Yes we DID!!! <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> With lots of bubbles, too. It was great fun, and having a private swimming pool (even if it wasn't very big) was lots of fun, too.
As for Chloe - I don't know what part of Tennessee you live in, but if you are close to the GA state line at all, there are some fantastic cabins in Hiawassee, GA (right beside Helen, GA) that are fabulous! My husband and I go there once a year at least to escape kiddos.
They don't have an official website - but here's some info
Cabin Fever Cottages The are 3 cabins with fireplaces (and central heat and air) jacuzzi/bath tub, full kitchen (so you save money eating out the whole time). Separate bedroom and living room. They are very cozy with a back porch that lloks out onto lake Hiawassee. Absolutely beautiful in the fall when the leaves are changing (and hard to get then, so you have to book early!)
We usually spend a day doing like a picnic in the cabin and a day spent down at Helen doing the sightseeing and shopping (I love Helen!)
But this is just an idea for you.
