Timberfallrefuge This is a rustic log cabin built in 1973. Tranquil is a genuine, old-growth log cabin nestled deep in the Smoky Mountains. This is not a new build or a renovated vacation rental. The wood has history. The walls have character. You are surrounded by dense forest, wildlife, and all the sounds and smells that come with it. If you are looking for a pristine, hotel-like experience, this is not your cabin. If you want to unplug in a real mountain retreat, you are in the right place.
