The famous Shamrock home, where President Johnson once stayed, offers 2 bedrooms, the Bunk house has another 2 bedrooms above the garage/workshop, and the Trout stream house offers 2 bedrooms as well. Sit on the old-time rocking chair front porch and listen to the wind blowing through the ancient forests, to the birds singing in the majestic hardwoods, with the peaceful sounds of the rushing waters of Rocky bottom creek as she sings the song of the mountains. All this will combine to provide a very calming peace. This home is almost 100 years old, and will speak to your soul, if you will but listen.
