During the summer, you can also enjoy the sunflowers and zinnias blooming. We just ask that you do not leave food out because we have several wildlife visitors, including the occasional black bear, that might help themselves.

Keira's Kabin

1 site · Lodging9 acres · Friendsville, TN
It started as a simply place to get away for the family but then family and friends started asking to use our Kabin so the rest is history. My brother and I built it from the ground up and did our best to replicate a 100+ year old mountain cabin. We do hope you enjoy the peace and quiet you'll get when staying at Keira's Kabin.Learn more about this land:If you want to get away from the hussle and bussle of today's busy schedule, this is the place.  Surrounded by woods, nature and lots of wildlife.  Keira's Kabin sits down in a very quiet area on the property along side a spring fed creek.   It's very easy to get to and can accomodate up to 4 people.  The bunk bed allows 1 person to sleep up top and 2 people to sleep on the bottom.  There's also a lounge chair that folds out that another person can sleep on. All the bedding is available at the cabin, but if you want to bring your sleeping bags, you are more than welcome to.  There are some eating utensils available as well as a variety of cooking tools (frying pan, tongs, spachulas, etc). You can choose to use the campfire to cook or you can use the propane camp stove if you choose.  We also have a hot dog and hamburger holder, popcorn maker, marshmellow spears and sandwich makers that are used for cooking over the campfire.  There is great cell service at the cabin but no wifi.  Other area services include, Kengo gas station near the entrance of the property and within 7-10 minutes you can be in town to get anything you need.  Please let us know if you have any questions and we will be more than happy to help!
