Year Purchased: 2002
Why the Owner Chose Coker Creek
Originally we looked to buy a cabin in Georgia. After checking out the pristine beauty around Tellico Plains and Coker Creek, however, we were convinced this area had no equal. We selected this log cabin because it was a perfect honeymoon hideaway that we could renovate, furnish and enjoy. Because we saved money by doing most of our own repairs and upgrades, we are able to keep our costs down and pass these savings on to our guests.
The Unique Benefits at this Log Cabin
The main benefit is peace and quiet. This cabin is also very private, yet close to shopping, natural attractions, and a wide variety of outdoor activities and scenic drives.
"Downtown" Coker Creek features antique shops, art galleries, a gold mining shop, and nearby Coker Creek Village Christian Camp.
Joe Brown Highway is one of the oldest roads in the country, and is part of the historic Trail of Tears.
Highway 165 in Tellico is the start of the 50-mile Cherohala Scenic Byway that crosses the Unicoi mountains and two national forests before arriving in Robbinsville, NC. Gorgeous views.
Owner's Map of Coker Creek
Michael & Brigitte Craig. We love to travel and used to own several vacation properties in 2 countries. Cupid's Cove is our only rental left, however. Economic reality prompted us to sell the rest, but we consider ourselves fortunate. Other than occasional jaunts to the beach, this honeymoon mountain log cabin has always been our favorite getaway! Our cat, however, is rather indifferent and prefers to be left with friends.

Quiet and Relaxing. . . We had a great time and loved the scenery. We would definitely consider staying here again in the future.

Mr. Craig, We had a lovely weekend at Cupid's Cove. Tina connected with us late in the day on Friday and she was very helpful. We rarely have the opportunity for a "couples getway" (we have four kids); so Tina's ability to accomodate our last minute request was certainly appreciated! Your cabin was clean, cozy, comfortable and VERY relaxing. Thank you so much.

My grandson Jake and I spend three peaceful nights at Cupid's Cove last week! What a pretty setting for a cabin! We thoroughly enjoyed the activities in the surrounding area. The cabin was cozy, clean, and comfortable. The screened porch was especially nice in the evening since the insects are so very active this time of year. I'd recommend your cabin to any couple wanting to get away from it all!

If you like peace and quiet, this is the perfect place. The cabin is cute and has everything you would need.

I lost my job in January of 2006 - and have been very stressed. Keith went online to find a place to be romantic and fun with hikes... I can't say how beautiful of a place, and we will be back soon.

We were married May 20th and spent our Honeymoon here! It was awesome . . . could not have planned a better time. We look forward to many more visits to create new memories and reflect on memories made.

My husband and I were very pleased with Cupid's Cove! We always try to come to Tellico each spring to go trout fishing. Normally we camp one night, but we were both very satisfied not camping this year. This cabin made it very much worth not camping. We were delighted that we could still build a fire (as we do when we camp) and sleeping in a comfy bed helped make the decision to come here again for our next trout adventure. The cabin was well kept and extremely clean. Also, my husband found this place on the Net, and I made our reservations with ease.

We are very pleased with our experience here. I made the reservation from Iraq as a getaway for my wife and I. It is truly a perfect setting away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. We enjoyed window shopping in Tellico Plains and the Cherohala Skyway. P.s., It's good to be home!

We really enjoyed spending our 10th anniversary here. The cabin is great. We loved hiking Bald River and the falls are magnificent. Lost Sea was another favorite. We are truly blessed to have this time to get away from our hectic schedules, to relax and enjoy nature. God is so good!! We look forward to coming back.

The style, ambience and amenities of Cupid's Cove are great! (As parents of adult children and grandchildren, I would prefer another name for the cabin . . . I do feel a might uncomfortable telling them that Mom and Dad spent a weekend in a place called Cupid's Cove.) As others have written, the beauty and majesty of this area point to the greatness of God the Creator. May others see this in the creation and give praise to God for it.
