Ate at Patti's a couple of years ago. Love the place and need to get back again for those yummy pies! Well worth a visit. I need to get back to explore the furnaces again with the Saint as well. Has been a long time since I really checked them out.

Funny that you should mention "Patti's Settlement." We saw signs for it last week as we were returning home from Gatlinburg, and we both wondered what it was. There are several signs, each with a number, and at first we thought there were 20 "Patti's".
