The Homestead and The Shed

The pioneer past comes alive at this stunning, one-of-a-kind property with unbeatable mountain views,
notable architectural features, a detached guest house, and a wonderful outdoor space for dining and
relaxing. Located on top a mountain road in the historic Timber Ridge Community of Gatlinburg – a community
of authentic and antique log homes in a truly natural setting – The Homestead and The Shed offer rustic
ambience with modern convenience, comfort, and function and are within minutes to Gatlinburg, Pigeon
Forge, and the national park.

Reclaimed in 2020 from a Roan County farm in West Virginia, The Homestead is a mid-1800s, hand-hewn
dogtrot cabin – two separate log cabins on either side of an enclosed breezeway – with huge white oak logs
with chinking and beautiful dovetail notching. In 2022, the Barnwood Builders transported the logs to
Tennessee and reconstructed them on this site. Each of the massive logs was painstakingly marked and tagged
to enable accurate reconstruction and restoration of the original, early cabin. At 1,400 sq. ft., this cabin
features high-stacked, chinked logs and exposed beams, along with tongue and groove construction.
The Homestead has a fully furnished galley-style kitchen with granite countertops in the enclosed breezeway
as well as a laundry. The original log cabins are located on either side. Each cabin consists of a king bedroom
with built-in twin beds and a full bath with a shower/tub combo. The open living and dining area features a
gas stone fireplace and mountain views both inside and outside on the full-length covered porch. The porch
has rockers, a dining table/chairs, and a hot tub, all providing exceptional outdoor living.

Mere steps from The Homestead, The Shed – at 215 sq ft – is the perfect retreat for those who enjoy cozy,
efficient living. This tiny home has an open design with living, bath, and a full bed on the lower level and a loft
featuring a kitchenette (sink, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, and small refrigerator), bistro set, and an
open-air deck with mountain views.

Be surrounded by beauty, serenity, and history at The Homestead and The Shed, where the quality and
attention to detail respect the Smoky Mountain tradition. Be watchful for bears and other wildlife as they
stroll by. For outdoor cooking, two park-style grills are conveniently located in the parking area. If wishing to
vacation with others, Sheriff’s Cabin sits just below The Homestead in Historic Timber Ridge Community.
Other nearby cabins on Smokerise Mountain by the same owner are Always, Ever After, Journey’s End, and
Life’s a Bear.
