Elkmont, a former resort town turned ghost town is nestled in the confines of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. First settled in the early 1800s, the log cabins and the settlement eventually led to the creation of the park, before its eventual decline. However, once you get to know about its rich history, this small cluster of buildings and the surrounding wilderness seems really attractive to visitors.
