I know many folks here ride the Dragon and Smokies in TN/NC, so I thought I might fish here.
I'm looking for a rustic cabin to rent for a few days in the spring. Must be in Tennessee and about 700-800 miles from DFW area (trying to make this a one-day to/from ride). That puts the eastern boundary ~100 miles east of Nashville, Nashville being the western limit. I'd like to, but am not eager to attempt making the Smokies in one day ride. That would be a two-day ride and I have to be frugal on time and expenses.
I looked at the state parks. They are either too fancy (I don't want TV, VCR, telephone, yadda yadda) or too expensive (>$75 night). I started searching online for commercial cabins and they are pretty much the same as above, and a plethora of them.
What happened to rustic? <sigh>
If anyone can recommend places they've been to or have heard of, let me know.
Thanks in advance.
