I am by nature a primitive camper. Mostly because I hate to deal with the hassle of having to reserve things, deal with people, etc. I just a few years ago started camping, and go out once or twice a year to different wilderness areas and just take a tent and some oatmeal and enjoy nature for a few days.
But this year, we're going on a honeymoon. And my significant other can barely tolerate my few days of laying in the woods, let alone a week. So I thought to myself "Hey, we'll get a cabin. Just a wood box in the woods, nothing else. It'll be cheap and easy and we both win."
... I am seriously struggling to find anything like this, and can't figure out if they don't exist or if I just am not looking in the right place. All I am finding is luxury cabins, things that cost $100+ a night. I just want a shack in the woods.
We're looking around the Cohutta national forest area, but areas north of that are ok too. We're going from Toledo and our cap for driving range is about 15 hours. Someone help me out there. Either tell me what I need to be looking for, or throw me some first-hand experiences. As much as I love to just grab a tent and lay in the woods, I want this trip to be enjoyable for BOTH of us. I just can't find anything!
Thanks.
