PF Gatlinburg cabin whole house generator
I noticed several neighbors at our PF cabin have whole house generators.
Our neighborhood has underground electrical, but the main roads are all obove ground.
I only saw the electrical go out once for a few hours this winter and the guests were very understanding.
For those of you that own a cabin in this area do you have a generator and if so how often has it been needed over the years?
With a well you lose water also when power goes out.
We do have 1 gas fireplace but it doesn't put out any significant heat.

Power outages are common but don’t last long. Whole house generators are very expensive. It’s not something I would bother with. I do love me some big John though!
