ABOUT

For decades, the members of the Cave Spring Historical Society have worked tirelessly to promote the history of this special little village. Dedicated to the preservation and restoration of our historic buildings, we have successfully restored the three historic buildings in Rolater Park, the historic Presbyterian Church, and now we are working to save the recently discovered log cabin hiding beneath the old Green Hotel.

CABIN

Help Us Save the Cabin

In 2010, a 200 year old cabin was discovered beneath the outer boards of the old Green Hotel. With hand hewn logs, the cabin predates the town itself and is very likely Cherokee in origin. The Society is working feverishly to save this historic structure and protect it while efforts are underway to have it professionally restored, dated, and studied. Please help our efforts. Your donation could make the difference as we fight against time and the elements to save this structure from ruin.

The Legend of the Courage Wolf

Written by acclaimed novelist (Bertha) and columnist (Rome News-Tribune) Mike Ragland, Courage Wolf was inspired by two things: The true story of Cherokee boys finding the preserved body of a Wolf in the ancient cave in Cave Spring circa1800s and the Cherokee legend of the two wolves that live in the heart of all men. Ragland has turned these elements into a masterful tale of mystery, love, and redemption that will lift up children and adults alike. Illustrated characters include some of current Cave Springs most loved storytellers. Photographs of the Cherokee-built Cave Spring Log Cabin are included. HURRY: Quantities of this precious keepsake edition are truly limited. Order several and order NOW.
