2011 marks the 75th Anniversary of the beginning of the work neces-

construction phase of the park facilities. The CCC (Civil Conservation
Corps) and WPA (Works Project Administration) programs of the Great
Depression served to supply the labor necessary to facilitate this task
while providing employment for men looking for a means of providing
for their families.
Currently, Fall Creek Falls State Park is one of the most, if not THE
most visited state park in Tennessee. This is an expression of the love
and gratitude for the place so many have worked to create and preserve.
The park boasts of six waterfalls (one holding the distinction of being

Fall Creek Falls State Park to the west. The pavilions throughout LBL
are inviting and are often used for family gatherings, spontaneous
community barbecues, social gatherings and popular LBL “Discovery
Weekends”.
LBL has also invested heavily in their equestrian center with equestrian
managers Lamar and Vanessa Wright offering the novice or experienced
rider a luxury equestrian paradise with a 100’ x 200’ outdoor arena
with new paddocks, pastures and miles and miles of groomed trails.
Lamar and Vanessa can board horses, break and train horses and give
professional instruction if desired. Many of the home sites offer lake
views and forest views. The new Bunkhouses at LBL, offer home sites
in the equestrian village — an extraordinary environment. The Trout
Hill Condominiums are also completed and these high end, two and
three bedroom, luxurious condominiums offer all the amenities of LBL
with low maintenance and lavish living. High end granite countertops,
sumptuous kitchens, tasteful luxury interior designs, and all units are
fully furnished. Sit and enjoy the fireplace in the living room and the
gorgeous forest views from every window. Trout Hill Condominiums
offer an outdoor patio with garden area or balconies with lake and
wooded views and are very reasonably priced. They can also go on
their vacation rental program if desired after purchasing.
One of LBL’s delightful features is their desire to develop a community

spirit and obtain feedback and involvement while they evolve the
master plan. This has created a wonderful togetherness, pioneering and
independent mind set, not found in “Big City” living. LBL has created
daylight for many seeking hope and a reality check during the past
years of adversity and economic challenge. Many folks have realized
that they don’t need to wait until retirement to enjoy the lifestyle they
truly desire in an extraordinary community by means of the fiber optic
system offered at LBL. Many are moving their satellite and/or home
offices within their dream home. This allows them to get away from
the high taxes, stressful living, hard winters and crime in too much
of main stream urban America. Come visit LBL during one of their
“Discovery Weekends”, visit them online for up-to-date events and
information or take a drive and have breakfast, lunch or a snack at the

Historic Pioneer Hall Museum at Pleasant Hill
Pioneer Hall Museum is a historical treasure tucked away in Pleasant
Hill, TN — not far from Crossville and the Fall Creek Falls area. If
you like history, medical history, or are inspired by pioneering women,
this is the place to get a glimpse of what the Cumberland Plateau was
like in the late 19th century. The Pleasant Hill Historical Society
of the Cumberland’s is a non-profit group of volunteers that have
lovingly restored these interpretive exhibits. Pioneer Hall Museum
tells five stories which cover the skirmish during the Civil War, the
founding of the Pleasant Hill Academy, pioneering Doctor May Cravath
Wharton, the Arts and Crafts movement and Life on the Cumberland
Plateau. Recently, the site was dedicated as part of Tennessee’s
Civil War Trail for the depiction of the 1863 skirmish that occurred
on the corner of what is now Main Street and Lake Road. Pleasant
Hill Academy was a mission school established in 1884 by the New
England based American Missionary Association (AMA) of the
Congregational Church. The Reverend Benjamin Dodge accomplished
the establishment. The Academy offered accredited college preparatory
courses and groomed teachers for most of the rural schools in the
region. The rugged terrain of the Upper Cumberland and the values
of the Academy also taught social, economic and spiritual culture.
Reverend Dodge was described as a man who “pulled down a church
building from the heavens” and “saw things that were invisible” to
those around him due to his faith that his prayers would be answered.
Following his tenacious spirit was one of the most pioneering and
gutsy women of the times, Dr. May Cravath Wharton — a graduate
of University of Michigan Medical Center and the lovely wife of the
principal of the Academy. They came to Pleasant Hill in 1917. During
the flu epidemic of 1918, she extended her care beyond the students
and faculty of the Academy and traveled to families in the rugged
mountains to care for them. After the passing of her husband in 1920, the first two room hospital in Pleasant Hill, which in turn led to the
she was begged to stay and serve the community as their doctor. Dr. creation of the Uplands Sanatorium, the Cumberland Medical Center,
Wharton was tireless, relentless and a true visionary. This led to the Wharton Nursing Home and Uplands Retirement Village. Her
motto was “A Dream Has No Dimensions”. This lingers on today with
her bookmarks passed out at the museum. This was truly remarkable
in this rural mountainous region with little resources available. Her
prominent brother tried several times to persuade her to come home.
He offered to build her a hospital and medical facility; however, she
was content serving folks in this rural community and stayed until
her passing. Some of the skills that were taught at the Academy like
woodworking, sculpting, weaving, and furniture making are displayed
at the museum. Today, these trade and craft talents continue to be
done by some of the local residents of the Uplands Retirement Village
and surrounding area. There are some significant and amazing pieces
displayed that have won numerous awards over the years. It is a great
place to see the talents of these students. Life on the Cumberland
Plateau was tough, but the upstairs general store, the school and trades
rooms, a room in the dormitory, also give good examples of what
times would have been like at the Pleasant Hill Academy. Hundreds
of students have passed through the Academy. In 2009 the Alumni
and the Pleasant Hill Historical Society held their 125th Anniversary
Picnic. They marveled at the progress that had been made at the
museum to display the wonderful exhibits and photographs telling these
five stories. Pioneer Hall Museum is open May 1 through October
31, on Wednesday from 10-4 and Sunday from 2-5, or other times by
reservation by calling, 931-277-5313 or 931-277-3111. Don’t forget to

