WILDLIFE:
Since the cabin is located in the wilderness area, you will likely see and hear critters. As hard as we try to prevent pests with a comprehensive pest control process and monthly treatments, there may still be visits from 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 100+ legged creatures (i.e. millipedes, ladybugs, flying squirrels, etc) in the cabin. You may also occasionally hear woodpeckers pecking at the cabin exterior — they are attracted by carpenter bees common in the area. Please help prevent it by closing entry doors when not in use. Lastly, it is not uncommon to encounter wildlife animals, such as bears while staying in cabins in the Smoky Mountains. Please keep your distance. Close your car windows and lock the doors. Do not leave food in the car or unattended outside the cabin.
