About this property
Peaceful, Large, Smoky Mountain View Log Home. Nestled in a quiet cove.
Our 70-acre private cove opens to a small rolling pasture enclosed by a dense natural forest. Skinner Spring Cove is a registered Tree Farm with the North Carolina Division of Forestry. Miles of logging paths traverse the property allowing guests to leisurely explore the natural habitat. The deck faces The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, with sunsets that shine behind Clingmans Dome in the distance. Built in historic Thomas Valley, the Peacock Family Lodge makes a modern day return to our early American roots. Whole log construction and furnishings brought from our grandfather's Pennsylvania farm, the atmosphere of this rustic log house is one of simplicity and authenticity. The great room features scissor beams that vault high overhead and an immense stone hearth. It is a warm and welcoming lodge.
