In days gone by, in the working traditions of the past, farmers heartily welcomed the harvest moon in September. The round full orb, and the succession of brightly lit evenings to follow, allowed workers to gather their crops into the evening in the diminishing daylight.
Today, you are much more likely to be taking a break from work when you take in a welcome stay at Harvest Moon, a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom real log cabin, snugly nestled hillside in Homestead Estates.
This somewhat secluded location offers striking views over an expanse that is largely unbuilt and unspoiled. With coffee in hand, rock away your concerns on the open deck, as you feel the first rays of the sun’s warmth. Watch the fascinating interplay of sunlight and shadows among the foothills. At the end of a fresh air day, enjoy the sunset, and the moon rising over the undulating horizon of the mountain range beyond. Melt into the hot tub’s swirling waters, and fill your memory banks with lovely views in any season.
It’s easy to feel quickly at home in this pleasant and comfortably decorated main level living space. The dining area has seating for 6, and the adjacent, L-shaped open kitchen has all the amenities needed to create a full meal, or complementary side dishes for the steaks from the charcoal grill, or just a quick indulgent snack for movie watching. Solve that murder mystery on the HDTV mounted above the ledgestone gas fireplace, or just gaze into the flames to share a serene and quiet evening. Should there be competitive viewing tastes, choose from three other TV’s and 2 DVD/VCR combination units for screen time enjoyment throughout this home.
Alternatively, put your skills to the test in the gameroom, located in the upstairs loft area, which overlooks both the living area below, and the outside view through the cathedral wall of windows. Try your aim with a game of solids and stripes on the pool table, or a fast hand round of air hockey.
Choose from 2 separate queen bedrooms, located privately downstairs with a shared full bath. Or select the king master suite, tucked away in the upstairs eaves, to best suit your comfort.
This is truly a perfect setting to enjoy both blue sky days and moonlit nights: alone and intimate-your home away from home in the mountains.
Come catch your breath at the sight of that early evening, enormous moon rising at sunset, with its orange autumn hue. Don’t delay another gorgeous night; book your stay at Harvest Moon and enjoy a true Smoky Mountain vacation home.
