Built in 1866, the Elijah Oliver Place is one of the oldest surviving structures in Cades Cove. After the original farm was destroyed during the U.S. Civil War, Elijah Oliver rebuilt and created this historic farmhouse. Today, visitors can tour the house, gaining insights into the past while appreciating its significance as a National Register of Historic Places site.
The little room on the side was built for guests.
