About this property
Step back in time a charming 1880 historic cabin
Imagine spending a few nights living like David Crockett or Daniel Boone in the Tennessee Foothills with a fire in the fireplace and nestled on a horse farm by a trickling creek. Rustic but with modern conveniences such electric stove, clawfoot bathtub, central air and heat. Great views and a porch swing. Loft bedroom, washer and dryer, Microwave and coffee maker and stocked kitchen with an outdoor gas grill. Just 2 miles from historic Jonesborough, Tennessee's oldest town. We ask for at least 2 night stays on the weekends. One night is ok weekdays.

About the host
Hosted by Ricky Walters

Welcome to the 1880'S Cabin, I'm Rick and I'll try my best to make your stay as enjoyable as possible during your stay. I have 4 children and 6 grandchildren. I also raise and train English Pointers at the Eagle's Nest and they are the real host....I'm a former SC State Trooper and spent 24 years as a Cavalry Officer in the Army National Guard and I served 2 tours of duty in Iraq. I own an Insurance and Investment Company that provides benefits to school systems and educators. I love to travel and have been to 6 of the 7 continents. .. I have installed an REME-HALO air purification system. I have another property on Watauga Lake, TN near the NC line.
