We went here with our 3 kids in may 2014. We enjoyed seeing the cabin and walking the trails. we saw a black bear from the car. the trails were a little over grown and sometimes hard to tell where they were. Be extra careful about poison ivy. it was everywhere on and next to the trails.

My family loves to walk the paths with creeks and streams and rocks .. this fit the bill along with some history.It is a nice and easy walk for people of all ages and skill ..

Worth the time to stop and see. You can quickly tour the cabin and the barn. The fireplace is amazing if you really take the time to look at it from the outside. There is a hiking trail adjacent to this stop. Didn't take time to walk but lots of people were.

You will not want to miss the Noah Ogle place on the Roaring Forks motor trail. This is the first cabin on the right. The old home is a beauty for pics in any season. You never know what might be in them either. ;)

I always enjoy going to this cabin. It was the first one I ever saw that was preserved from long ago. The park service has had to put on a new roof. They did try to make it seem as though it was original to the rest of the house, but you can tell it's new if you get a good look. My favorite part is walking down to the mill. I was disappointed to see that the trough had rotted and was broken. I wish the park service would put in a new one, hopefully they will if there's money for it. Our family has so many pictures from past vacations around the rocks in the river here. Everyone should visit this cabin and the surrounding land and river when they come to the Smokies. It's an easy walk and a great example of how the early settlers lived.

It was fun to explore. The nature trail was perfect for my really little kids. Grab the brochure at the beginning and take it on the nature trail. You'll have to wear a baby because the trail won't accommodate a stroller.

This cabin was one of the stops on our driving tour and it was such an interesting place to visit. We really got a feel for the history of the area and learned so much about the settlers of the area. The only downside was the graffiti on this historic building. We could not understand why anyone would do that. As our guide said, "would you go into the Louvre and draw a mustache on the Mona Lisa?"

First stop on the motor trail. the old house is very interesting. we found the trail going the back way from the barn. looks like most people take the main trail and go back after seeing the watermill. the way we went was very pretty and untouched looking. little babbling brooks and streams lead you to the watermill. absolutely peaceful!! if you love nature i recommend taking the back way around the trail.

If you love history, take time to visit the Ogle farm and cabin. The park service has done an excellent job of providing a printed guide that gives an accurate overview of how hard the life of mountain pioneers really was. Seeing how the cold winter winds must have gone around the log home was a sobering thought. The nature trail is lovely- but maybe not for anyone with limited mobility.

On my way to the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail I first came across this farmstead that once was home to the Noah Ogle family. I started out by taking the 3/4 mile nature trail (easy difficulty) that led me to an old tub mill along LeConte Creek. I peeked inside the small mill and jumped on top of rocks surrounding it outside to get a closer look at the hollowed-log flume. Then, I headed back on the loop trail which I found to be a bit scary by yourself. Every little sound I heard in the forest made me think it was a bear so I was constantly looking all around and walking at a pretty fast pace to hurry up and get back. Once back, I checked out the cabin and barn. I find it fascinating that this family from the 19th century settled here, built these structures, and lived out here in the remote wilderness by themselves. There were bears back then too, ya know.
