and slopes, swimming, picnicking, gambling (at Harrah's Casino, in

ADVENTURE OUTINGS

you may wish to go on a backpacking trip, a canoeing adventure,
or go rafting, kyaking, or tubing down the rapids in the various
rivers such as the Chatooga, the Chattahoochee, or the Nantahala. You
may prefer looking for arrowheads, exploring for caves or caverns,
or prospecting and panning for valuable gemstones or gold nuggets.
WILDLIFE
Interested in animals? Our guests
have reported seeing lots of wildlife near the cabin. Even a bear
or deer will occasionally meander through the yard. Bird watchers
can enjoy viewing a large variety of birds including eagles, owls,
turkeys and hummingbirds.
MOUNTAIN MUSIC & FOLKLORE
How ‘bout a little mountain music?
Real mountain folk frequently gather at various locations with
their guitars, harmonicas, harps, banjos, dulcimers, fiddles and
other instruments, to entertain you with picking, singing, clogging
and dancing to genuine mountain music. Many of their songs offer
tales of regional folklore, legends, and local history. You might
even hear some old fashioned hillbilly yodeling.
