For a primitive cabin experience, rent the Swan Cabin on the Cheoah District for $25 per night. This 1931 three-room log cabin has one and a half stories and includes a loft. Nine beds are offered, which include three double bunk frames, two single bed frames and a double bed frame. Each are strung with rope to accommodate sleeping bags. A pit toilet is located adjacent to the cabin. There is no running water at the cabin, although a nearby spring may provide a water source after being boiled or treated. A picnic table, grill and fire ring are located outside. Guests must bring their own water for drinking, cooking and cleaning purposes, as well as lanterns or flashlights, bedding, towels, cooking and eating gear, food, garbage bags, toilet paper and other necessities.
