We liked seeing real buildings that were moved here from other sites. The live animals made it come to life. Our group all liked the walk and enjoyed the chance to get out of the car for a while.

The farm museum was interesting. They have chickens running around the barn. From reading other reviews there are stations at times but there were none when we stopped by on a Monday late morning.

The Mountain Farm Museum is located behind the visitors center, and was a nice surprise on our visit to Cherokee. We strolled through the outdoor museum and took lots of pictures. It was so interesting to see and read about how people lived and worked on family farms in the Smoky Mountains. I would highly recommend stopping and seeing this,... More

This is a great place to visit! Great for anyone who likes history. Very educational for all. Right next to the creek which is also beautiful to see. Lots of benches to sit along the water.

This is a lovely farm settlement area that is well maintained. Beware of "Bob". There is a lovely creek that runs along side the farm where the kids had a ball. On the farm you will learn about life over 100 years ago as it was. Many photo opportunities. Park Rangers on site. Very safe and a convenient location.

The Farm is an excellent rendition of a family farm compound dating back to the mid 1800's. Very educational (many signs explaining the building uses), along a circled gravel pathway. Located behind the... More

The farm is well tended and if you are there at the right time you can see different activities that would have happened on a working farm. Worth the visit.

So nice to see all the buildings brought in and kept up the way they were when the area was first settled. The gardens are grown as they would have been then and on occasions they have crafts people showing the way things used to be made. The elk that can be seen hanging around the nearby fields are a...

Super interesting to see an actual setup of what a homestead was like. So much of the park is abandoned buildings (which are totally cool, don't get me wrong) that it's really neat to see buildings furnished as they would have been. There's meat in the smokehouse, corn in the corncrib, plows in the barn, and bellows in the blacksmith's... More