Dining and Activities

Spotlight on McMinnville
The annual Smokin’ in McMinnville
event will surely become a “must
go to” BBQ destination for avid
barbecue fans. David Rutherford,
City Manager of McMinnville, had
a vision of a festive, fun BBQ event
that would showcase the local talent
and bring in others from around the
country. Following a visit by award
winning BBQ Pitmaster, Arlie Bragg,
the opportunity presented itself for
McMinnville to be included in the
prestigious Kansas City Barbecue Circuit (KCBC). They jumped on
this tremendous honor. Of course David had to find a co-pilot — as
every event and task needs a skilled right hand person. Low and behold
he found it in his highly decorated Chief of Police, Charlie Sewell.
Charlie had retired from the Atlanta area several years ago following a
successful career of protecting citizens through various capacities. He
decided that McMinnville was to be his new home. Chief of Police
Sewell (he likes to be called Charlie) loves to barbecue and was up for
the challenge. So, David and Charlie decided that if they were going
to do this, they were going to do it right by having the best facilities
for the participants (some of whom drive hundreds, even thousands of
miles to be part of the KCBC circuit and showcase their meat). They
allotted generous 20’ x 40’ spots, provided ample electrical and water
outlets, air conditioned shower facilities and plenty of hospitable
service. The first year (2009) they had over 34 teams! In 2010, 38 teams
came for the challenge. It was a huge success. There is some serious
judging that takes place with KCBC bringing in their own professional
judges. The McMinnville event is the Backyard Contest where the win-
ner gains points towards the prestigious Jack Daniels Invitational BBQ
championship in Lynchburg, TN. The winning purse is serious money
— around $15K. The contestants are also serious with their huge rigs
and elaborate cooking equipment. McMinnville is already known on
the circuit as the friendliest and exceptionally accommodating location.
Many have fallen in love with the vibrant downtown with the various
shops, restaurants and precious people. David is proud of McMinnville
and the community. A lot of work has been done over the years to
revitalize the downtown area, to showcase the many assets — including
being the “nursery capital of the world” and nestled in one of the most
beautiful regions of Tennessee with rolling hills, awesome geological
wonders and plenty of nearby lakes. The Smokin’ in McMinnville team
loves to host their guests and sample food from the various contestants,
but they also love to showcase their local talent. “Best of the Butts”
is a great community event held on Thursday night of the cook off,
where for $5.00 you can sample ten of the different BBQ participants
cooking. For ten dollars, you can add on seven homemade sides such
as corn casserole, baked beans, coleslaw, etc. There is live music
on Friday night with a little something for everyone — shaved ice,
crafters, inflatables, volleyball competition, and so much more. This
is a great event to try some tasty barbecue, be part of the excitement
on the famous KCBC trail (watch out Bobby Flay) and enjoy small
town community hospitality. Come enjoy beautiful McMinnville and
Smokin’ in McMinnville. Enjoy! Smokin’ in McMinnville takes place
the 2nd weekend of August and more information can be found on www.

