GRITS is GREAT
We loved our stay at this private cabin. The Wilderness Resorts is a very nice gated community that provides privacy to all the residences. We did not see anyone else our entire stay, including on the horse trails. The horse trails are some of the best in the BSF.

Another wonderful stay at GRITS
I think this is our 4th or 5th time staying at GRITS. That should be all I need to say. The cabin is comfortable, well equipped, very clean, ...pretty much everything we like. Communication with the owner is excellent. The barn and turnout are safe and so convenient. We'll be back.

Perfect Hiking Getaway
Our hiking group reserved the Grits cabin for our yearly hiking trip. It was wonderful and met all of our needs beautifully. The wooded setting was so peaceful and the location was fantastic on the edge of the Big South Fork River and Recreation area that we had come down to hike. One of our days we jumped on the trails right from the cabin. The hot tub was lovely at the end of a day of hiking. Thank you for such lovely and comfortable accommodations!

Fun in the Mountains
The house was very clean and welcoming. Everything was exactly as advertised. There were plenty of blankets to keep us warm and a hot tub to relax. We enjoyed the river a short distance away. We drove to Royal Blue for a day of off-roading and had a ball. Wonderful stay. We also saw a lot of deer and a black bear. Loved it! Would recommend visiting and I would to

Beautiful home in wonderful location
Friends of 50 years met here to go to out high school reunion of 50 year. Just the right size with the right amenities. We loved having the porches and would have enjoyed the outdoor fireplace, but ran out of time.

Loved The grits cabin!
It fit our party, plenty of towels ,blankets , cleaning supply’s. Beautiful cabin, hot water was awsome after all of our showers. Hot tubs was wonderful after we got back from our 6 hrs of riding each day. A lot of dishes, I could go on and on. So relaxing there. Yes I would come back. Only bad thing would be if u have horses. There is 3 paddocks and 20 steps up a hill packed hay was hard for us being in our 60s. Paddocks we’re old up the hill but behind the barn we’re great and big enough for a lot of horses there , really could make that 2 paddocks if wanted too. Little tight for 3 trailers but hey we been in worst spots. Other than that. It was amazing! Trails were good. Woods and river so nice. But cabin is fully stocked and clean. Thz for having us.

What a dream place
I have stayed at wilderness resort before but Grits is by far superior to all them. The house is situated on the park. The house amenities are second to none. Everything is so well thought out for horse riders. The house is immaculately clean. I can not say enough about this place. The outdoor fireplace. The barn. The jacuzzi. All perfectly placed. Thanks for allowing us in staying in your property.

Home Sweet Home
This cabin is very well stocked. It met our every need and so much more. This is the second time we have stayed in this cabin. It feels very comfortable. It feels like I am staying in a family members home. It has plenty of space to gather with friends and family. The bedrooms give you plenty of privacy too. We hiked on a few of the trails at Big South Fork, and it was really nice to soak in the hot tub when we returned to the cabin. I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a very quiet getaway in the woods. I do not have horses, but if you do, it is a must. I love this cabin!

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Lees

Host profile image
My husband and I (married 35 years) and our two daughters, have always enjoyed the outdoors. We dreamed of owning a cabin where we could enjoy our family and our horses. We are both native Tennesseans and put down roots in Middle TN to raise our kids. My passion is equine rescue, and I spend most of my spare time trying to make a difference and educate people on animal welfare. We currently have several equine rescues, as well as several dogs n cats!

Why they chose this property

Our familly spent the last several years going to different destinations to hit the trails. In 2010 we decided to stay in the GRITS cabin and explore the Big South area. We found ourselves going back to this area, and when the cabin went up for sale, we made the decision we had to have this piece of paradise!

What makes this property unique

GRITS (Girls Raised in the South), is such a great location to enjoy the BSF. Ride from the barn right onto the trailhead and miles of trails. We love sitting in the hot tub and building a fire when the season turns cool. Sitting on the screened in porch and listening to the bullfrogs and the crickets makes the work week a memory.
