Another #hiddentreasure of Appalachia is this view from Vilas Overlook. I managed to snap a picture at the perfect time—the leaves are changing colors, the goldenrod is in full-bloom, and the cloudy sky is covering the hills like a blanket. That’s right—not even the cloudy skies can diminish the incredible view that this is. I found it on my way to Trashcan Falls, and it is up a dirt road. The view was different than other overlooks like Thunderhill and Howard’s Knob in my opinion because this one was nestled right in a residential area. You can even see the house I had to park above to get this shot! Luckily it was a lazy Sunday and nobody seemed to notice I was there—they were all probably napping after church! #appalachianechoes

"As always, it’s a pleasure to stay a bit at Miuntain Harbour. Friendly, restful, and the food is exceptional. Can’t visit Tennessee without (at least) one night here. "

"beautiful location. accomodations were clean and well appointed. "

"This is our third time staying and we will for sure stay again. In fact we are planning a week stay next year. The place is amazing and the owners were very nice and generous and met all our needs. It is easy to find and many sites to visit is a short drive. Very clean and cozy place to stay and it really makes you feel at home. "

"Convenient location. Room was very spacious and fantastic! Most comfortable bed I’ve slept in that I can remember. My wife loved the jacuzzi tub. The fireplace was a pleasant surprise."
