Hi! The holidays are extremely difficult for me and my husband said we should go away this year. Problem is we have a dog that has to come with us so it will have to be car travel. A little about us, we are from Southeast Wisconsin, (1 hour north of Chicago). We would like to find somewhere to road trip, but not over 1000 miles one way. A cozy cabin with a hot tub, nature for walking our dog, not alot of hustle and bustle. I'm not really sure where to start. We have never been to Tennessee or the Carolinas. Any helpful insight on our trip would be great. Any other suggestions are welcome too! Thank you!
