Happy to report that the vintage neon sign has since been restored. Restoration of the rest of the property is in progress - keeping everything as original as possible.

[@lori4782]

That Wig Wam looked bigger in the inside than I thought. Also I think I'm gonna like these adventures away from the Smoky's , even though I love the Smoky Mountains. Anyway can't wait for next road adventure.👍👍👍👍👍

Very cool, was nicer inside than I expected for it being so old. Concrete teepee is a good place to be in a bad storm!

Thanks lissachoclate

It was a lot nicer looking inside then we thought it would be! Seems like a super cool experience!

[@americanturkeyburger4997]

@@yankeeinthesouth no problem! ✌👍 you guys are awesome

[@kelleyrucker4708]

Are you still around the area. I lived about 10 mins from there?

[@lesliejames6870]

I bet dawn never would think she would see the yellow jeep parked beside a teepee.

[@ronaldjennings8057]

That is really cool about the teepees my home is all Native American I like teepees a lot they need some more stuff out in the yard some Indian statues some Buffalo some horses a campfire you know fake stuff but yeah make it more realistic we're sure I do like your yellow Jeep because I have a yellow Goldwing I guess I'm kind of partial to Yellow but anyway really a cool place thanks for showing it to us we really appreciate that be careful and God bless 🙏PS it could use a little paint but nice👍

[@grandmap3389]

Been there!!! ♥️

[@derrickyates4318]

It’s sad a lot of the shut down attractions in that area.

[@SarahEA1]

You all are 20 subscribers away from 10,000, awesome! If you still in the area, you need to stop in Edmonton and try Minnie's Southern Cafe and try their burgers, they are amazing, but check and see when they are open, their hours of operation is kinda odd but food is delicious!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Sarah

[@blackgnat5644]

Wow you guys were only about 30 miles from where I live in Black Gnat Ky , and I have never stayed in a wigwam.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Eddie

[@dougsyd1662]

Used to live about 20 miles from there.. Great area. Maybe you should tour Mammoth Cave while there.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Stay tuned thanks Country Riads

[@kathybays910]

its so cool I have to go there👍 are you going to see Mammoth Cave to while you're down there? Have a great day.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Stay tuned thanks Larry

[@gunlover067]

The wigwam looks pretty cool and made of concrete but i don't think it would work with myself being 6ft2 and 290 they look cramped and you guys didn't look thrilled about the size. But it's about the adventures and exploring new places is what matters .i appreciate all your videos 👍👍

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Gunlover067

[@chuckhunter6098]

Cool place. Go to the Corvette museum .

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Chuck

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks ATJH TRAVELS

[@clarashoe9504]

Wow, I thought they were on route 66. It needs some power washing and paint. Avoid Mammoth Cave, it is on the New Madrid fault line, my husband tricked me.
Good to see you survived the storms.
Dawn, really liked the ending where you jumped up and down, cute!
-Clara from Florida

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Clara

[@Makermook]

Oh, hush. Mammoth Cave is almost 250 miles from the New Madrid fault line.

[@stevemorton4593]

love the video. can you post their web address i seem to be having a hard time finding it.

[@michellegrooms4965]

That was different as far as hotel goes? I know that it was old ? But if people don't stay in these hotels ? They two will be knock down?

[@yankeeinthesouth]

[@oldsjetfire8975]

We love Cave City. Last I knew there was no Pizza delver there and I find that crazy. Someone needs to open a pizza place there that will deliver. Maybe the Pizza Hut does now? I don't know

Thanks Olds Jetfire
