Great Smoky Mountains National Park
With its weatherboarding, interior paneling and shingled gables, as well as its white exterior and jaunty blue trim, this frame house, built in 1906, seems almost of the modern era.
The L-shaped front porch is a pleasant place to soak up the history and the scenery, which includes a stream rippling out front, a photogenic barn and the sound of birds singing in the background.
