Deer doe and fawn graze in Cades Cove beside John Oliver Cabin, which was built circa 1822, one of the oldest structures in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, USA. Oliver fit the log corners with half dovetail notches draining outwards to discourage rot. The cabin roof was fitted with 3,000 handmade shakes (wooden shingles). Cades Cove, once home to numerous settlers, is an isolated valley located in the East Tennessee section of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, USA. Today Cades Cove is the most popular destination for visitors to the park, attracting over two million visitors a year, due to its well preserved homesteads, scenic mountain views, and abundant display of wildlife.
