Those look nice - doable... thank you Whitecoyote!

But still looking for that cabin experience - we want our own party/privacy if ya get me. We like to cook, hang out on the deck, enjoy some views, have a few cocktails after a days ride, and not have to worry about bothering anyone - not that we are wild and loud partiers of the like...

Buddy and I are taking the wimmin towards the end of June. Have cabins reserved at Tellico Plains. We ride twisties all the time so just doing it to say we did. Mostly wanted to tag this to gather information on other area attractions. Have fun OP and maybe see some of y'all on the road but don't get upset if I don't wave....

We stayed at Tapoco Lodge (Alcoa) in one of the cabins for several days 4 years ago. Great streamside setting, good meals in the restaurant, good prices.

Thanks very much guys for all the replies, thats what i needed. I will for sure ride MY ride like it has been explained. We are heading out in the morning, looks like it is going to be a chilly and somewhat wet ride. I hope the weather breaks so we can enjoy it more. I am really looking forward to this regardless it been on the bucket list for along time.

Here is where we will be staying. Pretty basic cabins but not there to do more than rest and sleep. Maybe get lucky!!!!!

+1 Beautiful Ride!

Ride safe and pack your leather as it will be a bit cool up that way.

Ride the Blue Ridge Parkway. Bring your leathers. It gets cool.
