  Clearing was the site of George Vanderbilt's "Buck Spring Lodge". Designed by "Biltmore" architect Richard Hunt c. 1910. Built as a Adirondack style log cabin. There were ten buildings including a main lodge, a kitchen/dining room, stable, garage, honeymoon cottage, and a playhouse/school for the Vanderbilt’s daughter. Outbuildings included a cellar and a springhouse. A trail was made connecting Biltmore and the lodge. This trail is now called the Shut-in-Trail, so called because parts of the trail were cut thru thickets of rhododendrons creating a tunnel effect and giving hikers that "shut in feeling" http://tokokuehkering.blogspot.com/ http://pastelpass.blogspot.com/
