There has been some questions as to the condition of the cabins we have reserved in the Nantahala forest. So far we have reserved cabins 1 and 6. You can view these cabins at Nantahalacabins.com.
They are fully furnished including everything we need to cook in the fully instrumented kitchen. All you need is a toothbrush. Five to six couples have already signed up. If you have never been to western NC you won't want to miss this trip. Those who do not want to whitewater raft can choose from visiting the cherokee casino, horse back riding, great smoky mountain railroad excursion, hiking trails, zip lines through the treetops, etc.

Did you know that Robert Mitchum starred and sung the Theme song "Ballad of Thunder Road" for the 1950's movie "Thunder Road". Its the only song he ever recorded and this movie has scenes filmed on US129, the Tail of the Dragon.

Pete, does this mean you and Belinda are staying at the Hampton for the complete "adventure" and not at the cabins? Connie & Stu
