Jim Gray Gallery is an opportunity you will not want to miss; his paintings and sculptures are awe-inspiring. You can spend hours in the Gallery just trying to take it all in. You can learn more about the artist and view his work at www.jimgraygallery.com.
Grab a cup of coffee at Coffee & Company and I assure you Starbucks will no longer be appealing! Jeanette, the owner, will tell you the same and if you don’t believe me just ask – at your own risk! The coffee is a staple in the community and many of us spend hours in the shop since she has wireless internet access (WIFI) and treats to go with the coffee.
There are so many wonderful shops in this quaint community that you will need to plan a day just to meander through at a leisurely pace and enjoy all this area has to offer. The hustle and bustle of downtown feels like a world away when you are in the Arts & Crafts Community of Gatlinburg Tennessee.
We would love to know what places you can’t miss while visiting.
