This old cabin on the side of the trail is what remains of the Trail Family Cabin. It is considered to be an accurate representation of what a lot of the early pioneer cabins looked like in the Appalachian area. You can't actually go inside the cabin, but you can look around the outside, and you can even see through the log walls into the interior of it.
