Secrets of the Baxter Cabin: Life in the Smoky Mountains
Step back in time to the rugged Smoky Mountains and discover the story of the Willis Baxter Cabin. Built in 1889 and standing alone today, this humble one-room log structure tells a tale of resilience, family, and a way of life that’s vanished from the modern world. Learn about Willis Baxter’s life, his family’s struggles, and what daily survival meant in this wild and beautiful landscape as we explore the cabin’s history and imagine what it was like to call this place home. You can visit this cabin for yourself- located outside Cosby, Tennessee, you can take the 1-mile hike here by starting at the Maddron Bald Trailhead.
