Mike, Thanks for checking on us. Many thanks for allowing us to share your cabin up in the woods. We found it, alas but with some trouble. We came up through Franklin, and after a little trouble found our way over 1310 to Juneleska. Wow, that 1310 mountain is crazy high!!But beautiful ride. We loved the cabin! Simply adorable. So very pleasant that you all had stocked the extras that one needs with having to buy, spices, papertowels, butter, condiments, etc. we left some stuff too,I bet you will find most people will also leave behind for the next folk, just as someone did before them. It was much colder than we had expected, ran the heater all night. Didn't discover the other heater until Saturday morning. It did snow Friday night almost 4inch I would say. Was really pretty, but we were not prepared, didn't have much food and was not sure we could get down the drive much less little choga. Sat morn, still snowing and very cold, when we got up couldn't find a station with much weather info other than going to the teens. We waited until snow melted enough to leave. Just could not take the chance that we might get stuck on mountain,Easter morng, so we had to pack up and leave early. We were all sad about having to leave, but I must admit, me, my mother and my youngest daughter were NOT sad about the fact we wouldn't be going over little choga again! Very scary, road in normal conditions.much less snow and ice. I was disappointed that we were not closer to the vast amounts of antique shops, I saw coming in, and it seemed we were really far from much to do. Made it to NOC, was really cold not many rafters. Tried to ridge horseback, couldn't get a reservation, except for the one we missed due to being snowed in Sat am early. Finally found Bryson City, and felt better. Nice little town great charm. Loved the Italian rest there. Sat after we left, went all the way back around to Cherokee, down through Dillsboro and Franklin. Everything was closed by the time we made it there. We did take kids to trout farm right off junelseka, they loved that. I sure hated to waste one of our nights, as did my family. We live near Atlanta and the city, as I may have mentioned this was our First ever cabin rental, I was not really expecting such a remote place,not having phone service was scary, I have cingular and I cant think of many times I haven't had service, this was a first for us. but we enjoyed the cabin itself, and would like to have one of our own one someday in north Ga.
