The June 25 open house at the newly-renovated Appalachian Club in Elkmont brought together former summer residents of the vacation community and folks who grew up in the area or descended from Elkmont area families. Imagine what it would have been like to grow up or at least spend summers in this cool mountain paradise and hear from the folks who experienced it first-hand in this new video.

I feel sorry for the people who bought the land and built the cabins, thinking they'd be able to pass them on to their children and grandchildren. I hope the government doesn't decide to make a park out of my house. : (
