Cades Cove must have been like the Garden of Eden for settlers and still has a working farm and mill. It is a motor loop of pure beauty and historical homes, churches, and protected wildlife. Early a.m. is best for bear sightings, but I have seen them much later in the day. (Bears have been sighted on the property and road of the cabin, too). There is a gift shop and riding stables there as well.
