My husband and I love the outdoors, and I'm a huge history buff. Marble Springs seemed like a great place for an easy, outdoor day trip. John, the ranger on site that day, told us all about the history of the site and colonial America. Cinnamon, the resident cat, was incredibly friendly and hung out with us while John regaled us with stories! The site is beautiful and peaceful, and I highly recommend checking out the arboretum. We had a great time despite the 90 weather!

We really enjoyed this place. The gentleman we talked with was John. He was very informative. The houses were neat and walking the grounds was so much fun.

The homestead is so well preserved with most of the materials all being original. It was fun to see the volunteers dresses in period clothes as they explained the history of each structure. You can even walk down some trails to the creek. They even offer some classes such as musket firing. This is a must see for any history buff in East Tennessee.

Neat part of local history in Knoxville Tennessee. John Sevier (1745-1815), early pioneer, governor of the failed State of Franklin, and first governor of Tennessee, built a plantation home, which he called Marble Springs, when he came to the state capital, Knoxville, in 1796. He and his wife, Bonny Kate, lived at Marble Springs at times until his death. Jeff Mullins Photography Adventures. Happy Hiking!