Upper Cumberland-Dale Hollow Lake

Upper Cumberland-Dale Hollow Lake
Dale Hollow Lake is a relatively
unspoiled hidden jewel situated on
the northern border of eastern middle
Tennessee – just a short drive from
the Fall Creek Falls region. It is a
wonderful day trip for those looking
for a larger lake than that available
at Fall Creek Falls State Park. There
you can find over 620 pristine acres
of glistening water – some of the
cleanest in the northern hemisphere.
It is world renowned as a fishing
destination with records for 3 of the
top 10 largest smallmouth bass ever caught. It has also been voted as
one of the best places to “Float a Houseboat” by USA TODAY. It
is also becoming known for the population of American Bald Eagles
that winter there – and some are beginning to stay year round. Sunset
Marina & Resort is conveniently located just off of Hwy. 111. They
offer a full service marina with houseboat and cabin lodging available,
a full service restaurant, small watercraft, pontoon, and boat rentals,
a wonderful ship’s store and so much more. Cabins are located near
water’s edge for maximum pleasure. Sunsets from Sunset Marina are
sometimes breathtaking. Sunset Restaurant is a floating restaurant
with views out onto the water – and the gorgeous sunsets. Recently
(September 10th to be exact – the day before the 9th Anniversary of
9-11), Tom Allen, marina manager, had the occasion to spot one of
those majestic eagles in the trees near the dock. He was able to take a
pontoon boat out on the water and take some awesome pictures of the
bird without disturbing it before it moved on. There is an abundance of
birds and other wildlife all around the lake. A black bear was spotted
crossing the lake near Sunset a few years ago. There has also been an
elk wandering the neighborhoods around Dale Hollow for the past few
months. Whitetail deer are abundant and can be spotted from the lake
at certain times of the year, along with bobcats, turkeys, and other small
animals. Dale Hollow Lake is a photographer’s paradise! Make plans
now to come visit for the day to relax and enjoy the sites and sounds of
the lake, whether you just come for one of Chef Zoom’s awesome spe-
cials, fishing, bird watching, boating or fishing. Tell Tom and his crew
that you read about them here. They’re always glad to see you!

throughout. Interior and exterior balconies with
wrought iron railings leading to the patio overlook-
ing the vineyards and the grand staircase leading to the upper floor con-
tribute to the overall experience. All were designed with an attention to
detail that seems to speak to the heart of all visitors.
The winery, which can be viewed from the tasting room on the main
level, is housed in the lower level of the building and features a large
tank room for fermenting the wines. Twenty stainless steel tanks of
various sizes and an assortment of oak barrels are currently in use. This
is where the winemaker, Dominic Burke, utilizes his skills to ferment
wines specifically for DelMonaco Winery & Vineyards. Dominic,
a native of South Africa, has produced award winning wines in New
Zealand, France, Austria, Australia and South Africa and now in Ten-
nessee. The bottling, bonding and storage rooms complete the 9000 sq.
ft. lower level. Another 9000 sq. ft. complete the first and second floors
of the building.
The main entrance to the building opens to the Gift Shop and Tasting
Room. Here guests can enjoy FREE tastings of the award-winning
wines produced on the property, and purchase unique gifts chosen es-
pecially for the wine lover. FREE facility and vineyard tours are also
available. After purchasing wine, guests can enjoy it in any of the Bella
Rooms or on the back patio overlooking the scenic vineyards.
The Bella Rooms were designed to host an array of special events. The
3500 sq. ft. Bella seats up to 300 people and features a custom designed
vineyard motif floor, marble columns, expansive palladium windows,
an elegant dual staircase surrounding the stage, and three large glass
doors that open out for viewing the vineyards. The Bella is compli-
mented by a ten foot wide interior balcony and a 12 foot wide exterior
balcony. A special room, comfortably accommodating, is available for
a bride and her entourage or a guest speaker. Access to the caterer’s
kitchen completes the Bella.
Three other meeting rooms on the second level are also part of the
Bella Rooms, and provide users with an atmosphere of tranquility and
relaxation. The McNellis Room accommodates up to 80 people com-
fortably. The Johnson Room seats 50 and is complimented by a But-
ler’s Pantry. The Jackson Room seats up to 25. Each room has its own
uniqueness from views of the vineyards to balcony access.
Folks can also take walking tours of the manicured vineyards.
Currently, four varieties of grapes are planted. Each has their own
unique flavor, aroma, and planting pattern. Within the walking
tour, you can stop on the bridge between the two vineyards; relax at
the picnic table or in the swing underneath the huge oak tree while
enjoying the scenery and serenity — thus encompassing the essence of
the full wine experience where, as Barbara said, “It all starts with the
VINE”.

“Who wouldn’t want to live here?”

“What excuse could there possibly be to not want to live sur-
rounded by these beautiful mountains?”
I’m Dwight O’Neal and I, along with my wife Hannah, own and
have developed the Collins River Golf Course and The Reserve at Collins
River. I know that there are many excuses folks can come up with not
to buy one of our premium home sites during these recessionary times.
However, we’re ready to help any way we can to ease your doubts, from
financing to finding the right contractor to build your dream home. If
you would like to live in a southern paradise on a champi-
onship golf course then call me and let me put your
doubts to rest.
