The Wooden Footbridge over the Creek

On warm spring mornings, bright summer days, and during autumn's balmy weather, enjoy your breakfast on The South Deck.  This is the view from your breakfast table!  Look in another direction and you'll see the horses grazing in the pasture across our country lane, and beyond that another mountain rising into the sky.

The pathway between
the Guest House and the Main House

This meandering stone-lined path, reminiscent of Hansel & Gretel and fairytale woods, joins the Guest House to the Main House at Timberwolf Creek. Lined with native stones and boulders, it puts you under the misty scented boughs of the Smokies as you pass from bed to breakfast, and back...
