Because it was dark (and very late) we were not able to see what kind of place we had rented for the next two days. The house, however, was very unique, resembling a moonshine cottage in the country. The inside was decorated and pleasing. The upstairs bedroom had a large bathroom with shower. The downstairs bed was a couch conversion. Ron and Nancy had brought an inflatable mattress for this purpose. It made sleeping much more comfortable. We all turned in almost as soon as we could.
The next morning, we took a look see at the outside and decided it was very cool! The yard was very large because the owners lived in another similar home on the property. Their little six year old daughter had a tree house complete with a zip line across the yard. The chicken house and pen was unique as well. With free WiFi, it felt much like a normal place.
The original owner had found these two houses in Tennessee. They were simple log homes with rock fireplaces, pretty much a one-room construction. He had disassembled them and brought them to this small acreage and reassembled them. The logs were weather beaten; gray from age. The concrete seal between logs appeared to be the same old color. The current owners were construction builders and completely remodeled both houses, complete with add-on’s; loft, kitchen, dining room, two bathrooms, instantaneous endless hot water heater, ductless wall hung heat and cool unit, etc.
We would certainly recommend this cool moonshine shack type cottage (as we call it).
