This is another example of the new vs. the old Appalachia through contrasting nature with development. Instead of a shopping and entertainment center, this is of a newly developed home that is (most likely) hundreds of thousands of dollars. It sits on a smaller hill, right off highway TN-91 in Wills, TN, an extremely small junction halfway between Laurel Bloomery and Mountain City. The frame doesn’t contain as much nature as other photos purposely. The goal in that is to show we can combine the new needs of Appalachia with the old beauty, but at a certain point, the new may strip away ‘too much’ of the old. #appalachianechoes

"I was looking for a peaceful woodsy retreat for my son and I while checking out Tweetsie, and this place did not disappoint! The space was clean and super cute. Even though rain prevented use of the firepit, it made for good salamander hunting near the creek out back. Will definitely be back!"

"Online description was accurate overall. It does state that the pictures may not depict your actual room but it was similar. We booked a studio which was more than adequate for my husband and I. Location was great, very close to downtown. We arrived in the evening so it was dark, a little confusing to navigate at first not being familiar with the area. Very cute little “village”. Our room was VERY CLEAN!! There’s a little lock box to leave a tip for the housekeeper which I thought was great! My...

"We all enjoyed the stay and accommodations! It was perfect for us four guys. The only thing was there was no air conditioning that we could find, so it was a little warm during the day, but cozy at night. The fans mitigated some of the heat though. I would easily stay here again."

"We really enjoyed our stay here. There was a play area for the kids, small pond that you can fish, and a small indoor area with puzzles/games. This place is great for an overnight or extended weekend. It is in a duplex, so if you want more of a private place this wouldn’t be it. Overall, it is clean, and we had a great experience."

"After many choices of places to stay , I decided on this Cozy Cabin. Family and friends drove up from Atlanta and arrived before our ski appointment. We would be coming to the cabin at night and wanted to check it out during the day. The friendly staff welcomed us and let us check in early, which made our day so much easier!!! The place was super clean, comfortable and exactly what our ski family was looking for.Too bad we were only there for one night the village had a nice lake and places to...

"**Peaceful Stay in a Beautiful Setting** We really enjoyed our overnight stay at Swiss Mountain Village in Blowing Rock, NC. The property is beautiful and peaceful—tucked away in the mountains with a charming, rustic feel. Our accommodations were cozy and comfortable, with everything we needed for a relaxing night. We were only passing through and stayed just one night to break up a long drive, but it was a great choice. Even though we arrived after check-in and left before staff were on-site, they were incredibly helpful and responsive via phone and email, making the process easy and stress-free. The area itself is absolutely stunning—clean mountain air, lovely views, and a great spot to disconnect and recharge. It’s the kind of place where you wish you had more time to slow down and take it all in. My family would love to come back for a longer visit and spend some real quality time here. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful mountain escape. "
